Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual Page 31
WARNING
Vent pipes and heater tops get hot! These surfaces
can cause serious burns. Do not touch these sur-
faces while the heater is in operation.
AVERTISSEMENT
Les tuyaux d’aération et le dessus de l’appareil
deviennent chauds! Ils peuvent causer de graves
brûlures. Ne touchez pas à ces surfaces lorsque
l’appareil est en marche.
CAUTION
Do not use this heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualifi ed service techni-
cian to inspect the heater and replace any part of
the control system and any gas control which has
been under water.
ATTENTION
N'utilisez pas cet appareil s'il a été plongé dans
l'eau, même partiellement. Faites inspecter
l'appareil par un technicien qualifi é et remplacez
toute partie du système de contrôle et toute com-
mande qui ont été plongés dans l'eau.
CAUTION
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the
heater.
ATTENTION
En cas de surchauffe ou si l'alimentation en gaz ne
s'arrête pas, fermez manuellement le robinet d'arrêt
de l'admission de gaz.
CAUTION
Do not attempt repairs on the gas controls or appli-
ance. Tampering is dangerous and voids all warran-
ties.
ATTENTION
Ne tentez pas d’effectuer des réparations au sys-
tème de régulation du débit du gaz ou à l’appareil.
Toute modifi cation non autorisée est dangereuse et
entraîne l’annulation de toutes les garanties.
CAUTION
Keep all objects off the top of the heater. Blocking
air fl ow could damage the heater and might void the
warranty.
ATTENTION
Ne posez aucun objet sur le dessus de l’appareil.
Il pourrait empêcher la circulation de l’air, ce qui
risquerait d’endommager l’appareil et d’annuler la
garantie.
Be sure that there is water in the pool and that the
surface level is above the skimmer or other inlet of the
pool's fi lter system.
Confi rm that pool water is fl owing normally
through the pool system and equipment. With any new
pool or spa installation, operate the fi lter pump with
the heater off long enough to completely clean the wa-
ter. This will remove any installation residue from the
water. Clean the fi lter at the end of this operation be-
fore starting the heater. Start the heater in accordance
with the Operating Instructions section of this manual,
with particular attention to the lighting and shutdown
instructions and temperature control operation.
The heater may not start on the fi rst try. Air in
the gas line or other start-up situations may cause it
to cycle. It will lock out if ignition is not achieved in
three (3) attempts. (See Section 9.2, Service Codes.)
To reset the LXi heater to provide three (3) additional
attempts, turn off the control and then put it back in
either the Pool or Spa mode.
When the heater starts, immediately feel the
outlet header of the heater to confi rm that there is ad-
equate water fl ow. The header should not be hot. Nor-
mally, water temperature will rise only a few degrees
as it passes through the heater, and a “hot” header or
pipe indicates low water fl ow.
WARNING
When the heater is fi red for the fi rst time, the com-
bustion chamber refractory binder material is driven
out by the heat of the fl ame. White smoke and/or
sharp odors may be emitted from the vent during
this period. Do not inhale combustion product fumes
at any time, and especially when these fumes are
being emitted. This “burn-in” period will last only a
few minutes.
AVERTISSEMENT
Lorsque l’appareil est mis en marche pour la
première fois, le matériau liant réfractaire de la
chambre de combustion est expulsé par la chaleur
de la fl amme. De la fumée blanche et de fortes
odeurs peuvent se dégager du tuyau d’aération à
ce moment-là. N’inhalez les fumées de combustion
à aucun moment, surtout au moment où elles sont
émises. Cette période de combustion ne durera que
quelques minutes.
When raising the temperature of a cold pool,
program the time clock to turn the pump off 23 hours
after the start time. For example, if the start time is
2:00 PM, then set the stop time at 1:00 PM.. This lets
the fi lter system and heater operate continuously until
the water reaches the temperature setting on the tem-
perature control. When that happens, the heater will
automatically shut off, but the fi lter pump will keep
running.
