AWARNING

HYDROGEN GAS: Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for a

long period of time (generally two weeks or more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable and explosive.

To prevent the possibility of injury under these con- ditlons, we recommend the hot water faucet be

opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before any electrical appliances which are connected to the hot water system are used (such as a dish- washer or washing machine). If hydrogen gas is pre- sent, there will probably be an unusual sound simi- lar to air escaping through the pipe as the hot water faucet is opened. There must be no smoking or open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.

AWARNING I

INSULATING JACKETS: When installing an external I water heater insulation jacket on a gas water heater:

• DO NOT cover the temperature-pressure relief valve.

• DO NOT put insulation over any part of the top of

the gaswater heater.

• DO NOT put insulation over the gas control valve or

gas control valve/burner cover, or any access areas to the burner.

• DO NOT let insulation around the gas water heater

to get within 8 inches of the floor (air must get to the burner).

• DO NOT cover or remove operating instructions,

and safety related warning labels and materials affixed to the water heater.

Failure to heed this will result in the possibility of fire or explosion.

Operating

J AWARNING

BEFORE OPERATI_(L.P.) GAS WATER HEATERS]: Propane (L.P.) gas is heavier than air.

Should there be a leak in the system, the gas will settle near the ground. Basements, crawl spaces,

skirted areas under manufactured (mobile) homes (even when ventilated), closets and areas below

ground level will serve as pockets for the accumula-

tion of this gas. Before attempting to operate the water heater or turning on a nearby electrical light

switch, be absolutely sure there is no accumulated gas in the area. Search for odor of gas by sniffing at [Figure 101

ground level in the vicinity of the appliance. If odor

L J

[s detected, follow steps indicatedat "For Your Safety" on the cover page of this manual then leave

the premises.

Operating instructions are located on front of the water heater, above or to one side of the gas control valve.

_,WARNING
