stand, and follow all wiring instructions supplied with the controls.

8. Do not disconnect the power supply when the water heater is in normal operation.

NOTE

: For additional electrical protection, the use of a whole house surge protector is recommended. Damage caused by power surges is not 

covered by the warranty.

NOTICE

If the water heater display does not come ON, first check the plug. Also check the electrical panel circuit breaker and reset it if necessary. If the 

circuit breaker trips again, do not reset. Disconnect the plug and have a qualified technician diagnose the problem.

 B. DIP SWITCHES

There is one DIP switch. DIP switches 6 and 7 need to be set to OFF for the water heater to operate normally.
