INSTRUCTIONS TO THE HOMEOWNER (FOR
YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE OPERATING)

WARNING

FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
CAN CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE,
SEVERE INJURY, OR DEATH

Follow these warnings exactly:
1. Pilot flame is lit automatically. Do not light the

pilot flame manually.

2. Before lighting pilot burner flame, smell around

the appliance for gas. Be sure to smell next to
the floor because LP gas is heavier than air.

3. IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Turn off the gas supply at the appliance ser-

vice valve. On LP gas systems, turn off gas
supply at the gas tank.

• Do not light any appliances in the house.
• Do not touch electrical switches or use the

phone.

• Leave the building and use a neighbor’s

phone to call your gas supplier.

• If you can not reach your gas supplier, call

the fire department.

4. Do not force the gas control knob. Use only

your hand to push down or turn the gas control
knob. Never use any tools. If the gas control
knob will not operate by hand, call a qualified
service technician to replace the gas control.
Force or attempted repair can result in a fire or
explosion.

5. Call a qualified service technician to replace

the gas control if it has been flooded with
water.

6. Replace the gas control in the event of any

physical damage, tampering, bent terminals,
missing or broken parts, stripped threads, or
evidence of exposure to heat.

IMPORTANT: Follow the operating instructions pro-

vided by the manufacturer of your heating appliance.
The information below will be of assistance in a
typical gas control application, but the specific con-
trols used and the procedures outlined by the manu-
facturer or your appliance may differ and require
special instructions.
