OPERATING FIREPLACE

MILLIVOLT MODELS

FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: If you do not fol-

low 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.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric 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 tech-

nician or gas supplier. 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.
