The following is a copy of the operating and lighting instructions
found with each fireplace:
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING

EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT CAUSING PROP-
ERTY DAMAGE, INJURY, OR LOSS OF LIFE.

A. This appliance is equipped with a piezo ignition device to light
the pilot. When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions
exactly.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING, smell around the appliance area for gas.

DO NOT use any phone in the 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.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas control knob.
Never use any tool. If the knob 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.
D. DO NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the
