Description Of Operation; Operating Instructions; Sequence Of Operation; Features Available On Temperature Controllers - Kenmore 154.330030 Owner's Manual

This appliance is one of the most advanced water
heaters available. It provides a continuous supply of
hot water at a preset temperature. This appliance is
direct vent where air is brought in from the outside and
combustion gases are exhausted to the outside.
While electricity, water, and gas supplies are connected,
this appliance produces hot water whenever a hot water
tap is open.
Ignition is electronic. There is no pilot light consuming
gas while the water heater is not being used. The gas
burner lights automatically when the hot water tap is
opened and goes out when the tap is closed. Installation
of the temperature controller is highly recommended.
The temperature controller can set the temperature
within a specific range and can provide error codes to
diagnose any problems.
The temperature of the outgoing hot water is constantly
monitored. This appliance may adjust the water flow
in order to maintain the temperature setting. The
water flow may vary from summer to winter due to the
difference in ground water temperature.
Sequence of Operation
Features Available on Temperature Controllers
1. Water Flow Begins
• Water Flow Sensor sends a pulse to the electronic
control board
• Electronic control board senses flow greater than
