Opsætning

Filling the Lighter with Fluid

For optimal performance, use only genuine Zippo lighter fluid.

  1. Fjern den indre enhed fra lighterhuset.
  2. Løft filtpuden i bunden af ​​den indre enhed for at blotlægge emballagematerialet.
  3. Slowly saturate the packing material with Zippo lighter fluid. Do not overfill. Stop filling when the fluid reaches the top of the packing material or begins to change color.
  4. Insert the inner unit back into the lighter case.
  5. Wipe off any excess fluid from the lighter and your hands before igniting. Ensure the fluid container is closed and stored away from the lighter.

Udskiftning af flintstenen

A new flint is required when the lighter fails to produce a spark.

  1. Fjern den indre enhed fra lighterhuset.
  2. Unscrew the flint spring from the bottom of the inner unit using a small screwdriver or the edge of the lighter lid.
  3. Carefully remove the old flint (if any) and the flint spring.
  4. Insert a new Zippo flint into the empty flint tube.
  5. Replace the flint spring and screw it in tightly. Do not overtighten.

Betjeningsvejledning

Tænding af lighteren

  2. Spin the flint wheel downwards with your thumb, striking it against the flint. This action will produce a spark and ignite the wick.

Slukning af flammen

  1. To extinguish the flame, simply close the lid. Do not blow out the flame. The lid will cut off the oxygen supply, causing the flame to go out.

Opretholdelse

Udskiftning af væge

Replace the wick when it becomes discolored or the lighter fails to light consistently.

  1. Fjern den indre enhed fra lighterhuset.
  2. Remove the flint, flint spring, and felt pad (as described in the "Replacing the Flint" section).
  3. Using tweezers or small pliers, carefully pull the old wick out through the chimney hole from the top.
  4. Thread a new Zippo wick through the chimney hole from the top, pulling it until the white wick is visible at the top of the chimney.
  5. Bend the wick into a serpentine (S-shape) pattern within the packing material, ensuring it makes good contact with the packing material for optimal fluid absorption.
  6. Udskift pakningsmaterialet, filtpuden, flinten og flintfjederen.
  7. Trim vægen, så den er i niveau med toppen af ​​skorstenen.

Almen pleje

  • Keep the lighter clean by wiping it with a soft cloth.
  • Opbevar lighteren på et køligt, tørt sted, når den ikke er i brug.
