Water Heater Operation:
Turn on interior house power.
120 Volt AC is supplied from shore
power (preferred) or the generator.
House batteries must be charged.
Open the primary LP-Gas valve on the
LP-Gas tank.
NOTE:
DO NOT operate the water heater
without water. Damage to the
thermostats and electric heating element
can occur.
Heating Water with 120 Volt AC:
Have either shore
power (preferred)
or the generator
supplying AC voltage.
Press the water heater
switch. The indicator
lamp will glow steady.
NOTE:
It is not fuel efficient
to use the generator to
operate the water heater
on 120 Volt AC.
Heating Water with LP-Gas:
Make sure the LP-Gas is turned on.
Press the LP-Gas water heater switch. The
indicator lamp will glow steady. A
fl ashing
lamp will indicate lockout. Press the switch
twice to reset the ignition cycle.
NOTE:
LP-Gas and 120 Volt AC functions can
be on at the same time. This will speed
up the process of heating water for large
volume use.

CAUTION:
It is recommended not to operate the
water heater on LP-Gas while the
motorhome is in transit. Be sure the
water heater is off before refueling.
NOTE:
Due to potential air in the LP-Gas lines,
the water heater will attempt three
ignition cycles. If the burner does not
light after the third attempt, the LP-Gas
function will “lock-out.” Reasons for
lockout may be air in the gas system or
burner tube obstructions caused by an
insect or spider web.
High-Temperature Thermostat:
Separate thermostats are used for LP-Gas
and AC electric. If a thermostat fails, a high-
temperature safety limit switch will open.
CAUTION:
If the high-temperature safety limit
should open, discontinue using the water
heater. Have the water heater inspected
by a qualified technician to determine
the cause of the over temperature
condition.
Water Heater Bypass Valve:
The bypass valve is located
at the back of the water
heater. Turning the valve to
the bypass position prevents
water from entering the
water heater. Turn the valve
to the bypass position when
winterizing. For normal
operation, turn bypass valve
to normal
fl ow.
Pressure & Temperature Relief Valve:
The water heater is equipped with a Pressure
& Temperature (P & T) relief safety valve.
The P & T valve is designed to open if water
temperature in the tank exceeds 210° F (98.8°
C) or internal pressure exceeds 150 psi. If water
begins to weep from the valve, it may be due
to a loss of the air pocket in the tank and not
a defective valve. See re-establishing the air
pocket.
Re-establishing the Air Pocket:
Water may weep from the P & T valve under
normal operation. This is not necessarily a faulty
valve but more likely caused by lack of an air
pocket and water expansion. The water heater
tank is designed with an internal air pocket.
Eventually, the cyclic expansion of water will
absorb the air pocket. When weeping from the
valve occurs, the air pocket will need to be
re-established utilizing the following procedure.
If the valve continues to weep after establishing
the air pocket, contact a quali
fi ed service center
to evaluate the valve.
