FIRE PIT MAINTENANCE
1. The Fire Pit should be inspected and cleaned before initial use at least annually by a qualified field service person.
2. Any component that is found faulty must be replaced with an approved component.
3. Any tampering or modifying with the Fire Pit is dangerous and voids all warranties.
4. During winter months in cold climates and various seasons operation the Fire Pit may be affected by weather condi
tions. It is recommended to use a ventilated cover overtop of your Fire Pit to protect it from humid/rainy weather condi
tions when not in use. Heavy rains/downpours could affect the Fire Pit operation if not covered; if this occurs ensure
you allow the Fire Pit time to dry out before attempting to operate. NOTE: If a combustible type cover is used over the
Fire Pit when not in use be sure to remove it before operation to prevent a severe safety hazard.
5. Carbon (soot) may build up on the surface of logs (if installed) during heavy use. Sooting may also occur periodically
on the screen of the ignitor hood. To clean, brush off with a dry bristle brush or cloth. Keep soot away from clothing or
furniture.
6. Over time stainless steel parts discolor when heated, usually a golden or brown hue. This discoloration is normal and
does not affect the performance of the appliance.
