IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING! 
 For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk 
of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or 
loss of life.
WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been 
used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by 
turning on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any 
electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any  
built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or  
appliance during this process.
