WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
Do not attempt 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.
B. 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.
C. Do not use this appliance if any part of it has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service tech-
nician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control that has
been under water.
A. BEFORE OPERATING smell all around the appli-
ance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor
because some gas is heavier than air and will settle
on the floor.

exactly, a re or explosion may result
