APPLIANCES & INTERIOR FEATURES

5. Turn on LP gas main tank valve.
6. Turn on the water heater switch on the moni-

tor panel. You may hear a clicking noise as 
the ignition element begins working. If the 
burner does not light on first try, the system 
will stop trying to light burner and go to 
lockout mode.

7. If lockout happens before main burner lights, 

turn switch OFF, wait five seconds and turn 
switch back on. This will restart the ignition 
cycle. The first start-up of the water heater 
after it has not been used for a long time may 
require several ignition cycles  before all the 
air is purged from the gas lines and gas 
begins to flow.
If the burner will not come on, check the fol-
lowing items before calling for service.
1. Is the switch turned on?
2. Dos the LP tank have gas in it or is main 

tank valve turned on?

3. Is the ECO Reset button tripped? (See 

Atwood Water Heater Operation        
Manual

 in your Owners InfoCase.)

To Turn Water Heater Off

1. Turn switch on  monitor panel to Off posi-

tion.

2. Turn electric water heater switch off.
3. Turn off LP gas supply (if not to be used for 

extended period).

4. Drain water heater tank if the coach is to be 

stored or water heater will be Off during 
freezing temperatures. (See Draining and 
Storage Instructions in 

Atwood Water Heater

 in your Owners InfoCase.

Pressure-Temperature (P-T) Relief Valve

On occasion, water may be seen seeping from 

the water heater pressure-temperature relief 
valve. This is no cause for repair or replacement 
of the valve.

The water heater tank is designed so that there 

is normally an air pocket at the top of the tank that 
acts as a pressure buffer. In time, however, heat-
ed water may expand and fill this air pocket, 
causing a slight increase in water pressure. This 
may cause the P-T valve to “weep” until the air 
pocket is manually replaced.

OPERATE THIS VALVE ONLY WHEN 

THE WATER HEATER AND COOLING SYS-
TEM ARE COLD!
