This water heater can deliver scalding temperature water at any faucet in the 
system.  Be careful whenever using hot water to avoid scalding injury.  Certain 
appliances such as dishwashers and automatic clothes washers may require 
increased temperature water.  By setting the thermostat on this water heater to 
obtain the increased temperature water required by these appliances, the 
potential for scald injury increases.  To protect against injury, you should install 
an ASSE approved mixing valve in the water system.  This valve will reduce 
point of discharge temperature by mixing cold and hot water in branch supply 
lines.  Such valves are available from the manufacturer of this water heater or a 
local
 
plumbing supplier.  Please consult with a plumbing professional. 
 
 
WARNING
 
Hydrogen gas can be produced in an operating water heater that has 
not had water drawn from the tank for a long period of time (generally 
two weeks or more).  Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable.  To 
prevent the possibility of injury under these conditions, we recommend 
the hot water faucet to be open for several minutes at the kitchen sink 
before you use any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot 
water system.  If hydrogen is present, there will be an unusual sound 
such as air escaping through the pipes as hot water begins to flow.  Do 
not smoke or have open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.
