FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or
explosion may result causing property damage,
personal injury, or loss of life.
A. This water heater is equipped with an ignition
device that automatically lights the pilot. Do
not try to light the pilot by hand.
B. BEFORE OPERATING, smell all around the wa-
ter heater area for gas. Be sure to smell next to
the floor because some gas is heavier than air
and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch. Do not use
any phone in your building.
•
Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s
instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the
fire department.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas
control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will
not push in or turn by hand, don’t try to
repair it. Call a qualified technician. Force or
attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
D. Do not use this water heater if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified
service technician to replace the unit.
