Water Heater Service Procedures
WARNING: ELECTRICAL GROUNDING
HAZARD.
When an appliance is equipped with a three-
prong (grounding) plug for your protection against
shock hazards, it should be plugged directly into
a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do
not cut or remove the grounding prong from this
plug. Failure to obey this warning could result in
death or serious injury.
CAUTION: SCALDING HAZARD.
Turn off the Water Heater before opening the P/T
relief valve to establish air space. Storage water
must be cool. Failure to obey this caution could
result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE: Do not operate without water in tank. Product
failure can occur.
NOTICE: Do not route wires around sharp objects or
where they could be smashed. Damage to the wires can
occur.
NOTICE: Do not li, push, or misalign the main burner
tube. Damage to the burner and the Water Heater can
occur.
Remember to check the basics before replacing
any parts, such as contributing issues. Refer to the
“Installation Issues” on page 29 and “Maintenance”
on page 48 for more detail.
