IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!

WATER HEATER SAFETY

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.
