mode and must be restarted. If this happens, turn
the Water Heater switch off for about 5 minutes,
then turn it back on. See the water heater user’s
guide in your Owner InfoCase for further infor-
mation.
For Quick Recovery Operation (Dual)
Turn On both Water Heater switches; the gas
one on the monitor panel and the electric one.
This will help reheat the water heater tank more
quickly than a single source would alone. Use
this mode when you are using a larger than nor-
mal volume of hot water.
Gas Safety Information
A. This appliance does not have a pilot light. It
is equipped with an ignition device that auto-
matically lights the burner. Do Not try to
light the burner by hand.
B. Before lighting, smell around the appliance
area for gas. Be sure to smell near floor
because LP gas is heavier than air and will
settle on the floor. See LP Gas Leaks in Sec-
tion 8 if you suspect a gas leak.
Operating Instructions
1. Read the safety information provided in the
Water Heater Operation Manual in your
Owner InfoCase.
2. Turn off water heater power switches.
3. Turn LP gas supply off.
4. Wait five minutes for any gas to clear the
area. If you smell gas, then stop and follow
item B of the Safety Information above. If
you don’t smell gas, go to the next step.
5. Turn on LP gas main tank valve.
6. Turn on the water heater switch on the moni-
tor panel. You may hear a clicking noise as
the ignition element begins working. If the
burner does not light on first try, the system
will stop trying to light burner and go to
lockout mode.
7. If lockout happens before main burner lights,
turn switch OFF, wait five seconds and turn
switch back on. This will restart the ignition
cycle. The first start-up of the water heater
after it has not been used for a long time may
require several ignition cycles before all the
air is purged from the gas lines and gas
begins to flow.
If the burner will not come on, check the fol-
lowing items before calling for service.
1. Is the switch turned on?
2. Does the LP tank have gas in it or is main
tank valve turned on?
3. Is the ECO Reset button tripped? (See
Water Heater Operation Manual
in your
Owner InfoCase.)
NOTE: If lockout condition persists, contact
your dealer.
To Turn Water Heater Off
1. Turn switch on monitor panel to Off posi-
tion.
2. Turn electric water heater switch off.
3. Turn off LP gas supply (if not to be used for
extended period).
4. Drain water heater tank if the coach is to be
stored or water heater will be Off during
freezing temperatures. (See Draining and
Storage Instructions in
Water Heater Opera-
tion Manual
in your Owner InfoCase.
