TROUBLESHOOTING

IGNITION MODULE SYSTEM

Before calling your service agent, the following checklist should

be examined to eliminate obvious problems from those requiring

replacement or servicing.

— Check that “main manual gas shut-off valve” is fully open and

that gas service has not been interrupted.

— Check that after following the appliance OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS, the “Top Knob” of the appliance gas valve

is in “ON” position.

— Check electrical supply to the appliance for possible blown (or

tripped) fusing or power interruption.

— Is the water temperature in tank below the thermostat

dial setting on the appliance thermostat (calling for

heat)?

Temperature Control for reset procedure. Contact your

serviceman if limit continues to function to shut off

appliance.

problems which may arise when the unit is put into operation.

HOWEVER, it is recommended that only qualified servicemen,

using appropriate test equipment, be allowed to service the
