6. Find pilot - the pilot is in front
of the rear log.
7. Turn gas control knob
counterclockwise
to
"PILOT."
8. Push in gas control knob all
the way and hold in. Repeatedly push the piezo ignitor
button until pilot is lit (or use a match to light pilot).
Continue to hold the control knob in for about one (1)
minute after the pilot is lit. Release knob and it will pop
back up. Pilot should remain lit. If it goes out, repeat
steps 4 through 8.
• If knob does not pop up when released, stop and im-
mediately call your service technician or gas supplier.
• If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries, turn the gas
control knob to "OFF" and call your service technician
or gas supplier.
9. Attention! Gas control has an INTERLOCK latching de-
vice. When the pilot is initially lit and the safety magnet
is energized (pilot stays "ON") the INTERLOCK latching
device becomes operative. If the gas control is turned to
the "OFF" position or gas flow to the appliance is shut
off, the pilot cannot be relighted until the safety magnet
is de-energized (approximately 60 seconds). There will
be an audible "click" when the safety magnet in the gas
control is de-energized. Pilot can now be relighted.
Repeat steps 4 through 8.
10. Turn gas control knob counterclockwise
to "5".
11. Turn on all electric power to appliance (if applicable).
12. Set thermostat (gas control knob) to desired setting from

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.

Do not use any phone in your building.

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, don't try to repair it; call a qualified service
technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire
or explosion.
D. Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect
