inspected on an annual basis. If it is evident there is
excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is cut, it
must be replaced prior to the heater being put into
operation. The hose assembly shall be protected

trials for ignition. If ignition is not achieved after the
third trial, the control system will lock out the gas

valves. Do not relight until you are sure that all gas
that may have accumulated has cleared away. In any
event, do not relight for at least 5 minutes.
