OPERATING FIREPLACE

FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions

exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing prop-
erty damage, personal injury or loss of life.

A. This appliance has a pilot which lights automatically when

using the supplied wall switch or remote control. If you
have a power outage, the pilot may be lighted by hand with
push-button piezo ignitor. When lighting the pilot, the fol-
lowing warnings must be followed.

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 on the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in

your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s

phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire de-

partment.

C.

Electric Power Outage Only:

Use only your hand to turn

the manual override handle on the gas control knob. Never
use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, don’t try to
repair it, call a qualified service technician or gas supplier.
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.
