GAS SAFETY| LIGHTING THE UNIT

1. Turn the ON/OFF valve located on the side of the fire table completely to the ON position.
Make sure the fuel supply (LP or NG) Is properly connected and turned on at the source. This will be either the LP tank or the NG Valve.
When you hear gas flowing, use either a long-stem wooden match or a butane fireplace lighter to place a flame near the burner.
If the burner does not light, does not stay lit, or the flame is very low, shut off the gas supply and wait five minutes to allow all fumes to clear. Start again from step 1, making sure all gas valves are completely opened.

GAS SAFETY | RE-LIGHTING
If the burner goes out, turn the gas to the position and allow at least 5 minutes for any gas to dissipate before attempting to re-light. Once the gas has dissipated, light the unit following the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Propane must always have a regulator. Do not operate if regulator has been removed. Never leave the gas key in the valve when not in use.
BURN HAZARD
Never leave children without supervision. This appliance will reach high temperatures which will cause burns. Never leave any ﬁre unattended when not in use. When using the appliance never touch the rock or glass used in the appliance. These areas get very hot and will cause injury. Do not reach over the ﬁre feature when in use. Do not stand on any part of this appliance. Never allow children to sit on or near the appliance, this could cause personal injury. The rock bed and other portions of the appliance will remain hot enough to cause injury for some time after the ﬂame is turned Do not leave the appliance unattended until it has had an opportunity to cool completely.
SAFETY
Inspections of this appliance should be done prior to installation and on an annual basis by a certiﬁed technician. Frequent cleaning may be required depending on the level of usage. It is important that the airﬂow inside the unit not be obstructed. It is the installers responsibility to review all safe operating and safety procedures with the end user.

Before lighting, check around the appliance area for the smell of gas. Propane is heavier than air and will settle close to the ground. Use only your hand to turn gas control valves. Never use tools. If the valve will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a qualiﬁed service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a ﬁre or explosion.
NOTE: The propane tank regulator in this appliance is equipped with a low ﬂow protection device. Unless the propane cylinder valve is slowly opened before the Key Gas Valve, the gas ﬂow will be restricted resulting in a small ﬂame.

cleaning & maintenance

CLEANING
Inspect the appliance before initial use. Clean the appliance at least annually and have it inspected by a qualiﬁed ﬁeld service person. Periodically examine the burner. If the burner is dirty, clean it with a soft wire brush. The easiest way to clean the ﬁre table burner is to let the burner. For routine cleaning of the ﬁre table, wipe down with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid cleaners that may contain chemicals that could cause discoloration. To remove stains, use a Marble or Granite stain remover available at any home center. More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary. It is imperative the burner and ventilation passages of the unit are kept clean and unobstructed. When not in use and after cooling, cover your ﬁre table with a full-length cover. A cover will help protect your fire table from the harmful effects of weather and pollution. Before covering the fire table, make certain the unit is shut off, has cooled completely and the gas lines have been disconnected. Install the cover and secure it tightly to prevent wind from blowing it off.

MAINTENANCE
Periodically check the hose connecting the propane gas cylinder to ensure it is not cracked or damaged in any way. All natural gas hook-ups should be inspected and serviced by qualiﬁed installers only.
BURNER CLEANING
Once a year or if ﬂames exhibit any abnormal shapes or behavior, or if the burner fails to ignite properly, the burner holes may require cleaning. The appliance can be cleaned by carefully removing the media to allow access to burner. Use a brush to carefully remove dust, webs, and loose particles from base, stones, and the burner. If there are signs of damage, the burner must be replaced with factory original parts as speciﬁed by the manufacturer. Spiders and insects can nest in the burners blocking gas and airﬂow to the burner ports. This creates a dangerous condition that can result in a ﬁre. Inspect and clean the burners periodically. Any parts removed for servicing must be properly replaced prior to operating the appliance. If there is excessive abrasion or wear of any of the components, if the fuel supply hose is cut or cracked, it must be replaced before operating the appliance. Inspect the fuel supply connection for signs of leakage (including the hose for propane models) before each use of the appliance. Repair or replacement of any part of your ﬁre table must be done by a qualiﬁed technician perform all service. Any repairs made by unauthorized service technicians will void your warranty.
STORAGE
only if they have been disconnected from their fuel supply. Store propane cylinders outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of reach of children. Disconnected cylinders must have threaded valve plugs tightly installed and must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. To extend the life of your ﬁre table, protect and cover it when not in use. Ensure the appliance storage cover due to heat or burns are not covered by warranty. We suggest that our products be serviced by a professional certiﬁed in the US by the National Fireplace Institute (NFI) as NFI Gas Specialists It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure a safe installation and to educate the end user as to proper operation of the burner unit. Installer must leave the owner’s manual, metal plate with operating instructions, and valve key with the end user.
