1 Temperature/Pressure relief valve
2 Hot water outlet
3 Cold water inlet
4 Discharge pipe
Install a discharge pipe from the relief valve terminating at a sink
or drain. Orient the tubing so that discharge will exit within 6˝
(152 mm) above or at any distance below the structural floor, and
cannot contact any live electrical parts.
DO NOT CAP OR THREAD THE END OF THE DISCHARGE PIPE, IT
MUST BE UNOBSTRUCTED AND FULL SIZE.
The T&P valve is certified by a nationally recognized test laboratory
that maintains periodic inspection of the listed equipment, and
meets the requirements for relief valves and automatic shut-off
devices for hot water supply systems ANSI Z21.22.
The T&P valve is marked with a maximum pressure, which does
not exceed the maximum working pressure of the water heater
(150 PSI).
THE DISCHARGE PIPE
- Must not be smaller in size than the outlet pipe size of the
valve, or have reducing couplings.
- Must not be plugged or blocked.
- Must be of material suitable for hot water.
- Must not be over 15 ´ (4.5 m) in length.
- Must not have more than two elbows.
- Must terminate at an adequate drain.
- Must not have a valve between the relief valve and the tank.

NOTICE:
The water heater must be connected to a grounded
outlet.
This water heater was designed for use at 110 -
120 V. Do not use this water heater with any other
voltage. Failure to use the correct voltage may result
in personal injury or property damage.
The heater is supplied with an electrical cable with a
plug. If the cable is damaged or length not sufficient,
it must be replaced by a licensed electrician.
To be certain that all the air is out of the system, open the hot
water faucet on your fixtures until constant water flows from them.
Otherwise, damage to the device may occur.
Connect the water heater to a GROUNDED OUTLET.
The unit is fitted with a power cord to connect the water heater
to a receptacle. State and local codes must be adhered to. Install
the correct breaker at the circuit breaker panel.
The water heater was manufactured and wired in accordance with
the UL requirements.
A temperature high limit with manual reset has been factory in-
stalled to interrupt the power supply in the event of a thermostat
failure.
DO NOT use this water heater with any other voltage. Failure to
use the correct voltage may result in personal injury or property
damage.

10. Settings

The water heater is equipped with an adjustable thermostat that
automatically controls the water temperature. The indicator lamp
remains lit only when the water is being heated.
The temperature is adjusted by turning the knob counterclockwise
(to the left) to increase the temperature and clockwise (to the right)
to decrease the temperature.
The water heater thermostat can be set to guard against freezing.
This position keeps the internal temperature above the freezing
point.
The piping outside of the water heater and the faucet are not
protected against freezing.
