VARIABLE CONTROL
OPERATION
The variable control valve can be set to any heat
setting and flame height desired, by simply
turning the control knob until that setting is
attained. Even the lowest setting provides real-
istic, dancing yellow flames. Selecting higher
settings produces greater heat output. This re-
sults in increased heating comfort.
CAUTION: Do not try to ad-
just heating levels by using the
equipment shutoff valve.

FOR YOUR SAFETY
READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not fol-
low these instructions exactly,
a fire or explosion may result
causing property damage, per-
sonal injury or loss of life.
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 floor because some gas is heavier than
air and will settle on the floor.
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 fire 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 qualified service tech-
nician or gas supplier. 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 quali-
fied service technician to inspect the appli-
ance and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been
under water.
