INSTALLATION
6 L20-290 Rev 3 (5/12)
INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS
It is necessary to test the operation of your appliance after your appliance has been properly installed as
described in the installation section of this manual. It will most likely need to be adjusted to ensure that it will
perform as designed. These adjustments must be performed by a qualified person. To perform these
adjustments the following tools will be needed:
• Manometer
• Digital Thermometer (Temperature Probe)
• DC Millivolt Meter
• DC Milliameter
Before you begin filling and adjusting the appliance, perform the
following visual checks:
a.
After the appliance is in its permanent location,
check the levelness. Any additional leveling that is
necessary can be performed as previously
described.
b.
Check the temperature probe and high limit bulb (in
the tank) to ensure that the mounting screws are
tight.
c.
Review the installation portion of this manual and
ensure that all steps have been followed and
executed properly.

CAUTION
Before proceeding any further, fill the tank with WATER. Water is used for the installation
adjustments because the temperature will never exceed 212°F (100°C), thereby allowing
plenty of adjustment time. Never let the water level go below the MIN LEVEL mark stamped
on the tank.
WARNING
During operation there is an open flame inside this appliance. The unit may get hot
enough to set near by materials on fire. Keep the area around the appliance free from
combustibles.
Lighting Instructions
For manual pilots, refer to the following instructions.
WARNING
If pilot extinguishes, wait 5 minutes before attempting to relight the pilot to allow any built
up gas to dissipate.
a.
Open gas supply valves to the appliance.
b.
Turn the thermostat control knob counterclockwise to the OFF position.
c.
Turn the gas valve knob to the PILOT position and push in on the knob.
Hold the knob in for approximately one minute to purge the air out of the
line. Hold a flame to the pilot until the pilot ignites; this may take a little
while the first time you light the pilot because of the air in the lines. Once
lit, hold the knob in for approximately one minute and then release.
