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 build-

ing.

• 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 technician 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.
