ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER

SAFETY

For your safety do not operate this water heater before reading this instruction booklet.

This water heater is supplied with a thermostat, hi-limit thermostat and a pressure relief valve. These devices must not be tampered with or removed. The water heater must not be operated unless each of these devices is fitted and is in working order.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For assistance or additional information consult your Raypak distributor, qualified installer, or Rheem® Service agent.

The warranty can become void if relief valves or other safety devices are tampered with or if the installation is not in accordance with these instructions.

•DO NOT store flammable or combustible materials near the water heater. Flammable liquids (such as petrol), newspapers and similar articles must be kept well away from the water heater and the draught diverter or flue terminal.

•DO NOT use aerosols, stain removers and household chemicals near the water heater whilst it is working. Gases from some aerosol sprays, stain removers and household chemicals become corrosive when drawn into a flame.

•DO NOT store swimming pool chemicals, household cleaners, etc., near the water heater.

•DO NOT place anything on top of the water heater or in contact with the flue terminal. Ensure the flue terminal is not obstructed in any way at any time.

•DO NOT use Propane / Butane gas mixtures in a Propane model. A Propane model is designed to operate on Propane only. The use of Propane / Butane mixture, such as automotive LPG fuel, in a Propane model is unsafe and can cause damage to the water heater.

•DO NOT operate with panels, covers or guards removed from the water heater.

•DO NOT enclose this water heater (applies to external installations only).

If the power supply cord or electrical conduit to the water heater is damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised person in order to avoid a hazard. The power supply cord and plug must be replaced with a genuine replacement part available from Rheem. Phone your nearest Rheem Service Department or Accredited service Agent to arrange for an inspection.

Do not use the water heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call Rheem Service or Accredited service Agent to arrange for an inspection.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS?

•DO NOT try to light any gas appliance.

•DO NOT touch any electrical switch.

•TURN OFF the gas supply at the gas meter immediately, call your gas supplier or licensed gasfitter. NOTE: Some gases are heavier than air and it may be necessary to check for gas leaks at floor level.

TO TURN OFF THE WATER HEATER

If it is necessary to turn off the water heater:

•Switch off the electrical supply at the power outlet to the water heater

NOTE: If the water heater is correctly installed, this will also shut down the circulating pump.
