TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS

Safety

This stove meets standard EN521.

It must be used only with butane/propane cartridges compliant with standard EN417.



The Decathlon Forclaz cartridges (100g, 230g, 450g) comply with the EN417 standard and are compatible with the Decathlon - Forclaz MT100, MT500 and MT500 Déporté stoves.



Read the instructions and precautions for use attached to the stove.

Setting up the stove and connecting a gas cartridge:

To set up a gas cartridge, always do so in a ventilated place, preferably outdoors and never near a flame, heat source, spark, individuals or flammable materials.

Check that your stove's gas inlet is properly closed and check the location and condition of the leakproof seal.



Make sure that the cartridge is on a stable flat surface. Do not shake.

Setting up the stove and connecting a gas cartridge (continued):

Hold the device and screw in the cartridge by hand by turning it clockwise until it stops, being careful not to damage the screw thread.

Follow the same instructions to take off the cartridge.



It can be dangerous to use cartridges other than Decathlon - Forclaz.



It's normal to hear a small fizzing sound (escaping gas) for less than 2 seconds when connecting the cartridge to the stove.

Weight and dimensions

Stove weight: 85 g

Bag weight: 15 g

Dimensions: Ø 14 x H 9.5 cm

Folded dimensions: L 9.5 x H 9.5 cm



Weights, volumes & dimensions may vary slightly due to production tolerances.

Ease of use

Pot stand on 3 legs, perfectly adapted to Forclaz Trek 500 stainless steel pans (Ø 13.5 cm).

Installation: Place the stove on the cartridge to align the threads. Screw. Assemble the stove on a flat, unobstructed surface. Open the flow control valve, operate the piezo (several times if necessary). Your stove is lit.

We recommend you light your stove with a pan in place above the burner.

Make sure the assembly is stable.

Heating time

Our internal tests give us values that reflect the actual conditions of use. In fact, we tested our stoves with Trek 500 stainless steel pans, filled with a litre of water.

Actual power result: boiling time for 1 L of water: 3 mins 04. Actual power: 2750 watts. Actual consumption: 200 g/hour.

The results and performance of different stoves must be analysed in a comparable way (same conditions and parameters).

Heating time (continued)

The heating time of a stove is subject to a mandatory standardised process for EU certification but does not necessarily reflect the actual conditions of use.



Standard EN521 parameters (heating rate):

Propane gas at 3 bar pressure, without container.

Results: 4.1 kW / 292.5 g/hour

Performance and consumption

Many parameters affect the capacity and performance of your stove: atmospheric pressure, wind, damp, etc. and can therefore change the boiling temperature, heating time as well as the number of litres heated with one cartridge.

We strongly recommend using a windshield to optimise gas consumption.

The performance of a stove is therefore assessed according to the gas consumed / heating speed.
