TEMPERATURE-PRESSURE

RELIEF VALVE

DISCHARGE PIPE

Failure to install and maintain a new properly listed tempera

ture-premure relief valve will release the manufteturer from any

claim which might result from excessive temperature or pressure.

AWARNING

If the temperature-pressure relief valve on the appliance

weeps or discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal

expansion. Your water heater may have a check valve

in^led in the water line or a water meter with a check

t«ive. Consult the Sears Service Center for further Informa

tion. Do not pli4g the temperature-pressure relief valve.

AWARNING

tion, make sure that (!) no one is in front of or around the

ou^ of the temperature-pressure relief valve discharge line,

and (z) that the water maiiually discharged will not cause any

[wuperty damage because the water may be extremdy hot

If after manually operating the valve, it foils to completely

reset and continues to release water, immediately close the

cold water inlet to the water heater, follow the draining

instructions, and replace the temperature-pressure relief
