INSTALLATION

WARNING

If your appliance is uses line current, it is equipped with an oil proof, electrical supply cord with a three-prong safety plug. This is to protect operators from electrical shock hazard in the event of an equipment malfunction. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding (third) prong from this plug; it should be plugged into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle.

1.6. VENTILATION AND FIRE SAFETY SYSTEMS

Your new appliance must have proper ventilation to function safely and properly. Exhaust gas temperatures can reach as high as 1100 °F (593 °C). Therefore, it is very important to install a fire safety system. Your ventilation system should be designed to allow for easy cleaning. Frequent cleaning and proper maintenance of the ventilation system and the appliance will reduce the chances of fire. Ventilation and fire safety systems must comply to local and national codes. Refer to ANSI

83.11for a list of reference documents that will provide guidance on ventilation and fire safety systems. For installations in U.S. and Canada, additional information can be obtained from CSA International, 8501 East Pleasant Valley Road, Cleveland, OH, 44131 or visit their website at www.csa-international.org.

It is essential that the appliance be operated only when adequate ventilation is provided. Your ventilation hood should be properly maintained. A qualified installation professional should ensure that the hood is operating properly in conjunction with the appliance. Inadequate ventilation may not properly evacuate appliance all emissions. Excessive or unbalanced ventilation may cause drafts, which could interfere with proper operation of the pilot and burners. Leave at least 18 inches (45.72cm) of open space between the flue of the appliance and the intake of the exhaust hood.

WARNING

Ensure that your ventilation system does not cause a down draft at the appliance’s flue opening. A down draft will not allow the appliance to exhaust properly and will cause overheating, which may cause permanent damage. Damage caused by down drafts will not be covered by the warranty. NEVER allow anything to obstruct the flow of combustibles or ventilation exiting the appliance. NEVER place anything on top of the flue area, or block the flue in any way. Never place a grease condensating drip pan over the flue opening.

WARNING

NEVER connect the ventilation blower or hood directly to the flue of this appliance. The resulting increased flow of air through the combustion system will cause improper operation, poor temperature recovery, poor ignition and could extinguish the pilot.

1.7. INSPECTION

Before you begin filling and adjusting the appliance, perform the following visual checks:

After the appliance is in its permanent location, check the levelness. Any additional leveling that is necessary can be performed as previously described.

Ensure that the probe and high temperature limit is in place and secure. Check the high limit bulb mounting screws to ensure that they are tight.

Review the installation portion of this manual and ensure that all steps have been followed and executed properly.

1) Probe

2) High Temperature Limit
