Servicing Safe Guards
To avoid personal injury and/or property damage, it is important that safe servicing practices be observed at all times. Examples of safe service practices are listed below but are not limited to the following:- Never attempt a product repair if you have any doubts as to your ability to complete the repair in a safe and satisfactory manner.
- Before servicing or removing an appliance:
- Disconnect power to the appliance.
- Turn off the gas / LP supply.
- Turn off the water supply.
- Never interfere with the proper operation of any safety device.
- Use only genuine factory replacement parts as substitutions may interfere with compliances to home safety codes or standards.
- It is extremely important that all safety ground connections be reestablished prior to the completion of the service call. Failure to do so will result in a hazardous condition being created.
- Prior to returning the appliance back into active service, ensure the following:
- All electrical connections are correct and secure.
- Electrical leads are properly dressed and secured away from sharp edges, high temperature components and moving parts.
- All non-insulated electrical terminals, connectors, heaters, etc. are adequately spaced away from metal parts or panels.
- All safety grounds (both internal and external) are correctly and securely connected.
- All access panels are properly and securely reassembled.
