your building.

phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

partment.

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 techni-
cian 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
