shower)

WATER HEATER
The water heater is designed to heat water quickly and efficiently. The water heater
manufacturer has preset the sensing limit to maintain the water temperature when the water
heater is activated.
Operating instructions:
WARNING
Do not replace any component part with an accessory part that is not authorized by
the water heater manufacturer, such as an “add-on” electric heating element. Such
items are not approved to be installed and could create an unsafe condition and will
void all warranties.
WARNING
Hydrogen gas may result if you have not used the water heater for two weeks or
more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. To reduce the risk
of injury under these conditions, open the hot water faucet for several minutes at the
kitchen sink before you use any electrical appliance connected to the hot water
system. If hydrogen is present, you may hear what sounds like air escaping through
the pipe as the water begins to flow. Hydrogen gas may be present even after water
has been drained from the water heater tank. Open the faucet at the sink and allow
the system to vent for five to ten minutes. Do not smoke or have any open flame near
the open faucet while venting. On DSI water heater models, make sure the switch is
OFF.
WARNING
If you smell propane gas then STOP! and follow the procedures listed in the Fuel
Systems section of this manual before attempting to operate the water heater.
