IMPORTANT SAFETY BULLETIN ON YOUR GAS CONTROL AND PILOT LIGHT

SYSTEM FOR HEATING EQUIPMENT

WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW CAN HURT YOU.

Your pilot light system has been designed for safe and reliable operation. Although safety mechanisms are built-in, the potential for hazard exists. This information is intended to help you avoid these hazards.

YOUR GAS CONTROL AND PILOT LIGHT

SYSTEM

Your gas control and pilot light system has a safety device whose purpose is to shut-off the gas supply to the appliance if the pilot light goes out. If you have trouble lighting the pilot or keeping it lit, it may mean that this safety device is warning you that there is a problem with your system. Inspection and repairs or replacement must be made by a trained gas service technician.

TAMPERING IS DANGEROUS

The pilot safety system may also not work if you do not follow the lighting instructions carefully or if you tamper with the gas control that you use to light the pilot. Tampering with the gas control, particularly with tools, can damage the safety mechanism in the control and can allow gas to leak. This can result in a fire or explosion causing property damage, personal injury or death.

IF YOU SMELL GAS, DON’T LIGHT IT

IF YOU CAN’T LIGHT IT,

DON’T FIGHT IT!

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS . . .

Do not try to light any appliance.

Do not touch any electrical 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.

Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

CRITICAL SAFETY POINTS TO

REMEMBER . . .

Your gas has been odorized so that you can smell it. Always smell around for gas before lighting your appliance.

Sniff for L.P.-gas at floor level. LP-gas is heavier than air and may temporarily exist at floor level.

If you smell gas, do not attempt to light the pilot. Do not cause a spark by turning on or off electrical switches or appliances or by using the phone. Turn off the gas to the appliances and call your gas supplier from another location.

If your gas control has gotten wet as the result of flooding or other wetting, it must be replaced immediately by a trained gas service technician. Water can lead to damage of the internal safety mechanism in the gas control and can create a hazardous condition.
