DISCHARGEPIPE

Failure to install and maintain a new properly listed tempera-

ture-pressure relief valve will release the manufacturer from any claim which might result from excessive temperature or pressure.

If the temperature-pressure relief valve on the appliance weeps or discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion. Your water heater may have a check valve installed in the water line or a water meter with a check valve. Call

Maytag Customer Service at 1-800-788-8899 for an authorized servicer for further information. Do not

plug the temperature-pressure relief valve.

AWARNING

When checking the temperature-pressure relief

valve operation, make sure that (1) no one is in

front of or around the outlet of the temperature- pressure relief valve discharge line, and (2)that the

water manually discharged will not cause any

property damage because the water may be

extremely hot.

If after manually operating the valve, it fails to completely reset and continues to release water,

immediately close the cold water inlet to the water

heater, follow the draining instructions, and replace the temperature-pressure relief valve with a new one.

Housekeeping

Vacuum around base of water heater for dust, dirt, and lint on a regular basis.

Combustible materials such as clothing, cleaning materials, or

flammable liquids, etc. must not be placed against or adjacent to the water heater.

To insure sufficient ventilation and combustion air supply, proper clearances from the water heater must be maintained at all times.

Service

Before calling for repair service, read the Start Up Conditions and Operational Conditions found in the Troubleshooting Guide of this manual.

If a condition persists or you are uncertain about the opera- tion of the water beater, let a qualified person check it out.

Call Maytag Customer Service at 1-800-788-8899 for an authorized servicer.
