WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to
minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent
property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for
two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by
turning on
all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any
electrical appliance
which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any
built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or
appliance during this process.
