A.

This appliance has a pilot which must be lighted
by hand.  When lighting the pilot, follow these in-
structions 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 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.

result in a fire or explosion.
