2. CLOSE the cold water inlet valve to the water heater.

AWARNING

The temperature-pressure relief valve must be

manually operatedat least once a year. Caution should be taken to ensure that (1) no one is in front

of or around the outlet of the temperature-pres- sure relief valve discharge line, and (2) the water

manually discharged will not cause any property

damage or bodily injury. 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.

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.

AWARNING

If the temperature-pressure relief valve on the ippliance weeps or discharges periodically, this

nay be due to thermal expansion. Your water _eater 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. Do not plug the temperature- pressure relief valve.

3.OPEN a nearby hot water faucet and leave open to allow for draining.

4.Connect a hose to the drain valve and terminate to an ade- quate drain or outdoors.

5.OPEN the water heater drain valve to allow for tank draining.

NOTE: If the water heater is going to be shut down and

drained for an extended perind, the drain valve should be left open with hose connected allowing water to termi-

nate m an adequate drain.

6.Close the drain valve.

7.Follow "Filling the Water Heater" instructions in the "Instructions for Installation" section.

8.Turn "ON" power to the water heater.

_,CAUTION
