WARNING

 

There are a number of live tests that are required when fault finding this product.  Extreme care should be used at 
all times to avoid contact with energized components inside the water heater.  Before checking for resistance 
readings disconnect the power source to the unit and isolate the item from the circuit (unplug it). 

If any of the original wire as supplied with the appliance must 
be replaced, it must be replaced with type 18 AWG wire or its 
equivalent. 

Label all wires prior to disconnection when 
servicing controls.  Wiring errors can cause 
improper and dangerous operation. 

     

CAUTION
