Using your Danesco cooking torch is easy. First, make sure the safety lock is on and insert butane fuel (not included). To turn on the torch, unlock the safety lock and press the ignition button. You can adjust the flame size with the control knob for precise cooking. When using it for caramelizing sugars on desserts like crème brulée or for browning meats, keep the torch moving to ensure even heating. Remember to always keep the torch at a safe distance from your face and flammable materials. After use, turn off the torch and lock the safety lock. Store the torch in a cool, dry place. Do not expose it to high temperatures or direct sunlight. If the torch isn't working properly, check the fuel level and the ignition system. If problems persist, contact customer service.
