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.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
“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 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 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 technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
PILOT LIGHTING PROCEDURE
1. Turn the gas control knob to the OFF position (it will
be necessary to depress the knob slightly at the
PILOT position). Allow five minutes for any gas in the
combustion chamber to escape (LP gas, which is
heavier than air, may require forced ventilation).
2. Turn the gas control knob to the PILOT position.
3. Push down on the gas control knob and light the pilot
immediately. Hold the knob down for one full minute
after lighting the pilot.
4. When the gas control knob is released, the pilot flame
should continue to burn (if the pilot goes out, repeat
the above steps).
5. Rotate the gas control knob from PILOT to ON
position (full counterclockwise position) to
supply full flow to main burner.
Not turning the gas control knob to the full ON position will
reduce the flow and could result in poor ignition of main
burner.
PILOT FLAME ADJUSTMENT
These controls are factory preset and will not normally
require additional adjustment of the pilot flame. If field
adjustment of the pilot flame is required, remove the pilot
adjust cover screw to expose the adjusting screw. Turn
the adjusting screw clockwise ( ) to reduce flame,
or counterclockwise ( ) to increase flame. Re-
place pilot adjust cover screw and tighten securely.
TESTING
After completing the installation, check for proper opera-
tion by turning the gas control knob to the PILOT position.
With the pilot lit, loosen the thermocouple connection. The
pilot should immediately go out. Turn the gas control knob
to the OFF position and retighten the thermocouple con-
nection.
Allow five minutes before relighting the pilot.
