IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Read all instructions carefully prior to use. For your safety, the information
detailed in this manual should be followed. Improper use and/or handling
can cause serious damage to the appliance and/or to the user including
but not limited to fire, explosion, and/or electric shock, resulting in
personal injury, or death.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this
Owner

WATER HEATER SAFETY PRECAUTION
Hydrogen gas is flammable!
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water
heater that has not been used for more than two weeks. To prevent the
possibility of damage and/or injury, turn on all hot water faucets and allow
them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical
appliance connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will
release any built-up hydrogen gas. Since hydrogen gas is flammable, do
not smoke, use an open flame or use any appliance during this process.
