Vacation Mode
This feature is recommended when you will be away
from the home for an extended period of time and hot
water is not needed. In this mode, the unit will reduce the
water temperature setting to 50ºF (10°C) and will use the
most efficient heating mode to conserve energy while the
heater is sitting idle. The unit will automatically resume
heating one day before your return, so that hot water will
be available.
To set Vacation Mode:
1. Select Vacation by pressing the MODE button.
2. Input the total number of days you will be gone
by pressing the +/- select button. The default is 7
days, maximum 199, or remain in Vacation Mode
indefinitely by selecting “---”.
3. Press Enter to confirm selection
For example, if you will be gone 14 days, set Vacation
mode for 14 days using the steps above. The
temperature setting will automatically reduce to 50
0
F
(10
0
C) for 13 days. At the end of the 13th day, unit will
return to normal operating mode and temperature setting
will reset to ensure hot water is available upon your
return.
When activated this feature stores water at higher
temperatures. As hot stored water leaves the tank, cold
water is mixed in to maintain the desired set point. This
mixing allows more usable hot water to be available.
The water heater defaults to Normal hot water Capacity
setting, which is used to calculate annual operating cost,
(and a 125F outlet water setting).
To change tank Capacity setting:.
1. Press the “Capacity” button until High, X-High or
Normal text is illuminated.
2. Confirm selection by pressing “Enter” key.
Capacity Options
(based on 120°F default outlet water
temperature setting and 58°F inlet water temperature):
Normal
: No increase of hot water capacity from outlet
water setting
High
