Failure to adhere to the guidelines on this page can result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

When servicing boiler —

•To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before performing maintenance.

•To avoid severe burns, allow boiler to cool before performing maintenance.

Boiler operation —

•Do not block flow of combustion or ventilation air to boiler.

•Should overheating occur or gas supply fail to shut off, do not turn off or disconnect electrical supply to pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance.

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

Boiler water —

•DO NOT use petroleum-basedcleaning or sealing compounds in boiler system. Water seal deterioration will occur, causing leakage between sections. This can result in substantial property damage.

•DO NOT use "homemade cures" or "boiler patent medicines". Serious damage to boiler, personnel and/or property may result.

•Continual fresh makeup water will reduce boiler life. Mineral build-up in sections reduces heat transfer, overheats cast iron, and causes section failure. Addition of oxygen and other gases can cause internal corrosion. Leaks in boiler or piping must be repaired at once to prevent makeup water.

•Do not add cold water to hot boiler. Thermal shock can cause sections to crack.
