To turn on a gas fire pit, simply push the igniter button. Most gas fire pits will have an igniter button that is located near the control panel. Once you push the button, the gas will flow to the burner and light the fire. You may need to hold down the button for a few seconds before the fire ignites. If your Fire Pit does not have an igniter button, you can use a long lighter to reach the burner and light it manually. Be sure to follow all safety precautions when lighting a Fire Pit. Never leave a Fire Pit unattended while it is lit.
