Product & Safety Information Definitions The following terms are used throughout this manual to bring attention to the presence of potential hazards or important information concerning the product. DANGER NOTICE Indicates the presence of a hazardous situation which, if ignored, will result in death, serious injury or substantial property damage. Indicates special instructions on installation, operation or maintenance, which are important to equipment but not related to personal injury hazards.
Product & Safety Information PRODUCT & SAFETY INFORMATION CHALLENGER Operation • Do not block flow of combustion air to the CHALLENGER. If the combustion air blockage is easily accessible and removable, then remove it. If blockage is not obvious or cannot be removed, have the appliance and system checked by a qualified service technician. • Do not allow contaminated air to enter the appliance’s combustion air inlet. See page 2 for details. • The CHALLENGER is equipped with a low water cut off device.
Combustion Air - Prevention of Contamination SECTION I - COMBUSTION AIR - PREVENTION OF CONTAMINATION Potential Contaminating Products WARNING If the CHALLENGER combustion air inlet is located in any area likely to cause or contain contamination, or if products, which would contaminate the air cannot be removed, the combustion air must be repiped and terminated to another location.
Maintenance Schedule SECTION II - Maintenance Schedule Owner Maintenance Service Technician Periodic At least on an annual basis the following maintenance should be performed by a qualified service technician: - Check the area around the appliance. - Check and remove any blockage from the combustion air inlet and ventilation openings. - Check the temperature/pressure gauge. General - Attend to any reported problems.
Maintenance Procedures SECTION III - MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES 1. Combustible / flammable materials - Do not store combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids near the appliance. Remove immediately if found. WARNING 2. Air contaminates - Products containing chlorine or fluorine, if allowed to contaminate the combustion air, will cause acidic condensate within the appliance. This will cause significant damage to the appliance.
Maintenance Procedures Monthly Maintenance WARNING Check Vent Piping Under some circumstances the CHALLENGER may not produce enough condensate to keep the condensate trap full of liquid. If the trap is not full, small amounts of flue gases can be emitted into the surrounding area through the condensate drain line. 1. Visually inspect the flue gas vent piping for any signs of blockage, leakage or deterioration of the piping. Notify a qualified service technician immediately if any problems are found. 3.
Maintenance Procedures 6-Month Maintenance 2. Read the temperature and pressure gauge to ensure the system is pressurized. Lift the relief valve top lever slightly, allowing water to relieve through the valve and discharge piping. Check Water and Gas Piping 3. If water flows freely, release the lever and allow the valve to seat. Watch the end of the relief valve discharge pipe to ensure that the valve does not weep after the line has had time to drain.
Operating Instructions SECTION IV - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING WARNING If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life. A. This appliance does not have a pilot. It is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the burner. DO NOT try to light the burner by hand. B.
