LIGHTING AND SHUT DOWN
Lighting the Heater
1Before attempting the light the heater, smell all around the heater area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because LP Gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor. Turn on the gas supply to the appliance and check all fittings and connections for gas leaks using a mild soap and water solution. NEVER use a match to check for gas leaks. Should a gas leak occur, shut off the gas supply to the appliance immediately. Wait a minimum of five minutes before repairing the leak.
2Use only the fuel intended for this appliance. Check the appliance rating plate for the correct fuel information.
3Turn the gas valve knob clockwise to the “OFF” position. See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 for location of appliance parts.
4Wait a sufficient length of time (at least five minutes) to allow gas which may have accumulated in burner compartment to escape.

7b To light the pilot, move the lighting hole cover aside (see Fig. 1) and place a lighted match into the hole. Depress the gas valve knob and hold while lighting and observing the pilot burner. Ensure that the pilot burner ignites from the match. Allow the pilot to burn approximately 30 seconds before releasing the gas valve knob. If pilot does not remain lighted, repeat the lighting operation allowing a longer period of time before releasing the gas valve knob.
NOTE: In cases where long runs of gas supply lines have been installed ahead of the appliance, it may be necessary to bleed trapped air out of the supply lines before lighting the pilot. New installations generally require bleed of supply lines. Wait a minimum of five minutes after bleeding the supply lines before attempting to light the heater.
Adjust pilot if necessary as noted under “Pilot Burner Adjustment.”
