WARNING
IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THE
WARNINGS BELOW AND THE LIGHTING
INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR
EXPLOSION CAN RESULT WITH
PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL
INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
Follow these warnings exactly:
1. Pilot flame is lit automatically. Do not light the
pilot flame manually.
2. Before lighting pilot burner flame, smell around
the appliance for gas. Be sure to smell next to
the floor because LP gas is heavier than air.

3. IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Turn off the gas supply at the appliance
service valve. On LP gas systems, turn off
gas supply at the gas tank.
• Do not light any appliances.
• Do not touch electrical switches or use the
phone.
• Leave the building and use a neighbor's
phone to call your gas supplier.
• If you can not reach your gas supplier, call
the fire department.
4. Do not force the gas control knob. Use only
your hand to push down or turn the gas control
knob. Never use any tools. If the gas control
knob will not operate by hand, call a qualified
service technician to replace the entire gas
control. Force or attempted repair can result in
a fire or explosion.
5. Call a qualified service technician to replace
the entire gas control if it has been flooded
with water.
6. Replace the entire gas control in the event of
any physical damage, tampering, bent termi-
nals, missing or broken parts, stripped threads,
or evidence of exposure to heat.
