Water Heater - Winnebago Sunflyer Manual

The "Pilot Out" light will glow for about 10-
15 seconds after the water heater switch is turned
on, then it will go off. The "Heater On" light will
remain lit.
If the "Pilot Out" light comes on during nor-
mal operation, it means that the burner has gone
into "lockout" mode. Turn the switch off for
about 5 minutes, then turn back on.
GAS/ELECTRIC
WATER HEATER - Optional
(with Motor Aid water heating
system)
Capacity: 10 gal.
The 10 gallon water heater has a dual power
feature. It can operate from LP gas or 110-volt
house current; or it can use both at the same time
for quicker recovery at times when you are using
a lot of hot water.
Read the Atwood Gas Water Heater Installa-
tion and Operation Manual for complete Safety
Warnings, Operating Instructions and Mainte-
nance Information before operating the water
heater.
Be sure the water heater is filled with
water before starting either electric or LP
operation. To fill the water heater, turn the
Water Pump switch on and open a hot water fau-
cet anywhere in the coach. When water begins to
flow steadily from the faucet, the water heater is
full.
For Electric Operation: Turn on the Water
Heater electric element switch. The shoreline
must be connected for electric operation.

For LP Gas Operation: Press the Water
Heater switch on the Monitor Panel. The "Pilot
Out" light will glow for about 10-15 seconds,
then it will go out. If the "Pilot Out" light comes
on during LP operation, it means that the burner
has gone into "lockout" mode and must be
restarted. If this happens, turn the Water Heater
switch off for about 5 minutes, then turn it back
on. See the Atwood user's guide in your Owners
InfoCase for further information.
For Quick Recovery Operation (Dual):
Turn On both Water Heater switches; the gas one
on the monitor panel and the electric one. This
will help reheat the water heater tank more
quickly than a single source would alone. Use
this mode when you are using a larger than nor-
mal volume of hot water, for example, when
someone is taking a shower and the dishwasher
or clothes washer is also being used.
Gas Safety Information
A. This appliance does not have a pilot light. It
is equipped with an ignition device that auto-
matically lights the burner. Do Not try to
light the burner by hand.
B. Before lighting, smell around the appliance
area for gas. Be sure to smell near floor
because LP gas is heavier than air and will
settle on the floor.
