On In Use indoor models it is integrated into the front panel. Indicator Priority The MCC-91-2 controller is for commercial and...
How to Set the Temperature This water heater requires a minimum flow rate to operate. This rate can be found on the specification page in this manual. In some cases when you are not getting hot water or if the water alternates between hot and cold, it is due to the water flow being below or close to the minimum flow rate.
Page 77
Temperatures Available with a Controller The water heater can deliver water at only one temperature setting at a time. The available temperatures are provided below. A temperature lower than 98° F (37° C) can be obtained at the tap by mixing with cold water. To change the temperature scale from Celsius to Fahrenheit or vice versa, press and hold the “On/Off”...
Temperature Options Without a Temperature Controller The default temperature setting for this appliance installed without a temperature controller is 120° F (49° C). If desired, the temperature setting can be changed to 140° F (60° C) by adjustment of a switch. In the SW1 Dip switch (tan switches), set switch 5 to ON to obtain 140°...

An LC0~LC9 or “00” diagnostic code indicates the unit is beginning to lime up and must be flushed. Failure to flush the appliance will cause damage to the heat exchanger. Damage caused by lime build-up is not covered by the unit’s warranty. Giant strongly recommends installation of isolation valves to allow for flushing of the heat exchanger.
Manual Draining of the Water Heater WARNING To avoid burns, wait until the equipment cools down before draining the water. The water in the appliance will remain hot after it is turned off. If the water heater is not going to be used during a period of possible freezing weather, it is recommended that the water inside the water heater be drained.
