DANGER: 

Indicates  the  presence  of  immediate  hazards  which  will  cause  severe

personal injury, death or substantial property damage if ignored.

WARNING:

Indicates  the  presence  of  hazards  or  unsafe  practices  which  could  cause

severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage if ignored.

CAUTION: 

Indicates  the  presence  of  hazards  or  unsafe  practices  which  could  cause

minor personal injury or product or property damage if ignored.

NOTE: 

Indicates special instructions on installation, operation, or maintenance which

are important but not related to personal injury hazards.

DANGER:

Make sure the gas on which the heater

will operate is the same type as that specified on the

heater rating plate.

WARNING:

Should  overheating  occur  or  the  gas

supply valve fail to shut, do not turn off or disconnect

the electrical supply to the heater. Instead, shut off

the gas supply at a location external to the heater.

WARNING:

Do not use this heater if any part has

been  under  water.  Immediately  call  a  qualified

service  technician  to  inspect  the  heater  and  to

replace any part of the control system and any gas

control which has been under water.

WARNING:

To minimize the possibility of improper

operation, serious personal injury, fire, or damage to

the heater:

Always keep the area around the heater free of

combustible  materials,  gasoline,  and  other

flammable liquids and vapors.

Heater  should  never  be  covered  or  have  any

blockage to the flow of fresh air to the heater.

WARNING  -  CALIFORNIA  PROPOSITION

65: 

This product contains chemicals known to the

State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or

other reproductive harm.

WARNING:

Risk of electrical shock. More than one

disconnect  switch  may  be  required  to  de-energize

the equipment before servicing.

CAUTION:

This  heater  requires  forced  water

circulation  when  the  burner  is  operating.  See

minimum and maximum flow rates. Severe damage

will  occur  if  the  heater  is  operated  without  proper

water flow circulation.

CAUTION: 

Operation  of  this  heater  in  low

temperature  systems  requires  special  piping.

Harmful internal condensation will occur if the inlet

water temperature does not exceed 120°F. Warranty

claims will be denied when condensation occurs.

CAUTION: 

If  this  heater  is  to  be  installed  above

radiation level, it must be provided with a low water

cut-off device at the time of heater installation.

CAUTION: 

If  this  heater  is  to  be  installed  in  a

negative or positive pressure equipment room, there

are special installation requirements. Consult factory

for details.

WARNINGS

Pay Attention to These Terms

WARNING:

UL recognized fuel gas detectors are

recommended  in  all  enclosed  propane  and  natural

gas applications wherein there is a potential for an

explosive mixture of fuel gas to accumulate and their

installation  should  be  in  accordance  with  the

detector  manufacturer's  recommendations  and/or

local laws, rules, regulations, or customs.

WARNING:

Both natural gas and propane have an

odorant added to aid in detecting a gas leak. Some

people  may  not  physically  be  able  to  smell  or

recognize  this  odorant.  If  you  are  unsure  or

unfamiliar with the smell of natural gas or propane,

ask your local gas supplier. Other conditions, such

as  "odorant  fade,"  which  causes  the  odorant  to

diminish in intensity, can also hide, camouflage, or

otherwise make detecting a gas leak by smell more

difficult.
