FIREPLACE
WARNING: If you do not fol-

ing property damage, personal
injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance is equipped with an
ignition device which automatically

not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier
from a neighbor's phone. Follow
the gas supplier's instructions.
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. 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 un-
der water.
