Thermostat Potentiometer Replacement Procedure

Step 4. Loosenset screw of adjusting

knob (small blade screw driver)

and remove adjustingknob

from potentiometer. (seephotos at right)

Step 5. Removeretaining nut (½" wrench)

and washer from potentiometer.

(see photos at right)

Step 6. From insideof surround area, remove potentiometer

with gasket from side of surround. Notice how indexing

tab onpotentiometer assembles into locating hole of

surround. (seephotos below)

Step 7. Disconnect potentiometer wireleads.

(see photoat right)

Step 8. Install new potentiometer withgasket into side of surround. Be sure to assemble with

indexing tab inserted into locating hole on side of surround (see photos above).

Step 9. Reconnect wires to potentiometer. Note: Wireleads are interchangeable with either wire.

Step 10. Restore120 volt power supply to water heater and confirm proper operation following

thelighting instructions on the lighting instruction label or the lighting instruction located

in the installation and operating instruction manual.

Step 11. Replace surroundcover on top of heater.

Step 1. Position main power switch to “OFF”

Step 2. Disconnect (unplug) water heater from

120 volt power source.

Step 3. Un-latch and remove top surround cover

from top of heater.

WARNING
