There are serious hazards associated with using this stove and fuel. Accidental
fire, explosion, and misuse can cause death, serious burns, and property dam-
age. You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of those in your
group. Please use good judgment.
This stove is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY. Never use this stove in a tent, vestible,
car, house, or inside any enclosed area. This stove consumes oxygen and
produces carbon monoxide gas, which is poisonous and has no odor. This
stove can easily ignite nearby combustible materials and flammable liquids or
vapors. If you use this stove in an enclosed area you can be killed or seriously
burned.
Keep stove and canister away from other heat sources. Never use any kind of
windscreen. Never use cookware or an Outback Oven™with a diameter larger
than 8 inches (20.3 cm). If you expose the canister to high heat, it will explode
and you can be killed or seriously burned.
Never let children use this stove. Keep children at least 10 feet (3 m) away
from the stove and cooking area, and supervise them at all times.
READ, UNDERSTAND, AND FOLLOW ALL instructions and warnings in this
manual before using this stove. Failure to follow warnings and instructions can
result in death, serious burns or other injury, and property damage.

Do not attempt to use this stove: (1) before reading and fully understanding this
Instruction Manual; (2) if you are not prepared or comfortable attending to a
burning and/or hot stove at all times; (3) if you observe leaking fuel; or (4) if you
observe any condition with the stove system or in the surrounding environment
that would make operation of an open flamed device dangerous. Failure to fol-
low these directions can cause an unsafe situation leading to fire, burns, severe
injury or death.
This stove is designed for the outside (i.e., not within enclosed spaces of any kind;
e.g., tents) boiling of water or cooking of food only—never use it for any other
purpose. Use of stove within any enclosed space, or for a purpose other than boil-
ing water or cooking food can cause fire, burns, severe injury or death.

specific to your stove model. Use of stove with missing or broken parts, or with
replacement parts not specific to your stove model, can result in an unsafe situation

Never over tighten fuel canister to stove. Over tightening can damage
stove or canister causing fuel to leak. Leaking fuel can cause fire, burns,
severe injury or death.
Use extreme caution when using stove in temperatures below freezing. In
freezing temperatures O-rings can stiffen and leak fuel. Always check for
fuel leaks before and after lighting stove. Use of a leaking stove can cause
fire, burns, severe injury or death.
Keep children far away from stove and fuel—Cascade Designs, Inc. rec-
ommends no less than 10 feet (3+ meters). Never leave a burning or hot
stove unattended. An unattended stove can lead to fire and/or a situation
where children, pets, or the unwary can be burned, injured, or killed.
WARNING
Keep combustibles at least 4 feet (1.2 meters) away from the top and
sides of a burning stove, or a stove that you are in the process of lighting.
Keep flammable liquids and vapors at least 25 feet (7.6 meters) away
from the top and sides of a burning stove, or a stove that you are in the
process of lighting. This stove can ignite combustible materials, flammable
liquids and vapors creating a situation where fire, burns, severe injury or
death can result.
Never attempt lighting stove if flame adjuster valve is left open. If flame
adjuster valve is left open, close it immediately and thoroughly ventilate
area before lighting stove. Failure to ventilate area can result in an explo-
sion that can cause fire, burns, severe injury or death.
WARNING
Never move a burning or hot stove. Always extinguish stove and cool for
at least 5 minutes before moving. Moving a burning or hot stove can cause
fire, burns, severe injury or death. Never use cookware or an Outback
Oven™ with a diameter greater than 8 inches (20.3 centimeters). Never
place and operate two or more stoves together. Never operate stove with
empty or dry cookware. Never use non-MSR®reflectors or diffusers. Use
of stove in any of the proceeding manners can result in the fuel canister
exploding and causing fire, burns, severe injury or death. Never use cook-
ware of any size that is ill-suited and/or inappropriate for use with stove,
particularly its pot supports (e.g., cookware with a convex or concave
bottom, some enameled cookware, etc.). Use of stove with ill-suited and/
or inappropriate cookware can result in cookware and/or stove instability
and a situation where hot cookware and/or cookware contents can spill
and cause fire, burns, severe injury or death.
WARNING
Always disconnect stove from canister before storing it. Failure to discon-
nect stove from canister before storing may cause fuel to leak and cause
fire, burns, severe injury or death. Always store fuel canisters in a well-
ventilated location away from any possible heat or ignition source such
as: water heaters, stoves, pilot lights, or furnaces; or where temperatures
exceed 120 F (49 C). Storing fuel canisters near any heat or ignition
source or where temperatures exceed 120 F (49 C), can result in the can-
ister exploding and causing fire, burns, severe injury or death.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
To avoid being killed or seriously injured, READ, UNDERSTAND, AND FOLLOW
ALL warnings and instructions in this manual before you use this stove.
This stove is a lightweight, compact device made for cooking outdoors. Please
consult with your local outdoor retailer to learn more about cooking outdoors. Seek
qualified instruction before you venture outdoors.
You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of those in your group. This
manual is not intended to replace your good judgment.
Fuel Canister Safety
This stove uses a liquid pressurized gas (LPG) canister that is highly flammable and
explosive. Use only MSR®premium blend canister fuel, 70 Butane/30 Propane
or 80 IsoButane/20 Propane mix, certified to EN 417 (4 ounces/113 g or 8
ounces/227 g). For any fuel canister, follow this safety information:
• Listenandsmellforleakinggas.Leakinggasisaserioushazard.LPGis
invisible and odorless, and strong odorant additives can fade over time.
Leaks are not always detectable by smell. Do not use this stove if it is leak-
ing, damaged, or does not operate properly.
• Checkthatthestoveandfuelcanisterconnectionissecureandtight.Ifthe
connection does not look or feel secure, or if you hear or smell leaking gas,
do not use stove or canister. Move stove to a well-ventilated area away from
any ignition source to locate and stop the leak. Only check for leaks out-
doors using soapy water. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame.
• Onlychangethecanisteroutsideandawayfrompeople.
• Neverusefuelcanisterslargerthan8ounces(227g)ormorethan4inches
(10 cm) in height, because oversized canisters increase stove instability.
• Checkthesealsbeforeconnectinganewfuelcanistertothestove.Donot
use stove if seals are damaged or worn.
• Keepstoveandfuelcanisterawayfromotherheatsources.Ifyouexposethe
fuel canister to high heat, the canister will explode or leak and you can be
killed or seriously burned.
• Followallwarningsonfuelcanisterregardinguseandstorage.
WARNING
Never place your head or body above the stove while lighting, or cook-
ing. Because stove maintains an open flame, placement of head or body
above stove is an unsafe practice that can cause fire, burns, severe injury
or death.
