turned on.
2.
Depress knob and turn fully counter-clockwise to “Lite” position.
a.
Verify sufficient gas supply before attempting to light the burner. Air
in the gas line will significantly delay burner ignition. The burner may light
unexpectedly as the air in the line clears and is replaced by LP gas. This
unexpected ignition could burn you. Air in the gas lines may occur after the
vehicle gas bottle and/or tank is refilled, during and after servicing other
appliances on same gas line, etc.
b.
Do not attempt to light more than one burner at a time.
c.
Immediately light burner by holding a long match near the burner ports.
CAUTION: Hand held ignitors may be used but be sure they are the type
designed for lighting open flame burners.
3.
If any burner should extinguish after initial lighting or due to accidental
blow-out, turn gas off by turning control knob clockwise
to “OFF”, wait
five (5) minutes before attempting to relight the burner. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in a fire or explosion.
If the burner should go out while cooking, or if there is an odor of gas, turn
control knob(s) clockwise to “OFF”. Wait five (5) minutes for gas odor to
disappear. If gas odor is still present - Do not relight burners. See “What To Do If
You Smell Gas” on the front cover of this manual.
4.
To turn burner(s) “OFF”, turn the appropriate control knob clockwise
to
“OFF”.
WARNING! Be sure all control knobs are turned “OFF” when you are not
cooking. Someone could be burned or a fire could start if a burner is
accidently left on or unattended even if only momentarily.
