causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

A.This appliance has a pilot which must be lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions exactly.

do not use any phone in your building.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a neigh- bor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

C.Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas control handle. Never use tools. If the handle will not push in or turn by hand, don't try to repair it; call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
