AWARNING
BEFORE LIGHTING [PROPANE (L.P.) GAS WATER
HEATERS]: Propane (LR) gas is heavier than air. Should there
be a leak in the system, the gas wilt settle near the ground.
Basements, crawl spaces, skirted areas under mobile homes
(even when ventilated), closets and areas below ground level will
serve as pockets for the accumulation of this gas. Before
attempting to tight or relight the water heater’s pilot or turning
on a nearby electrical light switch, be absolutely sure there is no
accumulated gas in the »«a. Search for odor of gas by sniffing at
ground level in the vicinity of the appliance. If odor is detected,
follow steps indicated at “For Your Safety” on the cover page of
this manual then leave the premises.
Lighting and operating instructions are located on front of the
water heater, above or to one side of the gas control valve.
