9.Once the temperature is within the correct range, safety wire the handle of the manual bypass valve in place and tag the valve to prevent change in the water flow.
SECTION 3.
Operating Instructions
3A. General Information
With any new pool or spa installation, operate the filter pump with the heater off long enough to com- pletely clean the water. This will remove any installation residue from the water. Clean the filter at the end of this operation before starting the heater. When raising the temperature of a cold pool, remove all time clock settings. This lets the filter system and heater operate continuously until the water reaches the temperature setting on the temperature control. When that happens, the heater will automatically shut off, but the filter pump will keep running.
Caution
Do not use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician 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 qualifié et remplacez toute partie du système de contrôle et toute commande 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
Keep all objects off the top of the heater. Blocking air flow could damage the heater, and may void the warranty.
WARNING
Vent pipes, drafthoods, and heater tops get hot! These surfaces can cause serious burns. Do not touch these surfaces while the heater is in operation. Adding a vent cap reduces the temperature on the top.
WARNING
For your safety, when starting the heater, keep your head and face well away from the lower firebox opening to prevent any risk of personal injury.
3B. Lighting and Shutdown Procedures
NOTE: If your LP tank runs out of fuel, turn off gas at the heater. After the tank is refilled, the heater must be relit following the instructions found on the inside of the heater. DO NOT attempt repairs on the gas control or heater. Tampering is dangerous and voids all warranties.

3B-2. Model LG (see Page 18).
3C. Setting the Temperature Control
The temperature control (see Figure 18) is calibrated at the factory and covers a range from approximately 70°F to 104°F (21°C to 40°C). Use an accurate pool thermometer to determine the best water temperature for your uses.
The Laars Lite 2 model LD has dual temperature controls, which allows two different temperature settings, selected by the rotary switch in the middle of the panel. One control can be set for normal use and the other for standby; or one can be set for pool and the other for a spa. Placing the rotary switch in the middle turns off the heater (see Figure 18). The model LG has only a single control and is set similarly to the LD above.
IMPORTANT: The temperature controls cannot be calibrated in the field. If the control is faulty, shut down the heater and have a qualified service technician replace the control. DO NOT use the thermostat switch to completely shut down the heater.
