INSTRUCTIONS TO THE
HOMEOWNER
WARNING
Fire or Explosion Hazard.

damage.

service valve. On LP gas systems, turn off
the gas supply at the gas tank.
(b) Do not light any appliance in the house.
(c) Do not touch electrical switches or use the
telephone.
(d) Leave the building and use a neighbor's
phone to call your gas supplier.
(e) If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call
the fire department.
2. Replace the gas control in the event of any
physical damage, tampering, bent terminals,
missing or broken parts, stripped threads, or
evidence of exposure to heat.
IMPORTANT:
Follow the operating instructions provided by the
heating appliance manufacturer. The information
below describes a typical control application, but
