damage, personal injury or loss of life.
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING
A. This appliance has a pilot which must be lighted by hand.
When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions exactly.
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 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 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 the appliance and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been under
water.
Under no circumstances should any solid fuel (wood, coal,
paper, cardboard, etc.) be used in this appliance. Keep area
around the appliance clear of combustible materials, gasoline,
and other flammable vapor and liquids.
Clothing or other flammable material should not be placed on
or near the appliance.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high
surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns or
clothing ignition.
Young children should be carefully supervised when they are
in the same room as the appliance. Toddlers, young children
and others may be susceptible to accidental contact burns. A
