Be sure to check all your gas pipes for leaks before lighting your
water heater. Use a soapy water solution, not a match or open
flame. Check the factory gas _ttings after pilot is lit and gas con-
trol knob is still in PILOT pos!tion. Then, check the fittings
when the main burner is turned ON". Use a soapy water solu-
tion for this, too.
