Always remove the power cord from its receptacle before servicing the heater.
If the heater stops working:
■ ■
Check the circuit breaker supplying power to the outlet where the heater is installed.
If the circuit breaker has tripped:
■ ■
Have the circuit checked by an electrician to determine if the circuit is overloaded or if a short exists.
If the circuit breaker has not tripped:
■ ■
Remove the power cord from its receptacle.
■ ■
Remove the thermostat cover on the front of the heater.
■ ■
Inspect the heater for any frayed or loose elctrical connections.
■ ■
Push the red “reset” button at the top of the thermostat compartment.
■ ■
If the button “clicks” when pushed, something has caused the heater to overheat. Leave power cord unplugged and
contact your service agency.
■ ■
If the button does not “click” when pushed, the element has probably burned out and should be replaced. Contact
your service agency.
If the water over heats, or if steam is released from the relief valve:
■ ■
Unplug the power cord immediately.
■ ■
Allow tank to cool.
■ ■
Remove the cover on the front of the heater and check that the thermostat is seated firmly against the front of the tank
and that the mounting bracket is snug, but not over tightened.
■ ■
If there are any continued signs of overheating, disconnect the power and contact a qualified service person.
Relief Valve Operation:
■ ■
If the relief valve weeps or drips hot water, contact a qualified service person. If a check valve is installed in the hot water
line, an expansion tank must be properly installed.
