OPERATING YOUR WATER HEATER Read and understand these directions thoroughly before attempting to operate the water heater (see Operating Instructions on page 25). Check the data plate on the front of the water heater for the correct gas. Do not use this water heater with any gas other than the one listed on the data plate. If you have any questions or doubts, consult your gas supplier or gas utility company. L.P. (Propane) Models Propane gas is heavier than air and in the occurrence of a leak in the system, the gas will settle on the floor level. Basements, crawl spaces, skirted areas under mobile homes (even when ventilated), closets and areas below ground level will serve as pockets for the accumulation of gas. Before lighting a propane gas water heater, smell all around the appliance at floor level. If you smell gas, follow the instructions as given in the warning on the front page. When your propane tank runs out of fuel, turn off the gas at all gas appliances including pilot lights. After the tank is refilled, all appliances must be re-lit according to their manufacturer’s instructions. Water Heater Operation This appliance does not have a pilot light. It is equipped with an electronic ignition that automatically lights the burner. There are three lights to indicate the various stages of operation; Green = Electrical power is on, Yellow = Thermostat is calling for heat, which signals the beginning of the ignition sequence (see figure 21), and Red = Ignition control is signaling the gas valve to open. Figure 21: Sequence of Operation When the thermostat calls for heat, the blower will run for 6 seconds to purge the system of any accumulated gas or air. The hot surface igniter will heat up for 35 seconds. The blower will turn on and the gas valve open, forcing the air and gas mixture across the hot surface igniter, causing the burner to light. The hot surface igniter will turn off and act as an elec...
