stamped NG supplied in the bag.
Remove the compression nut from the pilot burner
assembly using the 3/8 in. and 5/16 in. wrench to
expose pilot burner orifice. Remove the yellow marked
LP gas pilot burner orifice and replace with natural gas
pilot burner orifice supplied in the package. Replace

the two #6 x 3/8 in. long Phillips head screws. Screw
the pilot burner assembly to the burner bracket using
the Phillips head screw removed on step 7.

surfaces to assure good adhesion of new gasket to the
inner door. Align screw holes of new gasket with holes
on inner door and press gasket firmly in place.
Reinstall entire inner door assembly to the heater.
Ensure the speed clips are in place and the gasket is
fully sealed. Attach inner door loosely to the heater
using four #20 TORX screws. Reconnect and tighten
burner supply, pilot tube and thermocouple at the
thermostat. Handle tubes carefully to avoid damaging
them. DO NOT over-tighten or cross-thread the
connections. Now tighten the four #20 TORX screws
to secure the inner door firmly to the heater. Reconnect
the piezo wire to the piezo ignitor striker connection.

outside of the water heater near the gas control. Label
