LIGHTING

WARNING: If you do not fol- low these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result caus- ing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

A.This appliance has a pilot which lights automatically when using the sup- plied wall switch or remote control. If you have a power outage, the pilot may be lighted by hand with push- button piezo ignitor. When lighting the pilot, the following warnings must be followed.

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 building.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

If you cannot reach your gas sup- plier, call the fire department.

C.Electric Power Outage Only: Use only your hand to turn the manual over- ride handle on the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, don’t try to repair it, call a qualified service technician or gas supplier. Force or attempted re- pair 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 re- place any part of the control sys- tem and any gas control which has been under water.
