OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Smell all around the unit area for gas. Be sure to smell near the floor,
because gas is heavier than air and will settle to the lowest point. If you
smell gas, shut off the gas to the appliance, extinguish any open flame,
and if odor persists, call your gas supplier or the fire department.
2. Fire pit should be thoroughly inspected before each use, and by a
qualified service person at least annually. If relighting a hot fire pit,
always wait at least 5 minutes.
3. Inspect hose assembly for evidence of excessive abrasion, cuts, or
wear. Suspect areas should be leak tested. If the hose leaks, it must
be replaced prior to operation. Only use the replacement hose
assembly specified by manufacturer.

6. Observe the flame height when lit. Flame should reach between 3 and 13 inches in height. Overly short or tall flame
can indicate a problem.
