NOTE! Odours may be present when using the stove for
the first time:
When used for the first time and hot, the appliance
will emit a harmless, non-toxic odour. It is recommended
that the room should be thoroughly ventilated (by
opening doors or windows) during initial use. The gas is
not toxic, but the room should be thoroughly aired out.
During first use, it may take a short time before the gas
tube is cleared of air, but subsequently the appliance
should function as described in the lighting instruction.
Prior to lighting:
• Use a soap and water solution to check all fuel connec-
tions for possible gas leaks. Use a digital gas detector to
check the area around the appliance and at the ceiling
as natural gas is lighter than air and will rise. Any leak
must be eliminated before the appliance is put into
service.If you detect an odor of gas, see Warnings under
Safety Precautions on page 5.
• 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.
