Operating Instructions

Lighting
Note! Odors when using the stove:
When used for the first time, the appliance may emit
an irritating gas that may smell a little. The gas is not toxic,
but the room should be thoroughly aired out. During first
time use, it may take a little while before the gas tube is
cleared of air, but subsequently the appliance should
function as described in the lighting instruction. The
appliance operates with the aid of a pilot flame, which is lit
manually according to the lighting instruction.
Prior to lighting:
Check the area around the appliance for possible gas
leaks/odors. Especially check near the floor, since propane
is heavier than air and would gather close to the floor in
the event of a leakage. (Note: Natural gas is lighter than
air and will gather under the ceiling). If you detect an odor
of gas, see warning under: Safety precautions.
Only use your hands to operate the control knobs; do
not use tools. If you are unable to turn or push in the
control knob, do not use force. Call for service.
Do not use the appliance if any part of it has been
submerged in water. Call for service to replace the parts
that have been in water.
