OPERATION

This section contains instructions for operating the fire feature. Follow these instructions to ensure safe and proper operation.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury or property damage due to burns or accumulation of fuel gas.

OPERATION GUIDELINES

• Do not operate the fire feature in rainy conditions or when fire media is wet. Doing so may cause fire media to crack
and burst.
• Never use the fire feature in windy conditions.
• Do not reach/jump across or touch hot surfaces or open flames.
• Inspect the fire feature before every use.
• Before operating or testing the fire feature, ensure there are no obstructions, debris or combustible materials
contacting or within proximity of it.
• Never leave the fire feature unattended when in use. Always turn off the fire feature after use.
• Never attempt to adjust the gas flow by adjusting the pressure regulator.
• It is recommended to cover the fire feature with a designated cover if it will not be operated for long periods of time.
Always allow the fire media, burner and bowl to completely cool before covering it. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

OPERATING THE FIRE FEATURE

MagicFlame can be controlled via a standard wall-mount light switch. Multiple fire features can be connected, through
a junction box, to a single switch so that all fire bowls can be switched on and off together.
The fire feature can also be controlled via most Pentair automation systems. For more information refer to your
specific automation system's manual.

LIGHTING THE FIRE FEATURE

1. Ensure all gas supply valve(s) are open before attempting to light the fire feature.
2. Turn on the power switch to the fire feature.
3. After 3 seconds, the igniter will begin to glow red.
Shortly after this (roughly 5 seconds), the burner will ignite.
3. The igniter will remain lit 6 to 8 seconds to prove a flame is produced and will then ignite the burner.
The igniter will shut off and the flame will continue as long as the flame is present and can be sensed by the pilot
sensor.
4. If burner fails to light, it will attempt to light three additional times.
If the burner still fails to ignite after these three attempts, it will lock out and will need to be reset by cycling the
power off then on.
Note: Windy conditions or gusts may push or pull the flame away from the pilot sensor, causing the system to shut
down for 7 seconds and then re-start the ignition sequence. This will continue for 5 minutes, if it cannot maintain a
flame after 5 minutes the system will lock out and will need to be reset by cycling the power off then on.
Note: When lighting the burner for the first time there will be air in the gas lines that will need to be purged. This
may require multiple system resets.
IMPORTANT! ALWAYS WAIT 5 MINUTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO RELIGHT AFTER A RESET!
4. Once the burner successfully lights and operates for at least 3 minutes, the control box will begin to monitor the
flame.
