All fuels contain contaminants that can block the nozzle in the
burner. The Optimus Nova+ has a built-in cleaning needle that
is used to clear the nozzle with ease. Move the multitool a few
times directly beneath the burner’s base nut. The magnets on
this tool force the needle to move, thereby clearing the nozzle.
Get into the habit of cleaning the stove before you start
preparing food. This will reduce the risk of the nozzle in the
burner getting blocked. See the section entitled “Cleaning and
maintenance” if the stove functions poorly even though it has
been cleared using the multitool.

Fold out the pot supports on the burner.
Make sure the fuel control valve is closed.
It gets very hot under the stove, so remember to place the stove on a
fi rm base which cannot catch fi re.
Make sure that the control valve is closed before pumping pressure
into the bottle.
Do not use pans with a diameter that exceeds 280 mm (11 inches). The
weight of the pan plus food should not exceed 4 kg (8.8 lbs.).
WARNING! Do not place the stove on or near fl ammable materials. Avoid
exposing the fuel bottle to heat. The bottle may explode if it is exposed to
heat. Only use wind screens approved by Optimus for use together with the
Optimus Nova+. Never cover the fuel bottle with the wind screen. There must
always be a clearance of at least 15 cm (6 inches) between the fuel bottle
and a pot or pan on the stove to prevent overheating of the fuel bottle.
