5. If the manual-reset, high-temperature-limit switch should trip the circuit breaker; reset the switch by
depressing the reset button--use a pencil or other non-metallic object to depress the reset button. If the
high-temperature- limit switch should again trip the circuit breaker, contact an authorized service technician
or an authorized dealer.
6. Both the electrical and gas operations of the water heater may be used simultaneously to reduce recovery time
of heating water up to desired temperature.
For general maintenance of the water heater or specific information about select steps in operating the water
heater, please refer to the owner’s manual for this appliance contained in the Owner’s Information Package.

Warning
DO NOT STORE any combustible or flammable substances near or adjacent to the
water heater. Provide adequate space for ventilation and air circulation.
Water Heater Storage
If the motor home is to be stored during the winter months, the water
heater should be drained (Figure 4-13) to prevent damage caused by
freezing water contained in the water heater. To drain the water
heater, first turn “off” all electrical power, turn “off” the LP gas going
to the water heater, then turn “off” the water pump. Open both the
hot- and the cold-water faucets to drain the water lines and open the
drain on the water heater to drain the entire system.
When re-activating the water heater after the motor home is taken out
of storage, make sure that the entire water system, including the water
heater, has been filled with water and the lines have been purged of
any entrapped air before relighting the water heater. Failure to do so
may allow the water-heating element to be turned “on” before such is
immersed in water; thereby, causing the premature failure of the
heating element and voiding the warranty.
