OPERATION and MAINTENANCE
This water heater is equipped with an
adjustable thermostat to control water
temperature.
Hot
required for automatic dishwasher and
laundry use could cause scald burns
resulting in serious personal injury and/or
death. The temperature at which injury
occurs varies with the person's age and
time of exposure. The slower response time
of disabled persons increases the hazards
to them. Never allow small children to use a
hot water tap or to draw their own bath
water. Never leave a child or disabled
person unattended in a bathtub or shower.

Since the thermostat temperature setting
could be set too high, adjust the thermostat
temperature setting to 125°F or lower.
Lower settings help reduce risk of scald
injury. Remember, no water heater system
will provide exact temperature at all times.
Allow a few days of operation at this setting
to
determine
setting consistent with your needs and
remember, "Hotter water increases the risk
of scald injury." Also, the water heater
should be located in an area where the
general public does not have access to set
temperatures.
