SAFETY INFORMATION
DANGER
DANGER
DANGER indicates an imminently
hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
Failure to comply with the
precautions and instructions
provided with this fire pit can
result in death, serious bodily
injury and property loss or
damage from hazards of fire,
explosion, burn, asphyxiation,
and/or carbon monoxide
poisoning. Only persons who can

this fire pit.
DANGER
Certain materials or items, when stored under the fire
pit, will be subjected to radiant heat and could be
seriously damaged.
Alert children and adults to the hazards of high surface
temperatures. Stay away from these surfaces to avoid
burning skin or igniting clothing.
Carefully supervise young children when in the vicinity
of the fire pit.
Do not hang clothing or any other flammable materials
from the fire pit, or place on or near the fire pit.
Replace any guard or protective device removed for
servicing the appliance prior to placing back in
service.

•EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
•Keep solid combustibles,
such as building materials,
paper or cardboard, a safe
distance away from the fire pit
as recommended by the
instructions.
•Provide adequate clearances
around air openings into the
combustion chamber.
•Never use the fire pit in
spaces which do or may
contain volatile or airborne
combustibles, or products
such as gasoline, solvents,
paint thinner, dust particles or
unknown chemicals
•During operation, this
product can be a source of
ignition. Keep fire pit area
clear and free from
combustible materials,
gasoline, paint thinner,
cleaning solvents and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
Do not use fire pit in areas
with high dust content.

90cm (36in) from the rear,
180cm (72in) from ceiling.
•This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane
gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An
odorant is normally added to help detect leaks
and can be described as a “rotten egg” smell.
The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is
not always detectable by smell alone.
•Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking
propane will sink to the lowest level possible. It
can ignite by ignition sources including matches,
lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many
feet away from the original leak. Use only
propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
•Store or use propane gas in compliance with
local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA
58. Turn off propane when not in use.
