Cautions For Safety - Westinghouse HT351G12 Instruction Manual

(2) Turn the water inlet tap to control water temperature: deercasing the water
flow to make the water temperature high (do it slowly, if the flame extinguishes
then re-ignitc by inercasing the water flow), and inercasing the water flow to
make the water temperature low.
• Test water temperature with your hand before using to avoid scalding. (Fig.10)
• Turn off the gas valve after each shower. (Fig.11)
• When the outdoor temperature is below 0ºC, the water heater must be drained
after each shower as follows:
1) Turn off the water control valve.
2) Turn the water flow control knob to "low" position.
3) Remove the drain cock. (The drain cock is a bolt connected to the valve. Take
it off by counter-clockwise to drain the water out completely). Fix the drain
cock back into the original place for another shower.
Gas Leakage Prevention
• It's better to install a gas leakage-warning device.
• Check whether the flame is extinguished after each shower and do not forget
to turn off the gas valve (Fig.11)
• Always check all the gas pipe connectiond with soapsuds to see whether it
has gas leakage. In case of gas leakage, shut off the gas supply and open the
windows immediately. Under such condition, ignnition, switching on/off the
electric power supply are strictly prohibited to avoid explosion and firing.
(Fig.12)
• Keep on using one type of gas (L.P.G or NG), never mixing using them.
• Check the gas tube regularly as it may age and crack after long period of usage.
Replace it if cracked tubes are found. Under normal operation, the gas tube
should be replaced yearly.
• For L.P.G user, if the flame of the heater is not stable, it may be caused by
the breakdown of the pressure reduction valve connected to the outlet of the
gas tank. In that case, stop using the heater immediately and contact a service
technician.
• For TG or NG users, if the flame of the heater is not stable, it may be caused
by the instability of the gas pressure. In thet case, stop using the heater;
otherwise it may be damaged or even cause accident.
Fire Accident Prevention
• Make sure that the flame of the heater has extinguished before leaving the
room or go to sleep.
