WARNING—H~ROGEN GAS is

accumulate in the water heater
antior
water pipes if hot water has not been used for a
period of two weeks or longer. HYDROGEN GAS
IS
EXPLOSIW.
To prevent the possibility of
damage or injury, if you have not used hot water
for two weeks or more, or moved into a residence
in which the hot water system may not have been
used for some time, turn on all hot water faucets
and allow them to run for several minutes before
using any electrical appliance which is connected
to the hot water system. This will allow any
hydrogen gas to escape. Also, since the gas is
flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame
or appliance during this process.
