Refilling a gas lighter requires precision but is manageable. Start by ensuring the lighter is empty and holding it upside down. Locate the refill inlet on the bottom of the lighter. Take your refill canister, ensuring it’s the correct type for your lighter. Attach the canister nozzle to the inlet and press down firmly for about 5 seconds. Repeat if necessary but avoid overfilling. Wait for the gas to settle for a minute before attempting to light. Always refill in a well-ventilated area away from open flames.
