The burner gas pressure must be checked and adjusted (if required) as part of
the commissioning procedure. Refer to Gas Details in the table on page 31 or
check the rating label of the water heater for the burner test point pressure with
the burner operating.
To check and adjust the burner gas pressure of the water heater:
1. Remove the access cover.
2. Close down the gas control (refer to “Close Down Procedure” on page 43)
and close the gas isolation valve to the water heater.

the test point.
5. Open the gas isolation valve fully.
6. Light the water heater and ensure the burner is operating (refer to
