A.

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

appliance area for gas.  Be sure to smell near

*Do not try to light any appliance.
*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.

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, do not try to repair 
it.  Call a qualified service technician.  Force or
attempted repair may result in a fire or explo-
sion.

D. Do not use this appliance if any part has been

under water.  Immediately call a qualified serv-
ice technician to inspect the appliance and to
replace any part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.
