Just bought one - how do you open this thing?

Can you see where the curvature of the two pieces match, but they aren't touching? You have to push the clear/black plastic portion back to meet the solid gray portion. It's a little stubborn, so exercise some caution, just in case.

grasp the dark front part with index finger and your thumb and push grey part forward ok.

Yeah....opening it by hand is tough. I use a small screwdriver too. No accidental opening likely.

Dorothy, I had the same problem. Hold the bottom (bigger part) with your left hand and twist the part just above it with your right hand. Failing this, go to YouTube and see how is done there. This is how I managed to open mine. I hope this helps.

It's a little tricky.sometimes I pulled forward on the lip and it opened. Haven't used it since last July.I'm going by memory. Turn and push key and button. Hope that helps

It just snaps open and I think on one you ave to use a screw driver. I am not sure my hubby did it and he is on the road but I know it was easy

Loosen that screw looking thing on the side that shows a lock and unlock then slide the cover open. I struggled with this also, but sliding the cover is the key.

There are two keys each for a specific keyhole. Place the right key in each and turn. Should open. Hope this helps.

Simple, use a quarter to pry it open by turning it. I know it looks like it is going to break but it won't.

It's on the end of the handle. Dark blue portion, two buttons on either side of it. Squeeze tham and the end opens up.

To open the box, just slide it around. The lid is attached somehow on the top and it just slides back to reveal the contents.

There should be a key that shipped with the box as well that should open it. Additionally I believe it should have shipped with a default code and that should be in the documentation.

Never used this type of lighter before, got one, but can't open it by hand (to fill the fuel)... any help please?

You twist them (to the left I think). I had trouble with one of mine and had to twist and pull quite a bit before it popped open. Tricky little suckers.

Sorry I did not have any trouble opening it by just pulling up on it. I suggest instead of breaking it just returning it to Amazon or going online to Sylvania and get the manual if its posted and see how it opens. My wife and I shared it on a flight last week and it worked fine.

It's easy just push hard and it will open! Pls read the directions on the box! Thanks

There are some clips on the side that they snap into place you have to use your finger nail or something to push them up or in to be able to get it open. Once you get those going then you should try to wedge something in there so as it stays open and then do the others. Either do it from the top or the bottom and then go from there. Be gentle. its difficult to open but once you put your "CLEANED" i pad in there next to nothing gets to it. Dust water etc and every few(4/5) months pop it open and clean it out.

I bought 2 of them the first one open right up the second one didn't. On the left side close to top use a small screw driver or nail file to pop open the handle.Then once you get open do not close it.
