FAQs

My hand warmer isn't getting hot enough. What should I do?

• Carefully check the wick, taking care not to burn your hands. It should be firmly in place.
• The wick may not have been lit properly. Repeat the lighting instructions.
• Make sure there is enough fuel in the hand warmer. The fuel evaporates even when the hand warmer is not in use.
• The wick may need to be replaced. The wicks should be replaced after approximately 70 uses.

How can I prevent my hand warmer from overheating?

Once the 12-hour hand warmer is lit, there is no way to stop the heating process. If necessary, place the hand warmer in the protective cover and set it on a fireproof surface until the fuel runs out and the hand warmer feels cool.

Does the hand warmer need oxygen to work?

Yes, the Zippo hand warmer needs oxygen to heat up. The pouch regulates the amount of oxygen. Do not use it without the included pouch, otherwise the hand warmer will become too hot.

Do I need to use the included pouch?
