Troubleshooting: Venting & Refilling
If you are experiencing any problems with your iolite portable vaporiser please follow the following steps. If you still have problems please contact the store you bought it from or our iolite expert.
Venting the iolite vaporizer.
- Make sure the unit is off, the switch should be at 0. Turn the unit upside down and point away from your body.
- Using the small end of the handtool, depress the gas valve and let all the gas dispel ensuring to keep hands clear of liquid gas spraying from the valve, this may take up to or more than 30 seconds.
- Refill using a recommended butane* and leave for 5 minutes. It should only take a few seconds to fill (2 to 5 seconds). As soon as gas sprays back it is full.
- Turn on the unit, the switch should be at 1, and listen for a hissing sound.
- If you hear the gas flow, press the igniter, you may need to try 2 or 3 times before it will light.
