The ignition system safety shut-off must be tested by
conducting the following method of tests:
a) With the system power off, manually shut off the
gas supply.
b) Turn power back on, observe the igniter start to
heat up and glow bright orange.
c) After about four (4) seconds, the gas valve is
energized, then de-energizes, after the third try the
module goes into a safety lockout a few sec-
onds later. Igniter will stop glowing and the R ed
LED on the module will start blinking.
d) Manually reopen the gas supply. No gas should be
flowing into the main burners. End of test.
e) To reset the system, momentarily shut off power
switch then turn it back on again. Igniter will start
to heat up and normal heating cycle will occur as

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. The water pump motor and the combustion air
blower motor are permanently lubricated and re-
quires no other maintenance.
2. Venting system for this heater may be equipped
with high temperature plastic material rated for
operation at 480°F maximum. Check for signs of
deformation in the plastic vent pipes which will be
an indication of excessive temperature and abnor-
mal conditions in the venting system. Refer to the
instructions supplied by the vent pipe manufac-
turer.
3. The burner is made of ceramic material and oper-
ates in the infrared mode. When the burner is
operating properly very little blue flame will be
visible due to the incandescent brightness of the
ceramic material. This can be observed through
