Only
For normal shut-down, set the thermostat below
room temperature. When servicing or performing
maintenance, follow steps 1 - 5.
1. Close the fuel supply valve.
2. Allow the heater to burn off any fuel gas remaining
in the gas supply line.
3. Set the thermostat to “Off” or “No Heat”.
4. Position selector switch to O (off).
5. Disconnect the heater from its gas and electrical
supplies.
1. This feature allows the heater to operate on either
propane or natural gas without changing out the
burner ori
fi ce. The gas selector valve is located
between the gas control valve and the burner. Gas
selection is made by sliding the locking sleeve (if
provided) up and repositioning the valve’s handle.
THIS IS NOT A MANUAL GAS SHUT OFF VALVE.
2. Refer to Figs. 19 and 20. The valve handle must
be properly positioned for the speci fi c gas being
used (Premier 170 DF shown. Same handle posi-
tions for Premier 80 DF).

Do not operate the heater with the selector valve
handle set between either postion, otherwise im-
proper operation will occur.
