Check local fire restrictions, campground rules and land manager advice before adding fuel or lighting the stove. Fill the burner carefully with methylated spirits and do not overfill it. Wipe away any spilled fuel and move the fuel bottle well away from the stove before lighting. Place the burner into the stove support and make sure the pot support sits securely. Light the stove carefully, then place suitable cookware on the support once the flame is stable. Use the flame regulation cover to reduce the flame when needed. Use the extinguishing cover to snuff the flame when cooking is finished. Let the stove cool completely before refuelling, fitting the lid or packing it away. Safety Warnings for New Zealand Always check current fire bans, DOC rules, national park rules, campground rules and local council restrictions before use. Do not use this stove where liquid fuel stoves, open flames or outdoor cooking appliances are not permitted. Use outdoors only and never use inside a tent, hut, vehicle, awning or other confined space. Alcohol flames can be difficult to see in daylight, so treat the stove as lit until it is fully cool. Never refuel the stove while it is burning or still hot. Keep children, pets and loose clothing away from the stove while it is in use. Do not leave the stove unattended while burning. Keep water, sand or another suitable extinguishing method close by before lighting. Avoid use in strong wind, extreme fire danger or very dry vegetation areas. Carry fuel in a proper fuel bottle and do not rely on the stove body as a long-distance fuel container. Benefits of Using an Alcohol Stove Carry less weight on short trips because you can take only the amount of fuel you expect to use. Avoid packing a full gas canister when a measured amount of methylated spirits is enough for the trip. Reduce empty gas canister waste by using refillable fuel storage instead of disposable gas cylinders. Keep your cooking setup simple, quiet and compact for solo trips, overnight camps and emergency backup use. Use a fuel type that is commonly available in New Zealand. Pack a practical backup cooker for longer walks where a gas cooker is not the only option you want to rely on. Common Questions Q: Is this alcohol stove suitable for tramping in New Zealand?
