Starting The Pilot Flame
The pilot flame is required to ignite the main
burners (it also plays a safety role). It should be
left on once lit. It will stay lit unless the gas
control valve is turned to "OFF". However, the
pilot will go out if the gas is shut off, the
propane tank runs out (or low) or if the stove
malfunctions. If the pilot turns off frequently,
call your dealer for information. To start the
pilot follow the directions below:
WARNING :
When lighting or re-lighting the
pilot, the door must be opened (see
page 16).
a Open the door (see page 16 for details).
b Push the gas control knob in slightly and turn
it to the "OFF" position. The knob will not
turn from "ON" to "OFF" unless the knob is
depressed slightly. Wait five minutes to let
any gas that may have accumulated inside
the firebox escape. If you smell leaking gas,
follow the directions on the cover "IF YOU
SMELL GAS".
c Turn the gas control knob to the "PILOT"
position and press the knob in, this will allow
gas to flow to the pilot light. Press the red
button on the pilot igniter repeatedly until
you see the pilot light.
WARNING:
If the pilot does not light after 15
seconds, release the knob and call
your dealer for service. Do not
attempt to light pilot until service
has been performed.
N O T E :

to gain a better view of the pilot (see
page 17).
d Keep the gas control knob depressed for 30
seconds once it is lit.
e Release the gas control knob. If the pilot
goes out, repeat step C. If the pilot refuses
to stay lit, call your dealer for service. With
the pilot lit, proceed to step ÒfÓ.
f Close the door.
g Turn the gas control knob counter-clockwise
to "ON". The pilot is now lit and the heater
can be turned on and off.
