TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
To change the temperature setting:
NOTE: It is not necessary to adjust the upper thermostat. However, if it 
is adjusted above the factory set point (120°F (49°C)) it is recommended 
that it not be set higher than the lower thermostat setting.
1.  Turn off the heater electrical supply. Do not attempt to adjust 
thermostat with power on.
2.  Remove the thermostat access panel(s) and fold up insulation 
to expose the thermostats. Do not remove the plastic personnel 
protectors covering the thermostats.
3. Using a fl at tip screwdriver, rotate the adjustment knob to the 
desired temperature setting.
4.  Replace the insulation and access panels and turn on heater 
electrical supply.

HOTTER WATER CAN SCALD: Water heaters are intended 
to produce hot water. Water heated to a temperature which 
will satisfy space heating, clothes washing, dish washing, and 
other sanitizing needs can scald and permanently injure you 
upon contact. Some people are more likely to be permanently 
injured by hot water than others. These include the elderly, 
children, the infirm, or physically/mentally disabled. If anyone 
using hot water in your home fits into one of these groups 
or if there is a local code or state law requiring a certain 
temperature water at the hot water tap, then you must 
take special precautions. In addition to using the lowest 
possible temperature setting that satisfies your hot water 
needs, a means such as a mixing valve, should be used 
at the hot water taps used by these people or at the water 
heater. Mixing valves are available from your local plumbing 
contractor. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for installation 
of the valves. Before changing the factory setting on the 
thermostat, see Figure 8.
Never allow small children to use a hot water tap or to draw 
their own bath water. Never leave a child or handicapped 
person unattended in a bathtub or shower.
It is recommended that lower water temperatures be used 
to avoid the risk of scalding. It is further recommended, 
in all cases, that the water temperature thermostat be 
set for the lowest temperature which satisfies your hot 
water needs. This will also provide the most energy 
efficient operation of the water heater. Thermostat(s) are 
factory set at 120°F (49°C) unless specified differently by 
state requirements.  
KEEPING THE THERMOSTAT SETTING AT 120°F (49°C) 
WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF SCALDS.
