Things You Will Need
Yankee Candle lighters operate essentially the same as other electronic lighters and use butane fuel. A valve on the bottom of the lighter receives the butane fuel under pressure for refilling.
-
Remove the small screw at the base of the lighter handle and set aside to expose the gas valve inside.
-
Push the tip of the screwdriver into the valve on the lighter to bleed air out of the small fuel tank inside.
-
Insert the plastic tip on the butane can into the nozzle while holding the lighter upside-down. Press to open the valve and release gas into the lighter. Refill the lighter for five seconds, or until a short burst of butane spurts from the valve, indicating the tank is full.
-
Replace the screw over the valve. The lighter is refilled and ready for use.
