To Ignite the Fire Pit:

1. Oop Gasvoorsiening: Ensure the main gas supply valve to the fire pit is fully open.
2. Activate Pilot Light: Push and hold the "Pilot Light Full Push" knob on the control panel.
3. Ignite Spark: While holding the pilot knob, repeatedly press the "Igniter Push to Spark" button until the pilot flame ignites. You should hear a clicking sound and see a small flame at the pilot.
4. Hold Pilot: Continue to hold the "Pilot Light Full Push" knob for approximately 30-60 seconds after the pilot ignites. This allows the thermocouple (flame sensor) to heat up and confirm the pilot flame.
5. Turn Main Burner ON: Slowly release the pilot knob. If the pilot remains lit, turn the "Main Burner" knob to the "ON" position to ignite the main burner. Adjust the flame height as desired.
6. Vlamsensor: The automatic flame sensor will continuously monitor the pilot flame. If the pilot flame extinguishes for any reason, the sensor will automatically close the gas valve to prevent gas leakage.

To Turn OFF the Fire Pit:

1. Turn Main Burner OFF: Rotate the "Main Burner" knob to the "OFF" position. The main flames will extinguish.
2. Turn Pilot OFF: Push and turn the "Pilot Light" knob to the "OFF" position. The pilot flame will extinguish.
3. Close Gas Supply: For extended periods of non-use, close the main gas supply valve to the fire pit.
