WARNING
• Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that
has not been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under
these circumstances. 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 allowing 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.
