FOR YOUR SAFETY
READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not fol-
low these instructions exactly,
a fire or explosion may result

A. This appliance has a pilot which must be
lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot,
follow these instructions exactly.

a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas
supplier’s instructions.

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 tech
-
nician 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 ser
-
vice technician to inspect the appliance and to
replace any part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.
