improper installation, or failure to follow the instructions in this manual.
A QUALIFIED, LICENSED TECHNICIAN IS RECOMMENDED TO INSTALL THE WATER

IMPORTANT!
FILL THE TANK COMPLETELY FULL WITH WATER AND HAVE WATER FLOWING
FROM THE HOT WATER FAUCET BEFORE ACTIVATING POWER TO THE HEATER
FOR THE FIRST TIME OR DAMAGE WILL RESULT.
CAUTION!
Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system served by this heater
that has not been used for a long period of time (generally 2 weeks or more).
Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To reduce the risk of injury under these
conditions, it is recommended that the hot water faucet be opened for several
minutes at the nearest and most distant sink being served by this water heater
before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system {i.e.
Dishwasher). If hydrogen gas is present, there will probably be an unusual
sound such as air escaping through the faucet as the water begins to flow.
There should be no smoking or open flame near the faucet at this time.
