Thermostat Adjustment
The thermostat dial is adjusted to its lowest setting
when shipped from the
factory. When adjusting the thermostat, it should be remembered that lower
temperature settings are more energy efficient. To adjust the thermostat, turn
the dial clockwise until the minimum acceptable temperature is set. It is
suggested that the starting point setting not exceed the 120°F
(49°C)
or “HOT”
setting on the thermostat.
NOTE:
Taupe / Silver faceplate is approximately 160ºF maximum set point;
Dark (Battleship) Grey faceplate is approximately 180ºF maximum set point.

DANGER
Hotter water increases the risk of scald injury. Scalding may occur
within five (5) seconds at a temperature setting of 140°F
(60°C)
. To
protect against hot water injury, install an ASSE approved mixing valve
in the water system. This valve will reduce point of discharge water
temperatures by mixing cold and hot water in branch water lines. A
licensed plumbing professional or local plumbing authority should be
consulted.
Note:
This water heater is equipped with an energy cut out device to
prevent overheating. Should overheating occur, turn off the electrical
supply to the water heater and contact a qualified service technician.
