21 3. Adjusting the Operating Set Point The Operating Set Point of this water heater determines the regulated temperature for the water in the tank. This parameter is adjusted in the T emperature menu. Items in this menu allow you to monitor different temperature readings in the tank along with adjusting the Operating Set Point and Differential .
22 4. Changing the Display Units The display interface to the heater has the option of selecting between degrees and Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius for temperature displays. This can be found in the "Display Settings" menu. Also in this menu, you may adjust how the backlight operates and the contrast of the LCD screen.
23 • Faults: This is a safety related condition that has been detected by the heater . NOTE: When these conditions occur , the water heater will not continue any further heating cycles and the water will no longer be heated until the condition is corrected and, in most cases, power has been cycled.
24 7. V iewing the Fault History The controller for this water heater will store a history of ten of the last Fault and W arning conditions that occurred.
