If your gas pack has a pilot light, lighting it is simple. First, make sure that the area around the gas pack is clear of any flammable materials. Then, locate the pilot light knob on the front of the unit and turn it to the on position. Next, use a long match or lighter to ignite the pilot light. Once the pilot light is lit, you can turn the knob to the off position. The pilot light will stay lit as long as there is a constant flow of gas. If the pilot light goes out, simply repeat these steps.
