WARNINGS: 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. It is equipped with an ignition

device which automatically lights the burner(s). Do not try to light the
burner(s) by hand.

• Before operating, 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.

• Open windows.
• Don’t touch electrical switches.
• Extinguish any open flame.
• Immediately call your gas supplier.

• Use only your hand to turn the gas control ON/OFF knob on the gas

valve. Never use tools. If the valve ON/OFF knob will not turn by hand,
