OPERATING YOUR HEATER
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions
exactly, a re or explosion may result causing prop-
erty damage, personal injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance has a pilot that must be lighted
by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these
instructions exactly.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appli-
ance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the
oor because some gas is heavier than air and
will settle on the oor.
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 you gas supplier from a neigh-
bor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instruc-
tions.
• If you can not reach your gas supplier, call the
re department.
• Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas
control knob. Never use tools. If knob will not
push in or turn by hand, don’t try to repair it; call
a qualied service technician or gas supplier.
Force or attempted repair may result in a re or
explosion.
• Do not use this appliance if any part has been
underwater. Immediately call a qualied service
technician to inspect the appliance and to re-
place any part of the control system which has

3. Push in gas control knob and slightly turn clock-
wise to the OFF position (see gure 16).
Note: Knob cannot be turned from PILOT to OFF

you do not smell gas, go to the next step.
5. Push in gas control know slightly and turn
counterclockwise to PILOT/IGN and depress
for ve (5) seconds.

ing, pages 12-13. Also, contact a qualied
service person or gas supplier for repairs.

plier for repairs.
