NOVUS TOP DV GAS APPLIANCE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE OPERATING

A. This  appliance  does  not  have  a  pilot.  It  is  equipped  with  an  ignition  device  which  automatically  lights  the

burner.  Do  not  try  to  light  the  burner  by  hand.

B. BEFORE  OPERATING  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  electrical  switch;  do  not  use  any  phone  in  your  building.

•  Immediately  call  your  gas  supplier  from  a  neighbor’s  phone.  Follow  the  supplier’s  instructions.

•  If  you  cannot  reach  your  gas  supplier,  call  the  fire  department.

C. Use  only  your  hand  to  push  in  and  move  the  gas  control  lever  or  turn  the  gas  control  knob.

Never  use  tools.  If  the  lever  or  knob  will  not  move  by  hand,  don’t  try  to  repair  it--call  a  qualified  service

technician.

Forced  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

under  water.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. STOP!  Read  the  safety  information  above  on  this  label.
2. Turn  wall  switch  to  the  “OFF”  position.
3. This  appliance  is  equipped  with  an  ignition  device  which  automatically  lights  the  burner.  Do  not  try  to  light

burner  by  hand.

4. Wait  five  (5)  minutes  to  clear  out  any  gas.  If  you  then  smell  gas.  STOP!  Follow  “B  “  in  the  safety  information

above  on  this  label.  If  you  don’t  smell  gas,  go  on  to  the  next  step.

5. To  turn  on  burner,  turn  on  the  wall  switch.
6. If  the  appliance  will  not  operate,  follow  the  instructions  “TO  TURN  OFF  GAS  TO  APPLIANCE”  and  call  your

service  technician  or  gas  supplier.

TO TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE

1.

Turn  off  the  wall  switch.

2.

Turn  gas  line  to  the  “OFF”  position.

3.

Close  control  access  panel.

I.  DETERMINING  THE  IGNITION  TYPE

To  determine  whether  your  appliance  is  an  electronic

ignition  or  a  standing  pilot  ignition,  open  the  control

access panel to examine the wiring system. If your system

has a red ignitor button (as shown in Figure 39), you own

a standing pilot ignition appliance. If no red ignitor button

is present, you have an electronic ignition appliance.
You may also check the rating label located on the inside

of the control access panel to determine ignition type.

WARNING! If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result

causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
