CORRECTIVE ACTION

Turn Gas Control Valve/Thermostat knob to OFF. Wait 10 minutes, then attempt to relight Pilot by following the lighting instructions on the water heater's label. Until the Thermopite reaches its normal operating temperature, the Status Light wilt not blink, even if the Pilot is tit. It may take up to 90 seconds of continuous Pilot operation before the Thermopite reaches normal operating temperature and the Status Light starts to blink.

If the Status Light does not blink after three lighting attempts, check to make sure unit is getting gas.

Remove the outer door. Press reset button. Replace outer door. Turn Gas Control Valve/Thermostat

knob to OFF. Wait 10 minutes, then attempt to light Pilot by following the lighting instructions on the water heater's label. Look through the sight glass for the Pilot flame. If Pilot is not visible, the spark igniter or gas supply to the Pilot should be checked.

If the Pilot is visible and the Status Light does not blink after 90 seconds of continuous Pilot operation, the Pilot flame may not be heating the Thermopile sufficiently (weak Pilot) or the Thermopite may be defective, or wiring connectors may be loose.

Replace outer door and verify proper operation after servicing

NOTE: If the water heater has been operating but has stopped and will not re-light, check the flame-arrestor for signs of high temperature (blue or black) discoloration indicating a flammable vapor incident. If you suspect a flammable vapor incident has occurred, do not use this appliance. Immediately call a qualified technician to inspect the appliance. Water heaters subjected to a flammable vapors ignition wilt require replacement of the entire water heater. NOTE: Check the gas control valve/ thermostat and thermal switch for any loose wiring connections, correct immediately.

Turn Gas Control Valve/Thermostat knob to OFF. Wait 10 minutes for the Thermopite to cool, then attempt to relight Pilot by following the lighting instructions on the water heater's label. NOTE: This gas control valve/thermostat has built-in circuitry that requires waiting 10 minutes between lighting attempts. Until the Thermopile reaches its normal operating temperature, the Status Light wilt not blink, even if the Pilot is tit. It may take up to 90 seconds of continuous Pilot operation before the Thermopite reaches normal operating temperature and the Status Light starts to blink.

No corrective action necessary.

Turn Gas Control Valve/Thermostat knob to OFF. The Thermopite is probably defective, but loose wiring connections or a weak Pilot flame can also cause this symptom.
