LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. STOP! Read the safety information above.
2. Set the thermostat (gas control knob) to lowest setting.
3. Turn off all electric power to the appliance (if appli-
cable).
4. Remove front panel.
5. Push in gas control knob slightly and turn clockwise
to "OFF".
6. Wait ten (10) minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell
for gas, including near the floor. If you smell gas, STOP!
Follow "B" in the safety information above. If you don't
smell gas, go to the next step.
7. Find pilot - follow metal tube
from gas control. The pilot is
attached to the main burner
which is located at bottom
of combustion chamber.
8. Turn knob on gas control counterclockwise
to "PILOT."
9. Push in gas control knob all the way and hold in.
Repeatedly push the piezo ignitor button until
pilot is lit (or use a match to light pilot). Continue
to hold the control knob in for about one (1) minute
after the pilot is lit. Release knob and it will pop
back up. Pilot should remain lit. If it goes out,
repeat steps 5 through 9.
• If knob does not pop up when released, stop and
immediately call your service technician or gas
supplier.
• If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries, turn
the gas control knob to "OFF" and call your
service technician or gas supplier.
10. Attention! Gas control has an INTERLOCK latching
device. When the pilot is initially lit and the safety
magnet is energized (pilot stays "ON") the INTER-
LOCK latching device becomes operative. If the gas
control is turned to the "OFF" position or gas flow to
the appliance is shut off, the pilot cannot be relighted
until the safety magnet is de-energized (approxi-
mately 60 seconds). There will be an audible "click"
when the safety magnet in the gas control is de-
energized. Pilot can now be relighted. Repeat steps 5
through 9.
11. Turn gas control knob counterclockwise to
"HI"
12. Replace front panel.
13. Turn on all electric power to the appliance (if appli-
cable).

2. Turn off all electric power to appliance if service is to be
performed (if applicable).
3 Push in gas control knob slightly and turn clock-
wise to "OFF". Do not force.
TO TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result
causing property damage, personal 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 electrical switch;
do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neigh-
bor'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 technician. 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 qualified service techni-
cian to inspect the appliance and to replace any part
of the control system and any gas control which has
been under water.
