Setting the Thermostat
The water heater is equipped with an adjustable thermostat that once set will automatically control water
temperature. The red indicator lamp remains illuminated while the water is being heated. If the water in
the tank is at the desired temperature the lamp will NOT be illuminated. The temperature adjusting knob
will increase the temperature by turning the knob clockwise and decrease the water temperature by turning
the knob counter clockwise. When not being used for a lengthy period of time, you can conserve energy by
reducing the water temperature setting.
Setting the Freeze Protection:
When the water heater is not being used for an extended period of time and there is a risk of freezing,
either unplug and drain the water heater or turn the thermostat knob to the snowake position to guard
against freezing. This position will keep the internal water temperature above the freezing point. See
gure below.
Maintenance Instructions
Do not attempt to repair this water heater yourself. Call a service person (plumber or electrician) for
service assistance. Always unplug the power supply cord when the water is turned off or when servicing or
draining the water heater. Before calling for service, rst conrm that the water heater is properly lled and
that 110VAC power has not been interrupted.
