WARNING
Safety Behavior and Practices
• Keep the area around the appliance clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
• Do not use this appliance if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service
technician to inspect the appliance and to replace
any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.

305, 505, 705 Indoor Manual 5
This appliance is one of the most advanced water
heaters available. It provides a continuous supply of
hot water at a preset temperature. This appliance is
direct vent where air is brought in from the outside and
combustion gases are exhausted to the outside.
While electricity, water, and gas supplies are
connected, this appliance produces hot water
whenever a hot water tap is open.
Ignition is electronic. There is no pilot light consuming
gas while the water heater is not being used. The gas
burner lights automatically when the hot water tap is
opened and goes out when the tap is closed.
Installation of the temperature controller is highly
recommended. The temperature controller can set the
temperature within a specific range and can provide
error codes to diagnose any problems.
The temperature of the outgoing hot water is constantly
monitored. This appliance may adjust the water flow in
order to maintain the temperature setting. The water
flow may vary from summer to winter due to the
difference in ground water temperature.

Setting the Temperature
1. Press the “Priority button” on the
temperature controller. The
green Priority light will glow
indicating that this controller is
controlling the temperature and
that the water heater is ready to
supply hot water.
While any hot water is being
provided, the temperature setting can
only be adjusted between 98º F and
110º F.
NOTICE
DANGER Hot water can be dangerous, especially for infants or children, the elderly,
or infirm. There is hot water scald potential if the thermostat is set too high.
Water temperatures over 125º F (51º C) can cause severe burns or
scalding resulting in death.
Hot water can cause first degree burns with exposure for as little as:
3 seconds at 140º F (60º C)
20 seconds at 130º F (54º C)
8 minutes at 120º F (48º C)
Test the temperature of the water before placing a child in the bath or
shower.
Do not leave a child or an infirm person in the bath unsupervised.
The priority can only be changed
while no hot water is running.
Temperature Options Without a Temperature Controller
The default temperature setting for this appliance
installed without a temperature controller is 120º F
(49º C). If desired the temperature setting can be
changed to 140º F (60º C) by adjustment of a dip
switch.
Set dip switch 5 to ON to obtain 140º F water
temperature setting.
Set dip switch 5 to OFF (default) to obtain 120º F
2. Press the ▲or ▼buttons to
obtain the desired temperature
setting.
All hot water sources are able to
provide water at this temperature
setting until it is changed again at
this or another temperature
controller.
Check local codes for the maximum
water temperature setting allowed
when used in nursing homes,
schools, day care centers, and all
other public applications.

WARNING DO NOT adjust the other dip
switches unless specifically
instructed to do so.

If a newly installed unit with a
temperature controller has not been
powered for at least 6 hours then the
temperature will return to the default
setting of 104º F (40º C) if power is
interrupted.
NOTICE
There may be a variation between
the temperature displayed on the
temperature controller and the
temperature at the tap due to
weather conditions or the length of
pipe to the water heater.
NOTICE

305, 505, 705 Indoor Manual 7
Temperature Ranges
This water heater will attempt to provide hot water at the temperature setting even when the water flow is varied
or when more than 1 tap is in use. The water heater can deliver water at only one temperature setting at a time.
The available temperatures for a given model are provided below.
Suggested temperatures are
• Kitchen 120 ºF (49º C)
• Shower 98º - 110º F (37º - 43º C)
These temperatures are suggestions only.
A temperature lower than 98º F (37º C) can be
obtained at the tap by mixing with cold water.
To change the temperature scale from Celsius to Fahrenheit or vice versa, press and hold the “On/Off” button for
5 seconds while the water heater is OFF.
Setting Controller to Mute
To eliminate the beeps when keys are pressed or to turn the beeps back on, press and hold both the ▲and ▼
buttons until a beep is heard (approximately 5 seconds).
The commercial controller is intended for commercial and hydronic applications only. If commercial controller
is used in a residential dwelling for a hydronics application, a mixing valve must also be installed to limit the
potable hot water temperature to a safe temperature. Water temperatures over 125º F (51º C) can cause
severe burns or scalding. Refer to the Danger Alert on water temperatures. The manufacturer shall not, in
any event, be liable for damages resulting from such misuse or misapplication.
** Commercial Controller
These settings require the commercial controller which is for commercial and hydronic applications requiring
higher temperatures. When the commercial controller is connected, these higher temperatures are available
on all controller models in the system.

WARNING
Turn off the electrical power supply, the manual gas
valve and the manual water control valve whenever
servicing the unit.
Repairs and maintenance should be performed by a
qualified service technician. The appliance should be
inspected annually by a qualified service technician.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
Cleaning
It is imperative that control compartments, burners,
and circulating air passageways of the appliance be
kept clean.
Clean as follows:
1. Turn off and disconnect electrical power. Allow to
cool.
2. Remove and clean the water inlet filter.
3. Remove the front panel by removing 4 screws.
4. Use pressurized air to remove dust from the main
burner, heat exchanger, and fan blades. Do not
use a wet cloth or spray cleaners on the burner.
Do not use volatile substances such as benzene
and thinners. They may ignite or fade the paint.
5. Use soft dry cloth to wipe cabinet.
Vent System
The vent system should be inspected at least annually
for blockages or damage.
Motors
Motors are permanently lubricated and do not need
periodic lubrication. Keep fan and motor free of dust
and dirt by cleaning annually.
Temperature Controller
Use a soft damp cloth to clean the temperature
controller. Do not use solvents.
Lime / Scale Build-up
If you receive Error Code “LC”, refer to the procedure,
Flushing the Heat Exchanger. Refer to the section on
Water Quality to see if your water needs to be treated
or conditioned. (When checking maintenance code
history, “00” is substituted for “LC”.)
Visual Inspection of Flame
The burner must flame evenly over the entire surface
when operating correctly. The flame must burn with a
clear, blue, stable flame. See the parts breakdown of
the burner for the location of the view ports.
The flame pattern should be as shown in the figures
below.
Snow Accumulation
Keep the area around flue terminal free of snow and
ice. The appliance will not function properly if the
intake air or exhaust is impeded (blocked or partially
blocked) by obstructions.
