low these instructions exactly, a

A. This appliance has a pilot which must
be lighted by hand. When lighting the
pilot, follow these instructions exactly.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around
the appliance 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 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 supplier,
call the re department.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn
the gas control knob. Never use tools.
If the knob will not push in or turn
by hand, don’t try to repair it, call a
qualied service technician. Force or
attempted repair may result in a re or
explosion.
D. Do not use this appliance if any part
has been under water. Immediately call
a qualied service technician to inspect
the appliance and to replace any part of
the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.
1. STOP! Read the safety information on
above.
2. Check that gas supply to heater is on.
3. Push in gas control knob slightly and turn

Note: Knob cannot be turned from PILOT to

not smell gas, go to the next step.
5. Push in gas control knob slightly and turn
counterclockwise to "PILOT/IGN"
and press for ve (5) seconds
Note: The rst time that the heater is
operated after connecting the gas supply,

air to bleed from the gas system. If pilot

pages 22 though 25. Also contact a quali-
ed service technician or gas supplier for
repairs. Until repairs are made, light pilot
with match.
