WARNING
Lighting pilot 
The control has an interlock device that does not allow the lighting of the fireplace up to the moment the safety device of the flame has not interrupted the gas flow. After that period of time (when the magnet is closed), it is possible to start the lighting operation.
The gas control knob is designed to be operated by hand. DO NOT use any tools during this operation. Damaged knobs may result in serious injury.
1.Depress and turn knob counterclockwise 
to pilot position.
2.Depress fully and hold pilot gas knob. The elec- tronic ignitor will automatically ignite the pilot. Keep knob fully depressed for a few seconds. Release and check that pilot continues to burn.
If the pilot does not stay lit, repeat steps 1 and 2.
