Troubleshooting
Fuel can does not ignite
Ensure the wick is properly exposed and saturated. If the wick is dry, it may not light. Ensure there is sufficient fuel in the can. Check that the lighter/match is functioning and applied directly to the wick.
Flame is too low or inconsistent
The wick may be too short or damaged. Ensure the can is placed on a level surface. If the can is near empty, the flame may diminish. Replace with a new can if the wick is significantly degraded.
Container is too hot to touch
While designed to be cool-touch, proximity to direct flame or prolonged exposure to high ambient temperatures might increase surface heat. Use caution and heat-resistant gloves if necessary. Ensure the can is not directly exposed to other heat sources.
