FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE LIGHTING
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fi re or explosion may result, causing
property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
Do not use this appliance if any part has been underwater. Immediately call for a qualifi ed professional
service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control
that has been underwater.
BEFORE LIGHTING, smell all around the burner area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the fl oor, as some
gas is heavier than air and will settle on the fl oor. IF YOU SMELL GAS, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Turn off any electrical appliance.
2. Press the "I" (Ignite) switch on the front of the switch
box. This transmits a rapid series of sparks at the pilot
head and will ignite the gas.
Sparks cease when the pilot fl ame is lit and stable. After a
short time, the pilot will then light the main burner.
CAUTION: IF THE BURNER DOES NOT IGNITE WITHIN
20 SECONDS, TURN OFF, WAIT 5 MINUTES,
THEN REPEAT STEPS 1. AND 2. ABOVE.
If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries, turn the switch
box to "O" (OFF) and contact a qualifi ed professional service
technician or gas supplier.
PILOT APPEARANCE
Periodically check the pilot for proper fl ame pattern. The

at the factory (see Fig. 17-2).
If the pilot fl ame burns incorrectly; shut down completely
and contact a qualifi ed professional service technician.
SHUTTING DOWN
1. Simply press the "O" (OFF) switch on the front of the
switch box. The gas fl ow will cease, and all the fl ames
