Safety Control
For added safety, this water heater is equipped with a
Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistance (FVIR) system. If
flammable vapors (such as gasoline) are drawn into the
water heater’s air supply, the FVIR system is designed
to isolate these vapors and shut down the water heater
should they reach the pilot light and burner
DO NOT try to light the water heater if flammable vapors
are present; this could cause a fire or explosion. When
the flammable vapors have been removed, contact a
qualified service technician. Replacement of the water
heater due to a flammable vapor shutdown is not
covered under the warranty.
