WARNINGS:
This appliance is for outdoor use only, and should NOT be used in a building,
garage or any other enclosed area.
Do NOT operate, light or use this appliance within ten feet (3.05 m) of walls,
structures or buildings.
For residential use only. This outdoor fireplace is NOT for commercial use.
Do NOT use this outdoor fireplace for indoor heating. TOXIC carbon monoxide
fumes can accumulate and cause asphyxiation.
This outdoor fireplace is safety certified for use in the United States and/or
Canada only. Do NOT modify for use in any other location.

Apartment dwellers: Check with management to learn the requirements and fire
codes for using a liquid propane (LP) gas outdoor fireplace in your apartment
complex. If allowed, use outside on the ground floor with a ten foot (3.05 m)
clearance from any structure. Do NOT use on or under balconies.
This outdoor fireplace, from the factory, is for use with LP gas only. The
conversion to or attempted use of natural gas in this outdoor fireplace is
dangerous, may cause bodily harm and will void your warranty.
LP gas characteristics:
a. LP gas is flammable and hazardous if handled improperly. Become aware
of the characteristics before using any LP gas product.
b. LP gas is explosive under pressure, heavier than air, and settles/
pools in low areas.
c. LP gas in its natural state has no odor. For your safety, an odorant
is added that smells like rotten cabbage.
d. Contact with LP gas can cause freeze burns to skin.
LP gas tank needed to operate. Only tanks marked “propane” may be used.
a. The LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with
the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) Specifications for LP-Gas
Cylinders, or the Standard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the
Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission, CAN/ CSA-B339 as applicable.
b. LP gas tank must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
c. The LP gas tank must have a listed overfilling prevention device (OPD)
and a QCCI or Type I (CGA810) LP gas tank connection.
d. The LP gas tank must have a tank collar to protect the tank valve.
e. Never use an LP gas tank with a damaged body, valve, collar or
footing.
f. Dented or rusted LP gas tanks may be hazardous and should be checked
by your LP gas supplier prior to use.
g. The LP gas tank should not be dropped or handled roughly.
h. Tanks must be stored outdoors, out of the reach of children and must

safety relief valve. You may damage the valve and cause a leak.
Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury or
death.
j. Never keep an LP gas tank in a hot car or trunk. Heat will cause the
gas pressure to increase, which may open the relief valve and allow gas to
escape.
k. Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not
in use. Only install the type of dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is
provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in
leakage of propane.
