A. This appliance has a pilot which must

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

not use any phone in your building.

plier, 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, 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
