5.0 OPERATION
Upon completing the gas line connection, a small amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting the burner, it will take a few seconds
for the lines to purge themselves of this air.
Once the purging is complete, the burner will light and operate as indicated in the instruction manual. Subsequent lighting of the appliance
will not require such purging unless the gas supply has been disconnected.
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:
A. This appliance must be lit by hand while following these instructions exactly.
B. Before operating smell all around the appliance area for gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on
the floor
C. Use only your hand to turn the manual gas control valve. Never use tools. If the valve will not turn by hand, do not 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
replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
● Do not try to light any appliance.
● Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone
in your building.
1. Locate the manual gas control valve.
2. Place the firestarter near the burner ports on top of the burner. Light the firestarter. For a Natural Gas unit, turn on the
ON/OFF valve slowly at the unit. For a LP unit, turn the valve in the LP tank counter clockwise all the way and then
turn on the ON/OFF valve slowly at the unit.
3. If the burner does not light before the fire starter goes out, immediately turn the gas off.
4. Wait at least five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas including near the base of the unit. If you smell
gas, STOP! Refer to the safety information in the owner's manual. If you don't smell gas, repeat step 2.
Turn the ON/OFF valve to the off position at the unit for Natural Gas unit.
For LP unit, turn the ON/OFF valve to the off position at the unit and then turn the valve on the LP tank to the OFF position
clockwise.
NOTE: The propane regulator in this appliance is equipped with a low flow protection device. Unless the propane
cylinder valve is opened before the appliance valve, the gas flow will be reduced resulting in a very small flame.
To reset this device, shut off the appliance valve, then the propane cylinder valve.
Next, disconnect the regulator adaptor from the tank and then reconnect. Follow the lighting procedure ensuring
the propane cylinder valve is opened before the unit is.
● Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's
phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.
● If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire
department.
