The Energy Menu is also used to change the water heater operating modes, to convert the temperature display from ºF to ºC, or to view the FAQs. There is also a Diagnostic Menu that is only accessible to a certified service technician or plumber in the event service is needed.

Operating Modes

Use this option to change between eHeat™, Hybrid, Standard Electric and High Demand modes (described on page 8).

1To access any of these modes, press the ENERGY MENU button and then press ENTER.

2Select Operating Modes on the menu list and press ENTER.

3Select the desired operating mode by using the UP or DOWNarrow buttons and then pressing ENTER again.

4To cancel and return to the main Energy Menu, press the LEFT arrow button.

5To get more information on each mode, while the mode is highlighted, press the RIGHT arrow button to read a description.

6Use the UP or DOWNarrow buttons to scroll through the description screens.

7Use the LEFTarrow button to return to the Operating Mode menu list.

ºF and ºC Conversion

The water temperature display will default to ºF. To show the temperatures in ºC, press the ENERGY MENU button; then press ENTER. These settings will be remembered and returned following a power outage.

1Press the DOWN arrow button to go to “Choose ºF and ºC” and press ENTER.

2Press ENTER to change from ºF to ºC. The main screen will then be shown with the temperature in ºC.

3To cancel and return to the main Energy Menu, press the LEFT arrow button.

NOTE:To change back to ºF, repeat Steps 1 and 2.

Frequently Asked Questions

This menu item answers basic questions on cold air,

the filter, operating modes and noise. All of this information is covered in this Use and Care manual. If this manual is misplaced, you can refer to this section for answers.

1To access the FAQs, press the ENERGY MENUbutton and then press ENTER.

2Press the DOWN arrow pad to go to “FAQs” and then press ENTER.

There are four question categories:

ColdAir:

Q: Why is there cold air?

A:Hybrid, eHeat™ and High Demand modes save energy by using heat from the air to heat the water and thereby cooling the surrounding air. This gives sizable energy savings.

Q: How to stop cold air?

A:Press the STOP COLD AIRbutton on the keypad. This reduces the efficiency of the heater. Unit will change back to previous mode after number of days selected.

Filter:

Q: Why is there a filter?

A:In Hybrid and eHeat™ the unit moves air through the system. The filter protects the unit from dirt. A clean air filter improves efficiency.

Q: How to clean the filter?

A:Leave power on and remove filter from top of unit. Filter can be wiped clean or rinsed with warm water. A dirty filter will reduce water heater efficiency!

Modes:

Q: What is High Demand?

A:High Demand can be used when hot water usage is higher than normal. The unit will be less efficient but will heat water faster in response to long water draws. For all normal draws, the unit will still use efficient eHeat™.

Q: What is Stop Cold Air?

A:This mode will stop cold air temporarily but reduces the efficiency of the heater. The unit will change back to the previous mode after the number of days selected.

Q: What is Vacation Or Away?

A:If you are gone for an extended period, this mode lowers the water temperature to reduce energy used. Unit will switch to the previous mode one day before you get back.

Q: What is eHeat™?

A:eHeat™ is the most-efficient mode. It takes heat from the air to heat water, thereby cooling the surrounding air. Slower recovery but most-efficient mode.

Q: What is Hybrid?

A:The Hybrid mode combines benefits of eHeat™ with the speed and power of Standard Electric. This provides great performance with less energy. (Recommended mode.)

Q: What is Standard Electric?

A:Standard Electric mode uses only the resistance heaters to heat the water. This gives faster hot water recovery than Hybrid mode, but uses more energy.

Noise:

Q: Why is the unit noisy?

A:In the most energy-efficient modes, eHeat™, Hybrid and High Demand, the method used to heat the water generates some noise. Some amount of fan noise is normal.

3Use the UPor DOWNarrow buttons to select the category that pertains to your question and press
