NOTE: THE FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY CREATE
A HAZARD TO LIFE AND PROPERTY AND WILL NULLIFY THE WARRANTY.
Water heater corrosion and component failure can be caused by heating and
breakdown of airborne chemical vapors. Examples of typical compounds that are
potentially corrosive are: spray can propellants, cleaning solvents, refrigeration
and air conditioning refrigerants, swimming pool chemicals, calcium and sodium
chloride, waxes and process chemicals. These materials are corrosive at very low
concentration levels with little or no odor to reveal their presence.
NOTE: DAMAGE TO THE WATER HEATER CAUSED BY EXPOSURE TO
CORROSIVE VAPORS IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
WARNING
Water heaters are heat-producing appliances. To avoid damage or
injury, there shall be no materials stored against the water heater.
Proper care shall be taken to avoid unnecessary contact (especially by
children) with the water heater. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHALL FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS GASOLINE OR PAINT
THINNER, BE USED OR STORED IN THE VICINITY OF THIS WATER
HEATER OR IN ANY LOCATION FROM WHICH FUMES COULD
REACH THE WATER HEATER.
