Install the water heater in a location where it is free from ob-
stacles around the equipment and air is not stagnant in order to
prevent incomplete combustion.

Do not install the water heater near staircases or emergency exit.

Avoid places where fires are common, such as those where
gasoline, benzene and adhesives are handled, or places in
which corrosive gases (ammonia, chlorine, sulfur, ethylene
compounds, acids) are present.

Installation in an improper location may cause failures or
fires.

Install the exhaust vent so that obstacles will not be placed
around the end of the pipe, and exhaust gas will not stagnate.

Do not install the water heater where the exhaust gas blows on
outer walls or material not resistant to heat. Also consider the
surrounding trees and animals.

The heat and moisture from the water heater may cause
discoloration of walls and resinous materials, or corrosion of
aluminum materials.

Avoid installation above gas ranges or stoves.

Avoid installation between the kitchen fan and stove. If oily
fumes or a large amount of steam occur in the installation
location, take measures to prevent the fumes and steam from
entering in the equipment.

Avoid installation in dusty places where sand or dust accumu-
late.
These environments will decrease the performance of the fan,
causing incomplete combustion.

Determine a location of installation where the flow of exhaust
gas is not affected by the outlet of the fan or range hood.

Take care that noise and exhaust gas will not affect neighbors.

Make sure that the location allows installation of the exhaust
vent as specified.

Avoid installation at places where special chemical agents (e.g.,
hair spray or spray detergent) are used.

This may cause incomplete connections or failures.

Locate the appliance in an area where leakage from the unit or connections will not
result in damage to the area adjacent to the appliance or to the lower floors of the
structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a
suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the appliance. The pan
must not restrict combustion air flow.

Check the gas

Check that the kind of gas indicated on the label, and that used
for the equipment are compatible.

Check the power

The power supply is 120V AC, and 60Hz.
Using a different voltage may cause a
fire or electric shock.

Do not use equipment for purposes other than those specified

Use the gas water heater only for hot water supply or showers,
otherwise it may cause unexpected accidents or failure of the
equipment.

Check Ground water and well water

Check the quality of water thoroughly if it is necessary to use ground water or well water. The
equipment may corrode depending on the quality.

Do not connect to solar water heaters

Do not connect the water heater to solar water heaters. When the water temperature rises in
summer, it becomes uncontrollable. If water is supplied at extremely high temperature, it may
cause burns or failure of the equipment.

* If desired use a water mixing valve to keep the temperature down and present burns.

Replacement

* Check the fixing brackets and exhaust vent yearly to make sure they do not to be replaced. Do

not install it outside or in a bathroom or other occupied room Installation in an improper location
may cause failures or fire.
