OPERATING hEATER

FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: If you do not fol-

low these instructions exactly,

a fire or explosion may result

causing property damage, per-

sonal 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.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric 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 tech-

nician or gas supplier. 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.

LIGHTING

INSTRUCTIONS

NOTICE: During initial operation

of new heater, burning logs will

give off a paper-burning smell.

Orange flame will also be present.

Open a window to vent smell. This

will only last a few hours.

1. STOP! Read the safety information, above.

2. Make sure equipment shutoff valve is fully

open.

3. Turn control knob clockwise

to the

OFF position.

4. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas.

Then smell for gas, including near the floor.

If you smell gas, STOP! Follow “B” in the

safety information, column 1. If you don’t

smell gas, go to the next step.

5. Turn control knob counterclockwise

to the PILOT position. Press in control knob

for five (5) seconds (see Figure 19).

Note: You may be running this heater for

the first time after hooking up to gas sup-

ply. If so, the control knob may need to be

pressed in for 30 seconds or more. This will

allow air to bleed from the gas system.

6. With control knob pressed in, press and

release ignitor button. This will light pilot.

The pilot is attached to the front burner. If

needed, keep pressing ignitor button until

Note: If pilot does not stay lit, contact a

qualified service person or gas supplier for

repairs. Until repairs are made, light pilot

with match. To light pilot with match, see

Manual Lighting Procedure, page 15.

7. Keep control knob pressed in for 30 seconds

after lighting pilot. After 30 seconds, release

control knob.

• If control knob does not pop out when

released, contact a qualified service person

or gas supplier for repairs.

Note: If pilot goes out, repeat steps 3

through 7. This heater has a safety interlock

system. Wait one (1) minute for system to

reset before lighting pilot again.

8. Turn control knob counterclockwise

to desired heating level. The burners should

light. Set control knob to any heat level

between HI and LO.

CAUTION: Do not try to ad-

just heating levels by using the
