For Your Safety Read Before Operating:
: 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 does not have a pilot light. It is equipped with a hot surface
igniter that automatically lights the burner. Do not attempt to light the burner by
hand.
BEFORE OPERATING smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to
smell next to the ground because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on
the ground.
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.
Use only your hand to operate the gas control valve knob or, if equipped, the
gas control valve switch. Never use tools. If the knob or lever will not move,
don’t try to repair it, call a qualified service technician. Forced or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion.
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 that has been under water.
