IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be

followed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, electric

shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury,

or loss of life.

Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in

a water heater that has not been used for two weeks or

more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.

If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent

the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water

faucets and allow them to run for several minutes. Do this before

using any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water

system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas

to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open

flame or appliance during this process.
