FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or
explosion may result, causing property damage, per-
sonal injury or loss of life.
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.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
“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 neigh-
bor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your 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. Forced 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.

Gas Pressure Regulation Ranges:
If the desired input rating cannot be obtained within the
above manifold pressure adjusting range, then the next
size larger or smaller burner orifice should be used.
The gas pressure coming out of the regulator and going
to the burner ring has been factory set for elevations of
0 to 2000 ft. Altitudes greater than 2000 ft will require
adjustments to the gas manifold pressures. Consult
your local service dealer/distributor for high altitude
adjustments. In Canada, certification for installation
at altitudes over 4500 feet above sea level is the
jurisdiction of local authorities. You should not readjust
the burner ring gas pressure. If you replace your gas
valve, you will need to adjust the new valve. Refer
to your machine’s specification plate for the correct
pressure setting. Follow the installation and adjustment
instructions provided with your replacement valve.
NOTE:
Air for combustion and ventilation along with
exhaust flue sizing must conform to methods outlined
in current American Standard (ANSI-Z223.1) National
Fuel Gas Code or National Standard of Canada
CSA-149.1 and CSA-149.2 “Installation Code for Gas
Burning Appliances”.
