NOTE: When you turn "on" the switch for the water heater the middle red button will light up. It will go
off after several seconds—this means the water heater is lit. However, if the light stays illuminated, then
that means the water heater has not ignited.

LP Gas – Electronic Ignition Operation
1. If the water heater fails to operate because of high water temperature, the heater will go into a
lockout condition (indicator light "on"). When the water eventually cools, reset the system by
turning the switch to the "off" position for at least 30 seconds, then turn the switch back "on."
2. If a lockout condition persists, contact your authorized dealer.
120- VOLT AC ELECTRICAL OPERATION
1. For electrical operation, use the Water Heater switch found on the master control panel in the
galley of the coach.
2. Completely fill the water heater with water and purge the hot-water lines of any trapped air.
3. Turn the Water Heater switch "on." NOTE: Turning the power "on" to the water heater without
having previously covered the water-heating element with water may burn out the element and
void the warranty.
4. After a while, check the water heater for proper operation; the water temperature should be
approximately 140°F (60°C).
5. If the manual-reset, high-temperature-limit switch should trip the circuit breaker; reset the
switch by depressing the reset button--use a pencil or other non-metallic object to depress the
reset button. If the high-temperature-limit switch should again trip the circuit breaker, contact
an authorized service technician or an authorized dealer.
