Propane Characteristics:

• Flammable, explosive under pressure, heavier than air, and settles in pools in low areas. In its natural state, propane has no odor. For your safety, an odorant is typically added. Contact with propane could burn the skin.
• Propane is extremely flammable and hazardous if handled improperly.

LP GAS WARNINGS:

• Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of reach of children.
• Disconnected cylinders must have threaded valve plugs tightly installed and must not be in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
• Dented or rusted propane cylinders may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane gas supplier.
• LP gas tank must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
• The LP gas tank must have a tank collar to protect the tank valve.
• NEVER use an LP gas tank with a damaged body, valve, collar, or footing. Dented or rusted LP gas tanks may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP gas supplier prior to use.

Instruction for connecting gas circuit to LPG cylinder
Keep at hand suitable crossed screwdriver, adjustable spanners, pliers and wrenches. Before assembly, make sure all protection packing material has been removed. Flexible gas hose(1763-1) and clamps (if necessary) are supplied with this appliance and must be used, in accordance with regulations. The gas regulator has to be set according to specific gas category (see on page 2) and proper gas consumption (g/h) specification. The LPG cylinder should be standard one. Recommend to use 5 kg . Replacement must be that specified in “Gas Requirements” section of this Instruction Manual. Be careful: do not kink flexible gas rubber pipe of gas circuit. If pipe holder should not be provided, thread of the gas inlet connection will be in line with Standards ISO 7-1 or ISO 228-1, according to National Rules in force of the country of destination.

1. Make sure appliance gas knob is turned “OFF” (full disk) before assembling (Fig 3).Fig 3
2. Put the LPG cylinder inside of the tank bracket, and tight the screw (see Fig 4) Fig 4
3. Connect the regulator to LPG cylinder by hand. Push down until you hear a click. (see Fig 5) Fig 5
4. Connect the hose to the appliance and the regulator. Tighten the screw of the hose clamp with a screwdriver (seeFig 6). Check that the regulator seal is correctly fitted and able to fulfil its function. Fig 6

Note: For model KLFP213-0200. The hose must be fixed by the hose fixation clamp.

Operating Instructions

Lighting

1. Make sure the fireplace table is stable and in solid state.
2. Remove the protective cover.
3. Press the control button fully until you hear a slight ticking sound (this is the piezo ignition). If you hear nothing when pressing the ignition button, then you probably need to replace the battery.

Hold the control knob pushed in when you open the gas supply.
Turn the control knob to the right for gas supply.
The burner should now ignite within 15 seconds.
Once fully lit you can release the control knob and the fire pit table is ready for use.
If the burner does not light, wait 5 minutes and repeat above procedure. If the burner partially lights, extinguish the flames, wait 5 minutes and try again but holding down the button for longer.

Leakage Testing
Never check for gas leakages with a flame or whilst smoking.
This appliance needs to be periodically checked for leakages and an immediate check is required if the smell of gas is detected.

•  Make a soap solution using 1 part of liquid dish-washing soap to 3 parts water. The soap solution can be applied with a soap bottle, brush, or rag to the leakage tested points shown in the below diagram (Fig 7)

• The valve of the LPG cylinder should be in the “OFF” position at this point of the leakage test. Once the soapy solution is applied to the gas connections, the valve of the LPG cylinder needs to be turned to the “ON” position.
• Soap bubbles will begin to form in the soapy solution if any leakage is present.
• In the event of gas leakage, the appliance shall not be used or if alight, the gas supply shall be shut-off and the appliance shall be investigated and rectified before it is used again. Tighten any leaking fittings, then turn on gas supply and recheck.
• If necessary, substitute gasket (according to EN 549 Class B2) or material used to guarantee tightness (according to EN 751-1 Class I).

Maintenance & Cleaning

To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your appliance, regular service of the appliance is mandatory as follows:

• The appliance should be inspected at least one time a year by a qualified service engineer only. More frequent cleaning may be required according to the use of the appliance.

• Any guard or other protective device removed for servicing the appliance must be replaced before operating it.

• Keep exterior surfaces clean, free and clear from combustible materials.

• Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents.

• While washing your unit makes sure
  to keep the area around the burner assembly dry at all times. If the gas control is exposed to water in any way, DO NOT try to use it. It must be replaced.

• Burner and LPG compartment circulating air passageways of the appliance must be kept clean.

• Airflow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner and circulation air passageways clean. Signs of possible blockage include:

• If the flame is uneven, making popping noises or is burning yellow there is not ample oxygen getting to the flame. Extinguish the flames and ensure the burners or ventilation are not blocked and are free from dust or debris.

• Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous condition can damage the appliance and render it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may help clear away smaller particles.

• Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. If any carbon deposits develop, clean fire pan with warm soapy water.

• After the burner and lava rocks are completely cooled down, remove it from the bowl and use a soft brush to remove any marks, loose dirt. Wipe with a soft cloth.

• Clean the bowl and afterward put lava rocks again in proper position.

• For proper cleaning, a vacuum cleaner can be used.

Note: In a salt-air environment (such as near the sea), corrosion occurs more quickly than normal. Frequently check the corroded areas and repair them promptly. Stubborn stains, discoloration and possibly rust pitting can occur from exposure to harsh outdoor conditions. Be careful not to let any powder or solvent come in contact with painted or plastic components as damage may occur.
After long use, some discoloration can come up and it screen is normal.
Make sure both gas supplies are in the off position before changing the battery. Please refer to the process of assembling battery.
Please contact the Manufacturer or dealer for information regarding replacement hoses, thermocouples, igniters, lava rocks, etc.

Attention: Never use unauthorized parts or component for this appliance.
Use only original equipment replacement spare parts and components.
Failure to comply with the above may result in hazardous conditions and your warranty being void.
