Part 6 - Operation
The water heater must be full of water before the power is turned on. The heater will be damaged if energized
for even a short time while dry. Failures due to “dry-fi ring” ARE NOT covered by warranty.
A. Starting and Testing
• Supply power to the water heater by turning on the circuit breaker.
• Turn the control knob in a clockwise direction.
• The LED on the control knob will turn on until the water temperature has reached the thermostat
temperature setting. The light will come back on any time the water temperature inside the tank drops
below the thermostat setting.
B. Thermostat Adjustment
The temperature of the hot water is adjusted by rotating the
knob located on the front cover.
• Turn the knob clockwise to increase temperature.
• Turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease
temperature.
• After adjusting the water temperature, allow the water
heater enough time to heat the water to temperature.
Do not attempt to repair this water heater yourself. Call a qualifi ed service technician for assistance. Always
turn off the power supply to the heater prior to servicing or draining the heater. Failure to do so could result in
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Part 7 - Maintenance
For most of these maintenance operations, the water will have to be drained from the heater. For all of these
operations, the power should be turned off at the circuit breaker and the front cover removed.
