Section 3. Operating
Instructions
Lighting and shutdown instructions are posted inside the
heater.
WARNING
LP GAS: To avoid possible injury, fire and explosion,
read and follow these precautions and all instructions
on this appliance before starting the heater. LP
(propane) gas is heavier than air and will remain at
ground level if there is a leak. Before lighting, sniff at
ground level. If you smell gas, follow these rules:
1. DO NOT light matches. DO NOT turn electric
lights or switches on or off in area. DO NOT use
an electric fan to remove the gas from area.
2. Shut off gas at LP tank.
3. Telephone gas company and fire department for
instructions. Give your name, address and phone
number.
If your LP tank runs out of fuel, turn off gas at the
appliance. After the tank is refilled, the appliance must
be re-started according to the instructions located on
the inside of the door.

Start-Up Procedure

WARNING
For your safety, when starting the heater, keep your
head and face well away from the burner area to
prevent any risk of personal injury.
WARNING
Vent pipes and heater tops get hot! These surfaces
can cause serious burns. Do not touch these surfaces
while the heater is in operation.
CAUTION
Do not use this heater if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect
the heater and replace any part of the control system
and any gas control which has been under water.
CAUTION
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut
off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the heater.
CAUTION
Do not attempt repairs on the gas controls or appliance.
Tampering is dangerous and voids all warranties.
CAUTION
Keep all objects off the top of the heater. Blocking air flow
could damage the heater and might void the warranty.
Jandy Pro Series, Hi-E2 and Hi-E2R Gas-Fired Heater
® ®
With any new pool or spa installation, run the filter pump
with the heater off long enough to completely clean the
water. This removes any installation residue from the
water. Clean the filter at the end of this operation before
starting the heater. Do not operate the heater unless the
pool is properly filled with water.
When raising the temperature of water in a cold pool,
remove all time clock settings. This lets the filter system
and heater operate continuously until the water reaches the
temperature setting on the thermostat. When that happens,
the heater will shut off automatically, but the filter pump
will keep running.
3.2

Temperature Controls

The Hi-E heater has a dual temperature control which
2
allows either of two (2) different temperature settings to
be selected with the rotary switch on the control panel.
The owner can set one control for normal use and the
other for standby, or one might be set for a pool and the
other for a spa. Setting the rotary switch to the middle
position turns the heater off. See Figure 26.
The temperature controls on the Hi-E
from approximately 70°F (21°C) to approximately 104°F
(40°C). Always use an accurate pool thermometer to
test the pool water temperature. To prevent users from
setting the water temperature higher than desired, use the
TEMP-LOK feature by positioning the tab next to the
knob and then tightening the screw. Note that the heater
should not be used to maintain pool or spa temperature
below 70°F (21°C).
IMPORTANT
calibrated in the field. If the temperature control
does not work, shut down the heater and replace the
temperature control. DO NOT use the temperature
control to shut the heater off. Remove the access door
and turn the main gas valve to OFF.
