NATURAL GAS DANGERS AND WARNINGS

Natural gas is flammableand hazardous if handledimproperly. Become aware of the characteristics before using any natural gas product.

Natural Gas Characteristics:

• Flammable, explosiveunder pressure, lighter than air and settles in pools in high areas.

• In its natural state, natural gas has no odor. For your safety,an odorant has been added.

• Contact with natural gas could burn the skin.

• Natural gasisextremelyflammableandhazardousifhandledimproperly.
  Chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductiveharm arecreated by thecombustion ofnatural gas.
  Your natural gas fire pit is designed to operate on natural gas only, at a pressure of seven inches’ water column (7″ W.C.) Check with your gas utility forlocal gas pressure, because in some areas natural gas pressure varies. Also, check with your gas company or with local building codes for instructions to install gas supply line, or call a licensed and qualified installer.
  It is recommended that an ON/OFF manual shut-off valve be installed at the gas supply source:

• Outdoors after the gas line exits outside wall and before quick-disconnect or before gas supply line enters ground.

• Indoors in the branch gas line in an accessible location near the gas supply line.
  Pipe sealing compound or pipe thread tape of the type resistant to the action of natural gas must be used on all male pipe threads. Apply compound or tape to at least the first three to four threads when making aconnection.

Never store or use gasoline or other volatile substance in the vicinity of this fire table.

Natural Gas Connection
Connect a manual shut-off valve to gas supply line. Apply sealing compound or pipe thread tape of the type resistant to the action of natural gas on all male pipe threads. Connect the end, with the quick release connector, or the natural gas hose to manual shut-off valve at the gas supply.

WARNING

During any high pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa), the appliance and its individual shut- off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.

The outdoor fire table must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at least equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

WARNING

Burner valves are pre-tested at the factory to operate on natural gas. Do not attempt to convert or change.

PARTS LIST

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

PRE-USE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING Before using this outdoor fire table, make sure you have read, understand and are following all information provided in the Important Safety Information section of this manual. Failure to follow those instructions can cause death, serious injury or property damage.

Prior to each gas fireplace operation, check the hose and valve for evidence of excessive abrasion or wear though the visual check hole on the side of the base. Replace visual check cap prior to operating fireplace.

BURNER CONNECTIONS
Make sure the regulator valve and hose connections are securely fastened to the burner and the tank. If your unit was assembled for you, visually check the connection between the burner pipe and orifice. Make sure the burner pipe fits over the orifice.

WARNING

Failure to inspect this connection or follow these instructions could cause a fire or an explosion, which can cause death, serious bodily injury, or damage to property.

Please refer to diagram for proper installation.
If the burner pipe does not rest flush to the orifice please contact Elementi at 800-678-7294 for assistance.

Checking for Leaks
Make a leak check solution by mixing 1-part dishwashing soap with 3 parts water in a spray bottle.
Make sure control knob is “OFF.” Then, turn natural gas on at its source.
Spray leak solution on valve connections paying particular attention to the areas indicated by arrows.
If any bubbles appear turn natural gas off, reconnectand re-test. If you continue to see bubbles after several attempts, disconnect natural gas source and contact Elementi at 800-678-7294 for assistance.
If no bubbles appear after one-minute turn source OFF, wipe away solution and proceed.

CARE AND CLEANING

Inspecting
This outdoor fire table must be inspected regularly to insure that the product is safe to use and to extend product life.

WARNING

DO NOT inspect this outdoor fireplace until the fire is COMPLETELY out.

1. Check the burner to make sure it is securely in place.
2. Check all gas connections for leaks.
3. Check ignition system to insure proper sparking.
4. Check components for any signs of damage, rust or excessive wear.
5. If damage to any component is detected, DO NOT operate until the proper repairs have been made.

WARNING

DO NOT tamper with this appliance. This is DANGEROUS and will void the warranty. Any part found to be faulty must be replaced with an approved part, confirmed by manufacturer. For technical support contact Elementi at 800-678-7294 .

General Care and Cleaning
This outdoor fireplace should be cleaned regularly to ensure safe use and extend product life.
Note: After repeated use, a slight discoloration of the finishes may occur.

Table
1. Wipe exterior surfaces with a mild dish washing soap or baking soda, then rinse clean with water.

Stainless Steel

1. For general cleaning use warm water, soap, ammonia, or detergent apply with a soft cloth or Sponge
2. For finger prints or smears use 3M Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish, Arcal 20, Lac-O-Nu, LuminWash, O’Cedar Cream Polish, or Stainless Shine, this will provide a barrier file to minimize fingerprints.
3. For stubborn stains and discoloration use 3M Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish, Allchem Concentrated Cleaner, Samae, Twinkle, Cameo Copper Cleaner, Liquid Nu Steel, Copper’s or Revere Stainless Steel Cleaner, apply using a soft cloth in the same direction of the polish lines.
4. While using in salt air environments we recommend cleaning all stainless steel surfaces at least every two weeks to keep the item in prime condition. Stainless steel is corrosion-resistant but it is not impervious to rust.

Exposure to salt air and sea spray will cause surface rust if you do not care for your products properly.
The best thing you can do to protect the stainless steel is to clean it frequently.

• Use of proprietary names is intended only to indicate a type of cleaner and does not constitute endorsement. Omission of any proprietary cleanser does not imply its inadequacy. All products should be used in strict accordance with instructions on package.
