SAFE SERVICING PRACTICES

To avoid the possibility of personal injury and/or property damage, it is important that safe servicing practices be observed. The following are examples, but without limitation, of such practices:

1.Do not attempt a product repair if you have any doubts as to your ability to complete it in a safe and satisfactory manner.

2.Before servicing or moving an appliance:

•remove fuse.

•turn off gas supply.

•turn off water supply.

3.Never interfere with the proper operation of any safety device.

4.USE ONLY REPLACEMENT PARTS

CATALOGED FOR THIS APPLIANCE. SUBSTITUTIONS MAY DEFEAT COMPLIANCE WITH SAFETY STANDARDS SET FOR HOME APPLIANCES.

5.GROUNDING: The standard color coding for safety ground wires is GREEN or GREEN with YELLOW STRIPES. Ground leads are not to be used as current carrying conductors.

IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN RE-ESTABLISH ALL SAFETY GROUNDS PRIOR TO COMPLETION OF SERVICE. FAILURE TO DO SO WOULD CREATE A POTENTIAL HAZARD.

6.Prior to returning the product to service ensure that:

• all electric, gas, and water connections are correctly and securely connected.

• all gas and water connections are tested for leaks. DO NOT TEST FOR GAS LEAKS WITH A FLAME.

• all electrical leads are properly dressed and secured away from sharp edges, high-temperature components and moving parts.

• all uninsulated electrical terminals, connectors, heaters, etc. have adequate spacing from all metal parts and panels.

• all safety grounds (both internal and external to the product) are correctly and securely connected.

• all panels are properly and securely reassembled.

CAUTION! When servicing a water-using appliance in a location where the water supply has not been in use for an extended time (such as vacation) open the hot water faucet at the sink and allow the water to run for several minutes allowing water and accumulated hydrogen gas to escape. Make sure there are no open flames (pilots) or cigarettes near the faucet.
