When the power is turned on, the fire pit ignites; when it is turned off, it turns off. Thus, for the fire pit to remain lit, the power must be turned on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n    <div  class=\"ale caution\">\n        <p>CAUTION: Before lighting your fire pit, smell all around the unit. If you smell gas, do not attempt to light the fire pit. Wait for a minimum of five minutes. If the gas smell persists, contact a gas technician to troubleshoot. If possible, turn the gas off at the source.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Your fire pit will be connected to a line voltage power outlet inside the fire pit vessel. Whichever method you choose to control the power to that outlet will be the way the fire pit is turned on and off. These methods can include, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Standard wall switch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plug-in remote control unit, controlled by a wireless handheld remote control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Timer device<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Home control or \u201csmart system\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Breaker<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When the power is turned on, the ignition sequence will initiate, and:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You will hear a rapid clicking sound of the spark igniter, which will light the pilot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the pilot is lit, you will hear a more distinctive click as the main burner opens. At this point, the fire pit should ignite.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turning off the power will immediately close the main valve and extinguish the fire pit, though it may take several seconds before the flame is completely out.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n    <div  class=\"down\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/paloform.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Fire-Pit-Lighting-Instructions-Electronic.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" download>You can download the complete lighting instructions here<svg width=\"16\" height=\"16\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><g><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M14 4.5V14C14 15.1046 13.1046 16 12 16H11V15H12C12.5523 15 13 14.5523 13 14V4.5H11C10.1716 4.5 9.5 3.82843 9.5 3V1H4C3.44772 1 3 1.44772 3 2V11H2V2C2 0.89543 2.89543 0 4 0H9.5L14 4.5ZM1.59961 11.85H0V15.849H0.791016V14.5072H1.59375C1.88086 14.5072 2.125 14.4496 2.32617 14.3344C2.5293 14.2172 2.68359 14.059 2.78906 13.8598C2.89648 13.6586 2.9502 13.433 2.9502 13.183C2.9502 12.933 2.89746 12.7074 2.79199 12.5063C2.68652 12.3051 2.5332 12.1459 2.33203 12.0287C2.13281 11.9096 1.88867 11.85 1.59961 11.85ZM2.14453 13.183C2.14453 13.3315 2.11621 13.4584 2.05957 13.5639C2.00488 13.6674 1.92578 13.7475 1.82227 13.8041C1.71875 13.8588 1.59375 13.8861 1.44727 13.8861H0.788086V12.4799H1.44727C1.66602 12.4799 1.83691 12.5404 1.95996 12.6615C2.08301 12.7826 2.14453 12.9565 2.14453 13.183ZM3.36211 11.85V15.849H4.82109C5.22344 15.849 5.55645 15.7699 5.82012 15.6117C6.08574 15.4535 6.28398 15.224 6.41484 14.9232C6.5457 14.6225 6.61113 14.2611 6.61113 13.8393C6.61113 13.4193 6.5457 13.0609 6.41484 12.7641C6.28594 12.4672 6.08965 12.2406 5.82598 12.0844C5.5623 11.9281 5.22734 11.85 4.82109 11.85H3.36211ZM4.15312 12.4945H4.71562C4.96367 12.4945 5.1668 12.5453 5.325 12.6469C5.48516 12.7484 5.60332 12.8998 5.67949 13.101C5.75762 13.3022 5.79668 13.5531 5.79668 13.8539C5.79668 14.0805 5.77422 14.2777 5.7293 14.4457C5.68633 14.6137 5.6209 14.7543 5.53301 14.8676C5.44707 14.9789 5.33574 15.0629 5.19902 15.1195C5.0623 15.1742 4.90117 15.2016 4.71562 15.2016H4.15312V12.4945ZM7.89609 14.2582V15.849H7.10508V11.85H9.65391V12.5033H7.89609V13.6195H9.50156V14.2582H7.89609Z\" fill=\"black\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PLEASE NOTE:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>i.
