VALVE NOT SHOWN)

The temperature-pressure relief valve must be manually operated at least once a year. Caution should be taken to ensure that (1) no one is in front of or around the outlet of the temperature-pressure relief valve discharge line, and (2) the water manually discharged will not cause any bodily injury or property damage because the water may be extremely hot.

If after manually operating the valve, it fails to completely reset and continues to release water, immediately close the cold water inlet to the water heater, follow the draining instructions,

and replace the temperature-pressure relief valve with a new one.

Water Damage Hazard

•Temperature-pressure relief valve discharge pipe must terminate at adequate drain.

The Discharge Pipe:

•Shall not be smaller in size than the outlet pipe size of the valve, or have any reducing couplings or other restrictions.

•Shall not be plugged or blocked.

•Shall be of material listed for hot water distribution.

•Shall be installed so as to allow complete drainage of both the temperature-pressure relief valve, and the discharge pipe.

•Shall terminate at an adequate drain.

•Shall not have any valve between the relief valve and tank.

Water temperature over 125°F (52°C) can cause severe burns

instantly resulting in severe injury ordeath.

Children, the elderly, and the physically or mentally disabled are at highest riskfor scald injury.

Feel water before bathing or showering.

Temperature limiting valves are available.

Read instruction manual for safe temperature setting.

Filling the Water Heater

Property Damage Hazard

• Avoid water heater damage.

•Fili tank with water before operating.

Never use this water heater unless it is completely full of water. To prevent damage to the tank, the tank must be filled with water. Water must flow from the hot water faucet before turning "ON" gas to the water heater.

To fill the water heater with water:

•Close the water heater drain valve by turning the handle to the right (clockwise). The drain valve is on the lower front of the water heater.

•Open the cold water supply valve to the water heater.

NOTE: The cold water supply valve must be left open when the water heater is in use.

To insure complete filling of the tank, allow air to exit by opening the nearest hot water faucet. Allow water to run until a constant flow is obtained. This will let air out of the water heater and the piping.

Check all water piping and connections for leaks. Repair as needed.

Venting

VENT DAMPERS - Any vent damper, whether it is operated thermally or otherwise must be removed if its use inhibits proper drafting of the water heater.

Thermally Operated Vent Dampers: Gas-fired water heaters having thermal efficiency in excess of 80% may produce a relatively low flue gas temperature. Such temperatures may not be high enough to properly open thermally operated vent dampers. This would cause spillage of the flue gases and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.

Vent dampers must bear evidence of certification as complying with the current edition of the American National Standard

ANSI Z21.68 (ANSI Z21.66 & 67, respectively, cover electrically
