3C. Lighting and Shutdown
3C-1. Lighting the Heater
Full lighting and shutdown instructions can also
be found attached to the wall inside the control
compartment door.
1. Remove the service door on the front of the
heater.
2. Press down and release the red button
marked “O” on the gas control valve (see
Figure 17).
3. Turn the rocker switch to OFF and turn the
temperature control to its lowest setting.
4. Make sure that the manual gas cock is
open.
5. Push in the white button on the gas control
and keep it fully depressed (see Figure 17).
WARNING
Natural Gas Models: To avoid possible
injury, fire and explosion, read and follow
these precautions and all instructions on this
heater before lighting the pilot. If you smell
gas, follow these rules:
1. DO NOT light matches. DO NOT turn
electric lights or switches on or off in area.
DO NOT use an electric fan to remove the
gas from area.
2. Shut off gas at gas service cock.
3. Telephone gas company for instructions.
Give your name, address and phone
number.
DO NOT attempt repairs on the gas control or
heater. Tampering is dangerous and voids all
warranties.
When lighting or relighting the pilot, always
turn the temperature control to its lowest setting. Turn
the rocker switch to OFF.
With any new pool or spa installation, run the
filter pump with the heater off long enough to com-
pletely clean the water. This removes any installation
residue from the water. Clean the filter at the end of
this operation before starting the heater. When raising
the temperature of a cold pool, remove all time clock
settings. This lets the filter system and heater operate
continuously until the water reaches the temperature
setting on the thermostat. When that happens, the
heater will automatically shut off, but the filter pump
will keep running.
3B. Temperature Control
The temperature control (see Figure 16) is
calibrated at the factory. It covers a range from
approximately 21 to 40°C. Always use an accurate
pool thermometer to test the pool water temperature.
