C - OPERATION

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS :

GB
Do not use your stove at a distance closer than 20
cm to a wall or flammable object, nor closer than
1 metre to a ceiling.
WARNING: Accessible parts may be very hot.
Keep young children away.
Never touch the pan support (2) or the burner
during or just after using the equipment.
Never use the equipment without the pan support
(see fig. 2).
Position the equipment on a stable, horizontal
surface and do not move when in use.
Do not use a container smaller than 12 cm or lar-
ger than 20 cm in diameter.
In the event of a leak (smell of gas), close all val-
ves.
Wait for the stove to cool down completely before
handling it to return it to its place of storage.
After use, always close the valve on the regulator
or gas cylinder.
Do not move the device when it is in operation.
1) Lighting up (fig. 3)
- Open the gas supply (valve or lever on regulator).
- Present a flame close to the burner and turn the bur-
ner control knob (1) anti-clockwise.
- Adjust the flame to receptacle dimensions by turning
the wheel. Do not use receptacles with a diameter
larger than 20 cm.
- If you would like to fine-tune the simmering tempera-
ture, adjust the flame level by turning the wheel.
- In case of strong wind, place the device with the lid
facing the wind (Base Camp Lid model) so that the
wind does not make the burner flame flare up beyond
the pan bottom.
- When cooking is finished, turn the wheel (1) corres-
ponding to the burner in a clockwise direction to the
( ) position (fig. 6).

2) SHUTTING DOWN

- Close the valve on the regulator or gas cylinder.
- When the flames have gone out, close the stove val-
ves (1) by turning the control knobs to position ( )
(fig. 6).
D - REMOVING OR CHANGING THE GAS
CYLINDER
- Check that the gas cylinder valve or regulator lever is
in the closed position.
- Disconnect the regulator from the gas cylinder.
- Install the new gas cylinder.
- Connect the regulator to the new gas cylinder (check
the condition of the regulator seal, before connecting
it to the gas cylinder).
E - STORAGE - SERVICING
1) Stove
Ensure that your stove is regularly maintained, and it
will give you many years of excellent service.
- Do not clean the stove while it is in operation. Wait for
it to cool down, to avoid burning yourself on the hot
parts (pan supports, burners).

- When cleaning, be careful to avoid clogging the bur-
ner holes. If the holes are clogged, for example by
food that has spilled over, open them with a non-
metal brush.
- Clean greasy parts with soap and water or a non-
abrasive detergent product.
- The pan holder (2) can be removed. You can take it
off to make cleaning the device easier.
To remove the pan support, pull it upwards. To repo-
sition it, insert the legs located on each site of the
support into the holes found on each side of the
device (see figure 5).
- The lid may also be removed (Base Camp Lid
model). To take the lid off (fig. 7), hold it on both sides
and open it. Pull the lid upwards, then close it slowly
to unhook it.
- To reposition the lid (Base Camp Lid model) (fig. 8),
insert the tabs located at the rear of the lid into the
slots at the rear of the device. Open the lid comple-
tely, then close it without forcing.
- Store the device in a dry, ventilated place.
- If the device has not been used for 30 days, check to
see that cobwebs are not clogging the burner hose
openings; this could lead to decreased burner effi-
ciency or to a dangerous ignition of gas outside the
burner.
2) Flexible hose or hose between the regulator and
the stove
- Regularly check the condition of the hose/hose and
change it if it shows signs of ageing or cracking.
- France, if the expiry date printed on the hose or hose
has been reached, the flexible hose and collars must
be replaced by components meeting the require-
ments of standard XP D 36-110.
- Follow the assembly instructions supplied with these
new models, the length of which must not exceed
1.50 m, and proceed as described in Section A - 2).
- If your stove is likely to be left unused for a long
period, disconnect the gas cylinder.
