LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
PIEZO IGNITOR
TO TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE
• 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 technician. 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.
8.
Push in manual gas control knob all the way and hold in.
Repeatedly push the piezo ignitor button until pilot is lit (or
use a match to light). Continue to hold the control knob in
for about one (1) minute after the pilot is lit. Release knob
and it will pop back up. Pilot should remain lit. If it goes out,
repeat steps 4 through 8.
•
If knob does not pop up when released, stop and immedi-
ately call a qualified service technician or gas supplier.
•
If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries, turn the
gas control knob to "OFF" and call a qualified service
technician or gas supplier.
9.
Attention! Gas control has an INTERLOCK latching device.
When the pilot is initially lit and the safety magnet is ener-
gized (pilot stays "ON") the INTERLOCK latching device
becomes operative. If the gas control is turned to the "OFF"
position or gas flow to the appliance is shut off, the pilot
cannot be relighted until the safety magnet is de-energized
(approximately 60 seconds). There will be an audible "click"
when the safety magnet in the gas control is de-energized.
Pilot can now be relighted. Repeat steps 4 through 8.
