with a ten foot (3.05 m) clearance from any structure. Do NOT use on or
under balconies.
W This outdoor fireplace, from the factory, is for use with LP gas only. The

dangerous, may cause bodily harm and will void your warranty.
W 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.
W 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/
