3. Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your CIAYS Smokeless Firepit:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that all parts are present: main fire pit body (with integrated legs), removable fire bowl, secondary combustion ring, grill rack, fire poker, and carrying bag.
2. Unfold Legs: The fire pit features foldable legs. Gently pull the legs outwards until they lock into a stable position. Ensure all legs are fully extended and stable before proceeding.
3. Assemble Fire Pit Body: The fire pit consists of a detachable stacked structure. The main body, secondary combustion ring, and fire bowl are designed to fit together. Place the main body on a flat, non-combustible surface. Insert the removable fire bowl into the main body. Then, place the secondary combustion ring on top of the fire bowl, ensuring it sits securely.
4. Initial Inspection: Before first use, inspect the fire pit for any damage or loose parts. Ensure all components are correctly seated.

4. Operating Instructions

Operating your smokeless fire pit for an enjoyable and safe experience:

1. Choose a Safe Location: Place the fire pit on a level, non-combustible surface, ensuring it is at least 24 inches (61 cm) away from any flammable materials or structures.
2. Add Fuel: Place seasoned firewood into the removable fire bowl. Start with smaller kindling and gradually add larger logs. Do not overfill the fire pit; ensure air can circulate.
3. Ignite Fire: Use a long lighter or match to ignite the kindling. Allow the fire to establish itself. The Waterfallflame Technology™ will begin to work as the fire heats up, drawing air through the bottom vents and circulating it for efficient, low-smoke combustion.
4. Manage Fire: Use the included 25.3-inch fire poker to adjust logs and maintain airflow. Avoid poking the fire excessively, as this can disrupt the smokeless combustion process.
5. Grilling (Optional): If using the grill rack, place it securely on top of the fire pit once the flames have died down to embers suitable for cooking. Ensure the grill rack is stable before placing food on it.
6. Extinguish Fire: Allow the fire to burn down naturally. Do not use water to extinguish the fire, as this can damage the stainless steel and create steam hazards. Once the fire has died down, ensure all embers are cold before leaving the fire pit unattended.

5. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your fire pit:

• Ash Removal: Once the fire pit is completely cool, remove the inner fire bowl. Dispose of ash responsibly according to local regulations. The removable design facilitates easy cleaning.
• Cleaning: Wipe down the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild stainless steel cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool, which can scratch the surface.
• Grill Rack Care: Clean the 304 stainless steel grill rack after each use. Wash with warm soapy water and a brush, then rinse and dry thoroughly to prevent rust.
• Storage: For long-term storage or transport, fold the legs and disassemble the fire pit components. Place all parts into the provided multipurpose carrying bag. Store in a dry, covered area to protect from elements.

6. Troubleshooting

• Excessive Smoke:
  • Ensure you are using dry, seasoned wood. Wet or unseasoned wood produces more smoke.
  • Avoid overfilling the fire pit. Proper airflow is crucial for smokeless combustion.
  • Check for obstructions in the air intake vents at the bottom of the fire pit.
• Difficulty Starting Fire:
  • Use appropriate kindling (e.g., newspaper, small dry twigs) to establish a strong initial flame before adding larger logs.
  • Ensure adequate air circulation around the kindling.
• Missing Top Piece During Assembly:

  If it appears a top piece is missing, check if it is nested or stuck to the bottom piece with handles. Gently pull it down to separate the components. The design allows for compact storage, which can sometimes make components appear integrated.
