10.1 Internal anti-scalding protection via jumper
slot
For increased safety, the qualified contractor can set an internal
anti-scalding temperature limit via the "Tmax" jumper. The an-
ti-scalding protection feature limits the maximum output tempera-
ture of the water heater. This feature overrides the temperature
selector knob on the front cover. A user can still make temperature
adjustments below the anti-scalding limit using the temperature
selector knob, however, any temperature selected that is higher
than the Tmax limit will be ignored, and the output temperature
will be limited to the set Tmax value.

CAUTION Burns
If the water supplied to the water heater is preheated,
the internal anti-scalding protection and the user-ad-
justable temperature limit may be exceeded.
In such cases, limit the temperature with an upstream
central thermostatic valve.
