TO LIGHT YOUR APPLIANCE

WARNING:  If the pilot light is extinguished either
intentionally or otherwise, no attempt should be made
to relight the gas until at least 3 minutes have elapsed.

2.

OPERATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE

2.1 The Temperature Control Knob will, in its fully anti

clockwise position, control water to the highest
temperature. If a lower temperature is required, turn the
Temperature Control Knob clockwise to the desired
position.

3.

MAINTENANCE AND GAS TARIFF

It is recommended that a full maintenance check on your
appliance is made annually, and that a service contract is
taken out on completion of the guarantee period. Your
installer will give you details of arrangements for this
service. If your installer has difficulty in providing this 
information, please contact Johnson and Starley Service
Department, who will provide information of suitable
service companies.

4.

IF YOUR APPLIANCE IS NOT GIVING THE
SERVICE YOU NEED

4.1 Check that the pilot burner is lit. If not, follow the

ignition procedure. Should the appliance still fail to
function correctly,  contact your installer or local gas
service engineer.

4.2

New appliances:

  Service is supplied under guarantee by

the installer for the first 12 months, thereafter, should you
have difficulty in obtaining service, contact Johnson and
Starley Service Department, who will provide information
of suitable service companies.

4.3

For your appliance to operate safely and efficiently, it
is ESSENTIAL to OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

4.3.1 If the appliance has been installed in a cupboard,

DO NOT BLOCK 

any 

GRILLES

 provided in the

cupboard door(s).

4.3.2

DO NOT PLACE

 anything (clothing, linen, etc.)

in contact with the appliance or its flue pipe.

4.3.3

DO NOT USE 

the heater compartment for storage

or airing.

1.7 With the pilot burner lit, turn the ‘

TEMPERATURE

CONTROL KNOB

’ fully anticlockwise. The heater will

now operate automatically, controlled by the water
thermostat, providing that any switch (time clock or
manual control) controlling the system is 

ON

.

NOTE: If the Temperature Control Knob is removed for
any  reason,  ensure that it is correctly located when
refitting. DO NOT USE FORCE or damage will  occur.
Check the location of the control knob by turning it fully
clockwise; OFF shall be against the red marker on the
 gas control.

2.2

The pilot burner must be alight to allow the main
burner to operate under automatic control. Should it
become extinguished, a safety device will shut off all
gas to the appliance.

2.3

TO STOP THE APPLIANCE:

(a)

For short periods:

 Turn the temperature Control

Knob to the ‘

OFF’ 

position and where applicable

turn of the electrical supply to the water heater.
This will leave the pilot burner lit, but prevent the
main burner from lighting.

(b)

For longer periods:

 Press the ‘

OFF

’ button and

turn the gas supply, and where applicable the
electrical supply, to the water heater OFF.

NOTE:

 In the interest of economy, the hot water cylinder

and pipes should be efficiently lagged to minimise heat loss,
and water taps should not drip. The water must be drained
out of the appliance if it is to be shut off for long periods,
and frost damage is a possibility.

NOTE: When lighting the pilot, ensure that the ‘OFF’
button is not touched. Partial depression of the ‘OFF’
button may operate the safety mechanism and prevent
the main burner from lighting.

IF YOU SMELL GAS:     

(i)  TURN OFF the gas supply

(iii) DO NOT operate any electrical switches

       (ii)  VENTILATE the area

(iv) CONTACT your installer or local gas service engineer
