FOR YOUR SAFETY: READ BEFORE LIGHTING
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal
injury or loss of life.
BEFORE OPERATING: 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.
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.
NEVER store any materials within the vicinity of the appliance or ventilation openings.
