▪ 1. BEFORE OPERATION
1. Check the Gas Type (NG/LP)
When operating the water heater for the first time, ensure the connected gas type matches that of the gas type of the water heater. Check
whether the gas supplied is NG or LP. The water heater gas type is indicated on the rating plate on the side of the water heater.
2. Check the Power (120V 60Hz)
Ensure the water heater is connected to a properly rated power supply.
3. Check the Cold Water Inlet Valve
Ensure the cold water inlet valve is open when operating the water heater. The water heater will not operate if there is insufficient water
supply.
4. Check the Gas Valve
Ensure the manual shut-off gas valve is open. The water heater will not operate unless it is supplied with gas.
5. Check the Area around the Water heater
Remove any combustible or flammable materials from the area around the water heater and do not hang wet laundry from the exhaust vent
pipe.
WARNING
Attempting to operate this water heater on a gas supply other than specified on the rating plate will result in improper water heater operation, and
could result in property damage, personal injury, or death.
Do not operate the water heater if its combustion air intake is located in or near one of the areas or in the vicinity of products listed in Table 1.
These areas will always contain hazardous contaminates that can form strong acids while passing through the burner and vent system. These
acids will corrode the water heater’s heat exchanger, burner components and vent system, resulting in flue gas spillage and/or water leakage,
possible substantial property damage, severe personal injury, or death. If the water heater combustion air intake is located in any area likely to
cause or contain contamination, or if products which would contaminate the air cannot be removed, the intake must be re-piped and terminated
to another location.
DO NOT re-pipe ventilation system on your own. Call a qualified service provider for assistance.
DANGER
PRODUCTS TO AVOID AREAS LIKELY TO HAVE CONTAMINANTS
Spray cans containing fluorocarbons Dry cleaning/laundry areas and establishments
Permanent wave solutions Swimming pools
Chlorinated waxes/cleaners Metal fabrication plants
Chlorine-based swimming pool chemicals Beauty shops
Calcium chloride used for thawing Refrigeration repair shops
Sodium chloride used for water softening Photo processing plants
Refrigerant leaks Auto body shops
Paint or varnish removers Plastic manufacturing plants
Hydrochloric or Muriatic acid Furniture refinishing areas and establishments
Cements and glues New building construction
Antistatic fabric softeners used in clothes dryers Remodeling areas
Chlorine-type bleaches, laundry detergents, and cleaning solvents Garages and workshops

WARNING
After any repair of the gas pipeline or replacement of the gas regulator, call a qualified
service technician to observe the installation and replacement before restoring power
to the water heater. Failure to do so could result in a fire or explosion, substantial
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
▪ 2. DURING OPERTAION
1. Check for Gas Leaks
Frequently check the gas pipe and connections for leaks with a soapy solution. If
air bubbles appear during the test, gas is leaking out. Close the gas supply valve
and call your gas supplier for inspection.
2. Check for Proper Ventilation
Ensure there is sufficient ventilation while operating the water heater. Improper
ventilation could result in premature water heater failure. Such failures ARE NOT
covered by water heater warranty.
