How to Refill Lighters

Refill your lighter, but try to give up smoking.

Lighters allow you to quickly and effectively start a flame. Many people use lighters for smoking cigarettes or cigars. You can also use a lighter to start a campfire or charcoal barbecue. Always exercise caution when using a lighter. The same holds true for refilling your lighter. Only refill your lighter if the product label states that the lighter can be refilled. Do not attempt to refill a standard lighter intended for one-time use.

Things You'll Need

• Screwdriver
• Lighter refill can

Instructions

1. Allow the lighter to fully cool off before refilling it.

2. Set the flame height adjuster to the minimum level. Turn the adjuster clockwise to do so. Depending on your lighter, you may need a screwdriver to turn this adjuster.

3. Push the refilling valve. Keep it depressed until the hissing sound stops. Position the lighter as far from your body as possible. Turn the lighter upside down.

4. Shake the refill can. Press the stem of the refill can directly into the refill valve of the lighter. Hold the refill can in this position for about five seconds.

5. Remove the refill can. Wait five minutes. Readjust the flame height valve to your desired position. You can now use your refilled lighter.
