A110-120 VAC circuit for this product must be protected with ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection, in compliance with the applicable electrical codes, when it is installed in locations such as in bathrooms or near sinks.

Low voltage and 110 VAC voltage cannot be shared within the same wall box.

WARNING! Risk of Shock or Explosion! DO NOT wire 110V to the valve or to the appliance wall switch. Incorrect wiring will damage controls.

D. Junction Box Installation

The junction box must be wired from the INSIDE of the appliance:

Determine which side of the appliance the junction box is located on.

Pull the electrical wires from outside the appliance through the knockout making sure to use a Romex connector to fasten the electrical wires to the unit.

Pull enough wire into the valve compartment to easily reach the junction box location.

Remove the screw attaching the junction box to the junction box bracket and set it aside.

Route the wire through the knockout in the junction box bracket.

Wire the junction box and reattach it to the bracket by inserting the tab in the slot and attaching with screw previously removed. Ensure that a Romex connector is used to attach the electrical wires to the junction box.

B. IntelliFire Ignition System Wiring
