MODEL #55345: LIGHTING AND SHUTDOWN PROCEDURES

NOTE: Prior to lighting, check all fittings for leakage. This is accomplished by applying soapy water on all connections made. If there

is any leakage, bubbles will appear at the point of connection. If bubbles occur, tighten the fittings until the bubbles no longer appear.

IMPORTANT: TEST ALL CONNECTIONS WHETHER FIELD OR FACTORY MADE.

NOTE: The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi.

NOTE: The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve during any pressure testing
of the gas line at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Pressure check taps for the manifold (outgoing) and inlet (incoming) pressures are located in front of the gas valve. The left pressure tap is the
manifold pressure and the right pressure tap is the incoming pressure. Follow instructions on page #27 for checking these pressures.

FOR YOUR SAFETY - READ BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

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

BEFORE LIGHTING, smell all around the appliance for gas. Be
sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier that air
and will settle on the floor.

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. Forced or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion, and loss of warranty.

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 which has
been under water.

DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE
VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.

DUE TO HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES, KEEP CHILDREN,
CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY.

This appliance needs fresh air for safe operation and must be
