INSTRUCTIONS TO THE
HOMEOWNER
For Your Safety Read Before
Lighting
WARNING
Fire or Explosion Hazard can cause property
damage, severe injury or death.
Before lighting, smell all around the appliance
area for gas. If the appliance uses LP (bottled)
gas, also be sure to smell next to the floor
because LP gas is heavier than air. If you smell
gas, immediately shut off the manual valve in the
gas piping to the appliance, or, ON LP, AT THE
TANK. Do not try to light any appliance. Don't
touch any electrical switch or use the phone.
LEAVE THE BUILDING and call your gas supplier.
If your gas supplier cannot be reached, call the
fire department.
Do not force the gas control knob on the
appliance. Use only your hand to push down the
reset button or turn the gas control knob. Never
use any tools. If the knob or reset button will not
operate by hand, the control should be replaced
by a qualified service technician. Force or
attempted repair may result in fire or explosion.
The gas control must be replaced if it has been
flooded with water. Call a qualified service
technician.
If the red reset button stays depressed after it is
released, the gas control should be replaced.
The gas control is a safety device. It must be
replaced in case of any physical damage such as
bent terminals, missing or broken parts, stripped
threads, or evidence of exposure to heat.
IMPORTANT
Follow the operating instructions provided by
the manufacturer of your heating appliance.
The information below will be of assistance in a
typical control application, but the specific
controls used and the procedures outlined by
the manufacturer of your appliance may differ,
requiring special instructions.
To Light The Pilot Burner
STOP: Read the safety information above.
1. This appliance has a pilot burner which must be lit
by hand. If the pilot flame has gone out, follow
these instructions exactly.

tric power to appliance.
3. Remove burner access panel if provided on your
appliance.
4. Turn gas control knob (Fig. 4) clockwise to
OFF position.
5. Wait five minutes to allow any gas in the
combustion chamber to vent. If you then smell
gas in the appliance area or near the floor in an LP
installation, immediately shut off the manual valve
in the gas piping to the appliance or, WITH LP, AT
THE TANK. Don't touch any electrical switch or
use the phone. LEAVE THE BUILDING and call your
gas supplier. If your gas supplier cannot be
reached, call the fire department. Failure to do so
may result in fire or explosion.
6. If you don't smell gas, turn knob on gas control
counterclockwise to PILOT.
7. Push and hold down red reset button (Fig. 4) while
you light the pilot burner. Continue to hold the
reset button down for about one minute after the
pilot is lit. Release button; pilot should remain lit. If
it goes out, repeat steps 4-7. If the reset button
does not pop up when released, stop immediately
and call your service technician or gas supplier. If
pilot will not remain lit after several tries, turn gas
control knob to OFF and call your service techni-
cian or gas supplier.
8. When pilot remains lit, turn gas control knob
counterclockwise to ON.
