LIGHTING AND SHUT-DOWN
Lighting the Heater:
1.
Before attempting to light the heater, smell all around
the heater area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the
floor because LP-Gas is heavier than air and will settle
on the floor. Turn on the gas supply to the appliance
and check all fittings and connections for gas leaks
using a mild soap and water solution. NEVER use a
match to check for gas leaks. Should a gas leak occur,
shut off the gas supply to the appliance immediately.
Wait a minimum of five minutes before repairing the
leak.
