2.  Set thermostat (gas control knob) to lowest setting.
3.  Turn off all electric power to the appliance (if applicable).

4.   Push in gas control knob slightly and turn clockwise 

 

 to "OFF".  Do not force.

 

5.   Wait ten (10) minutes   to clear out any gas.  Then smell for 

gas, including near the floor.  If you smell gas, STOP! Follow 

"B" in the safety information above.  If you don't smell gas, 

go to the next step.

6.   Find pilot - the pilot is attached at the 

bottom of the burner assembly .

7.   Turn gas control knob counterclock-

wise 

 to "PILOT."

8.   Push in gas control knob all the way 

and hold in.  Repeatedly push the 

piezo ignitor button until pilot is lit (or 

use a match to light pilot).  Continue to hold the control knob 

in for about one (1) minute after the pilot is lit.  Release knob 

and it will pop back up.  Pilot should remain lit.  If it goes out, 

repeat steps 4 through 8.

• 

If knob does not pop up when released, stop and im

control knob to "OFF" and call your service technician or 

gas supplier.  

 9.  Attention!  Gas control has an INTERLOCK latching device.  

When the pilot is initially lit and the safety magnet is energized 

(pilot stays "ON") the INTERLOCK latching device becomes 

operative.  If the gas control is turned to the "OFF" position 

or gas flow to the appliance is shut off, the pilot cannot be 

relighted until the safety magnet is de-energized (approximately 

60 seconds).  There will be an audible "click" when the safety 

magnet in the gas control is de-energized.  Pilot can now be 

relighted.  Repeat steps 4 through 8.

10.  Turn gas control knob counterclockwise  

 

 

to "HI". 

11.  Turn on all electric power to appliance (if applicable).
12.  Set thermostat (gas control knob) to desired setting from "HI" 

to "LO".
