IGNITOR ASSEMBLY

The ignitor assembly is factory preset for 

proper ignition of the burner. Alterations may 

have occurred during shipping and handling. 

Call a qualified service person to readjust the 

ignitor assembly if necessary.
The ignitor should be positioned as shown 

in Figure 28.

Note: Figure 28, shows the correct positioning 

of the ignitor and sensing rod.
If your ignitor assembly does not meet these 

requirements:
•  turn appliance off (see 

To Turn Off Gas to 

Appliance

, page 17).

•  see 

Troubleshooting

, page 18

OPERATION

FOR YOUR SAFETY 

READ BEFORE LIGHTING

 WARNING: If you do not fol-

low these instructions exactly, 

a  fire  or  explosion  may  result 

causing property damage, per

-

sonal injury or loss of life.

A.  This appliance does not have a pilot, 

it is equipped with an ignition device 

which automatically lights the pilot. Do 

not light pilot by hand.

B.  BEFORE  LIGHTING  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 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.  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.
