• This appliance does not have a pilot. It is equipped with an igni
-
tion device which automatically lights the burner. Do not try to
light the burner by hand.
• 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 gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call your fire department.
• Use only your hand to turn the gas control ON/OFF knob on
the gas valve. Never use tools. If the valve ON/OFF knob will
not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a qualified service
technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or
explosion.
• Should overheating occur, or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn
off the manual gas valve to the appliance before shutting off the
electrical supply.
