Security
This stove complies with standard EN521.
It must be used exclusively with butane-propane mixing cartridges complying with standard EN417.
Decathlon cartridges Forclaz (100g, 230g, 450g) comply with standard EN417 and are compatible with Decathlon stoves MT100, MT500 and MT500 Déporté - Forclaz.
Read the instructions and precautions for use in the leaflet enclosed with the stove.
Setting up the stove and connecting a gas cartridge :
When installing a gas cartridge, always operate in a well-ventilated area, preferably outdoors, and never in the presence of flames, heat sources, sparks, people or flammable materials.
Check that the gas inlet to your stove is properly closed, and that the gasket is present and in good condition.
Make sure the cartridge is on a stable horizontal surface. Do not shake it.
Setting up the stove and connecting a gas cartridge (continued) :
Hold the device and screw in the cartridge by hand, turning it clockwise as far as it will go, taking care not to damage the thread.
Follow the same instructions when dismantling the cartridge.
It may be dangerous to use cartridges other than Decathlon brand - Forclaz.
It is normal for a small "pchit" (escaping gas) of less than 2 seconds to occur when connecting the cartridge to the stove.

Ease of use
4-leg pan support, ideal for all cookers
Installation:
Place the cooker on the cartridge to align the screw threads. Screw on. Set up on a flat, unobstructed surface. Open the flow control tap, engage the piezo (several times if necessary). Your stove is now lit.
We advise you to light your stove with a popote in place above the burner.
Take care to ensure the stability of the assembly.
Heating time
Our in-house tests give us values that more closely reflect actual conditions of use. In fact, we have tested our stoves with Trek 500 stainless steel stoves, filled with 1 liter of water.
Result real power: heating time to boil 1 liter of water: 3 min 48. Real power: 2200 watts. Actual consumption: 158g/h. .
The results and performance of different stoves must be analyzed on a comparable basis (same conditions and parameters).
Heating time (continued)
The heating time of a stove is subject to a normative process that is mandatory for EU certification, but does not necessarily reflect actual conditions of use.
EN521 standard parameters (heat output):
Propane gas at 3 bar pressure, without container.
Rated output: 4.1kW / 293g/h
Performance and consumption
Numerous parameters influence the capacity and performance of your stove: atmospheric pressure, wind and humidity, etc., and can therefore affect boiling temperature, heating time and the number of liters heated per cartridge.
We strongly recommend using a windscreen to optimize your gas consumption.
The performance of a stove is therefore determined by the ratio of gas consumed to heating speed.
Compatibility
Please note that this stove is not compatible with Coleman brand cartridges. Our design choices do not allow us to guarantee compatibility between the Coleman valve and the connector on our stove. There is no safety risk, but the cartridge valve will not open.
