START UP PROCEDURES — FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING

Filling the Booster Piping

Fill the booster heater with water, purging all air. Make sure water is flowing through the booster to the dishwasher's fill or final rinse before lighting the booster heater by either leaving the main power switch off on Stand Alone units or leaving the manual gas valve closed on Dishwasher Activated units.

Checking the Circulator

•Before lighting the heater, make sure the water pump is operating properly.

•With the gas valve in the off position, activate the power switch. If no power switch is present, activate the dishwasher making a demand for hot rinse water.

•The pump should start immediately. Allow the circulator to pump water through the system.

Lighting the Heater

CAUTION: Liquefied petroleum gas is heavier than air and sinks to the ground. Exercise extreme care in lighting the heater in confined areas.

WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR LOSS OF LIFE.

This heater DOES NOT have a pilot. It is equipped with a hot surface ignition device which automatically lights the burner. DO NOT attempt to light the burner by hand.

Before operating, smell all around the heater area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gases are heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

•Do not try to light any appliance.

•Do not touch any electric switch.

•Do not use any phone in your building.

•Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

•If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

Use only your hand to push in, move, or turn the gas control knob or lever. Never use tools. If the knob or lever will not push in, move, or turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

Do not use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater and replace any part of the control system and any gas control that has been under water.
