LIGHTING

WARNING: If you do not fol-

low these instructions exactly, a
fire or explosion may result caus-
ing property damage, personal

heavier than air and will settle on the
floor.

• 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 department.

Shutting Off Appliance

Turn gas shut-off valve clockwise

During the 2-3 hour appliance break-in

riods raising the flame an additional
2" to full flame height for a total of
