Operating the water heater

Water Temperature Setting

Maximum water temperatures occur just

after the burner has shut off. To determine

the water temperature, turn on a hot water

faucet and place a thermometer in the

water stream.

The reference mark p on the rim of the

temperature dial, represents an approximate

water temperature of 120°F(49° C).

The reference mark

A

represents an

approximate water temperature of 130°F

(54° C).

Each reference mark above or below these

points indicates an approximate change of

10°F.

To adjust the temperature, turn the

temperature dial to an initial setting of

120°F.

A condition known as “stacking” or

“layering” can occur when a series of short

and frequent hot water draws are taken.

The hottest temperature water will be at the

top of the tank, closest to the outlet pipe

delivering hot water to the home.

Stacking can cause this top layer of water

to be hotter than the water toward the

bottom of the tank near the gas control

(thermostat).

Therefore, always remember to test the

water temperature with your hand before

use and remember that hotter water

increases the risk of scald injury.

Also, always supervise young children or

others who are incapacitated.

The gas control (thermostat) is constructed

with a built in safety shut-off device

designed to shut off the gas supply to the

burner if the pilot flame is extinguished for

any reason.

The gas control (thermostat) is also

equipped with a single use gas shut off

device that will shut off the gas supply

to the burner if the water heater exceeds

normal operating temperatures. Refer to the

(Before You Call For Service) section of

this manual, or contact your dealer.

!

WARNING: Should overheating occur

or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off

the manual gas control valve to the

appliance.

If the water heater has been subjected to

fire, flood or physical damage, turn off

the manual gas (shut-off) valve, and do

not operate the water heater again until it

has been checked by a qualified service

technician.

NOTICE: DO NOT use this appliance

if any part has been under water.

Immediately call a qualified installer or

service agency to replace a flooded water

heater. Do Not attempt to repair the

unit! It must be replaced.
