DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable, combustible, or corrosive vapors and/or 
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. 
 
Failure to properly install the vent and air intake (if applicable) system could result in property

This water heater is equipped with an adjustable thermostat to control water temperature.  
Hot water temperatures required for automatic dishwasher and laundry use can cause scald 
burns resulting in serious personal injury and/or death.  The temperature at which injury 
occurs varies with the person’s age and the time of exposure.  The slower response time of 
disabled persons increases the hazards to them.  NEVER allow small children to use a hot 
water tap, or to draw their own bath water.  NEVER leave a child or disabled person 
unattended in a bathtub or shower.
