LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING:

RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR LOSS OF LIFE.

A. This appliance has a pilot which must be lit

by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow
these instructions exactly.

B. BEFORE LIGHTING, smell all around the

appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next
to the floor because some gas is heavier than
air and will settle to the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
• Extinguish any open flame.
• Open windows.
• Do not light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switches.
• Do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a

neighbor’s phone.

• If your gas supplier cannot be reached, call the

fire department.

C. Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas

control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will
not push in or turn by hand, do not try to repair
it. Call a qualified technician. Force or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion.

D. Do not use this appliance if any part has been

under water. Immediately call a qualified service
technician to inspect the appliance and to
replace any part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.

1. STOP! Read the safety information above.

above on this page. If you do not smell gas, go to the
next step.
