* Damage can occur from frozen water within the device and pipes even in warm environments.
Be sure to read below for appropriate measures.
* Repairs for damage caused by freezing are not covered by the warranty.
Freezing cannot be prevented when the power plug is unplugged. Do not remove the power
plug from the wall outlet.
(Freezing will be prevented regardless of whether the operation switch is ON or OFF.)
Take the measures below for extremely cold temperatures*.
(outside temperature including wind chill factor less than -30°F (-35°C) .
This method can protect not only the heater, but also the water supply,
water piping and mixing valves.
1. Turn off the power.
2. Close the gas supply valve.
3. Open a hot water xture, and keep a small stream of hot water
running. (0.1 gallon (400cc)/minute or about 0.2" (4mm) thick.)
* If there is a mixing valve, set it to the highest level.
* When linking multiple units, discharge water equivalent to
(0.1 gallon (400cc)//minute per unit.
4. The ow may become unstable from time to time. Check the ow
30 minutes later.
* In general, it is not advisable to run water through the unit when
it is OFF ( p. 6), but in this case freeze prevention is more
important.
* Remember to set mixing valves and xtures to their original levels before using the unit again
to prevent scalding.
* If there is still a risk that the unit will freeze, drain the unit as shown on the next page.

Preventing Damage from Freezing-1
Freezing is prevented within the device automatically by the freeze-prevention heater
If water will not ow because it is frozen
1. Close the gas and water valves.
2. Turn off the power button.
3. Open the water supply valve from time to time to check whether water is running.
4. When the water is owing again, check for water leaks from the equipment and piping before using.
If the heater or the piping is frozen, do not use the heater or it may get damaged.
CAUTION
* In normal operation, freezing is prevented within the device automatically unless the outside
temperature without wind is below -30°F (-35°C) .
* The freeze prevention heaters will not prevent the plumbing external to the unit from freezing.
Protect this plumbing with insulation, heat tape or electric heaters, solenoids, or pipe covers.
If there remains a freezing risk, contact the nearest Noritz agent.

If the water heater will not be used for a long period of time,
Drain the water.
Drain the water as follows:
To avoid burns, wait until the equipment cools down before draining the water.
The appliance will remain hot after it is turned off.
High Temperature
Turning the Unit Back On
1. Check that all drain plugs are inserted.
2. Check that all hot water xtures are closed.
3. Follow the procedure on p.10 “Initial operation”, steps 1 through 4.
Preventing Damage from Freezing-2
CAUTION
1. Close the gas valve.
2. Turn off ther power button.
3. Turn off the power supply.
4. Close the water supply valve.
5. Fully open all hot water xtures.
6. Turn the drain plug to the left to open, and then remove.
7. Check that the water is completely drained, close all the
drain plugs and the hot water xtures after 10 minutes
or more pass from operation of 6.
Drain water into a bucket to prevent water damage.
Fixture
Do not touch with wet hands.
Drain Plugs
Each drain plug mignt not be visible
if insulation is installed around the
piping.

Periodic Maintenance
Wipe the outside surface with a wet cloth, then dry the surface. Use a neutral detergent to
clean any stains.
• Do not use benzene, oil or fatty detergents to clean the operation panel;
deformation may occur.
• The operation panel is water resistant but not water proof. Keep it as dry as possible.
Regular Maintenance-1
Periodic Inspection
For laundry, newspaper, timber,
oil, spray cans and other
combustible materials.
Equipment
Operation Panel
Wipe the surface with a wet cloth.
For abnormal sounds
during operation.
For abnormalities in
external appearance,
discoloration or aws.
For water leaks from
the equipment and
piping.
For proper operation of
pressure relief valve.
For dust and soot
in the ue terminal.
Be sure to do.
To prevent burns or scalding, turn off the power button and wait until the
equipment cools before performing maintenance.

Periodic Maintenance
If the water drain valve (with water lter) is covered with debris, the hot water may not run
smoothly, or the unit may put out cold water. Check and clean the lter as explained below.
* To avoid burns, wait until the equipment cools down before draining the water.
The appliance will remain hot after it is turned off.
Water Drain Valve (with Water Filter)
1. Close the water supply valve.
2. Open all hot water xtures.
3. With a bucket ready, remove the inlet and outlet
drain plugs (about 0.2 gallon (0.95L) will drain out)
4. Take the water drain valve (with water lter) out of
the inlet. (See illustration to right).
5. Clean the water drain valve (with water lter) with
a brush under running water.
6. Replace the water drain valve (with water lter)
and close the drain plugs.
(Take care not to lose the packing.)
7. Close all hot water xtures.
8. Open the water supply valve and check that
water does not leak from the drain plugs or water
drain valve (with water lter).
Optional Maintenance
* Isolation valves may be purchased as an
accessory from Noritz.
They allow for full diagnostic testing and easy
ushing of the system.
* The kit includes two full port isolation valves
and a pressure relief valve for the hot side.
Contact Noritz for more information.
