Using your Christopher Knight Home® Crestline Outdoor Natural Stone Fire Pit is easy. First, make sure it's assembled correctly according to the instructions. Then, place it in a safe, flat outdoor area away from anything flammable. You can use dry wood to start the fire, but remember, charcoal is not suitable for this fire pit. Once the fire is going, adjust the iron shield as needed. If you want to make s'mores, just remove the shield.
When it comes to safety, always keep a fire extinguisher or a bucket of water nearby. Never leave the fire unattended. After using the fire pit, let the ashes cool completely before disposing of them.
For maintenance, clean the fire pit regularly. Use a soft brush to remove any ashes or debris. If there are any stains on the natural stone finish, you can use a mild soap and water solution. Keep the fire pit covered when not in use to protect it from the elements and extend its lifespan.
