Lighting the pilot light on a modern Bradford White gas water heater requires careful execution of safety protocols outlined on the outer tank label. First, turn the gas control knob to the "Off" position and wait at least five minutes to allow any lingering gas to dissipate safely. Next, rotate the control dial to the "Pilot" position, depress the control button fully, and click the piezo igniter button repeatedly until you observe the pilot flame burning through the viewing window. Continue holding the button down for roughly thirty to sixty seconds to heat the thermocouple, release it to verify the flame stays lit, and finally turn the dial to the "On" position.
