Giant Manual
Before operating, smell all around the appliance
area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor
because some gas is heavier than air and will settle
on the floor.
Keep the area around the appliance clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
Always check the water temperature before
entering a shower or bath.
Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a licensed
professional to inspect the appliance and to replace
any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to
the appliance.
Do not adjust the DIP switch unless specifically
instructed to do so.
Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug
with this appliance.
Any alteration to the appliance or its controls can
be dangerous and will void the warranty.
If you install this water heater in an area that is known
to have hard water or that causes scale build-up the
water must be treated and/or the heat exchanger
flushed regularly. Giant provides a “Scale Control
System” that offers superior lime scale prevention and
corrosion control by feeding a blend of control
compounds into the water supply. Damage and repair
due to scale in the heat exchanger is not c
o
vered by
warranty.
Keep the air intake location free of chemicals such as
chlorine or bleach that produce fumes. These fumes
can damage components and reduce the life of your
appliance. Damage and repair due to corrosive
compounds in the air is not covered by warranty.
