SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

WATER HEATER SAFETY

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two or more weeks.

HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.

If the hot water has not been used for two or more weeks, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning

on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical

appliance connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to

escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke, use an open flame, or use the appliance during this process.
