Installation Instructions
THE GUARANTEE IS SUBJECT TO CORRECT INSTALLATION.
The instant water heater is a novel appliance designed to supply hot water
instantly while conserving energy. When the pressure switch is on, then the
heating element heats the flowing water.
General information
- The appliance must be installed and commissioned by a qualified technician in accordance with established regulations and local health and safety regulations.
- It is recommended that a residual current device(ELCB)will be incorporated in the circuit.
- Installation of water pipeline must be completed prior to the installation of the heater and must be checked to assure that there are no water leaks.
- This appliance requires water pressure of minimum 20 kPa (0.2 bar).
- WARNING! The outlet (with red ring) of the product acts as a vent and must not be connected to anything other than the hose and showerhead supplied.
- Without supervision the use of the appliance by young children or infirm person is forbidden.Playing with the unit by young children is forbidden.
Installation of sink & shower unit 3.5 kW – 7.7 kW
- The shower unit should be installed on the wall.
- Remove cover in order to connect the electric cable to the terminal block inside the unit.(unscrew 2 screws)
- The unit should have a separate electric cable in the switch board (see table 2)
- Connect the appliance to the water network by means of a faucet and check if there are no leaks as soon as the unit is connected. Use the hoses supplied with the appliance, do not re-use old hoses
- After connecting the water inlet to the unit, connect the electric cable to the designed terminal blocks. The appliance must be earthed and the earth cable (show with a letter in the drawing) is fixed to the terminal marked by the symbol WARNING! The appliance must be grounded
- Use a two-pole switch conforming with national laws in force (contact gap of at least 3 mm, preferably equipped with fuses) to disconnect the appliance’s power supply
- Before performing any operations, disconnect the appliance from the Incorrect Installation electricty mains using the external switch then connect the power to cable to the appliance.
- Connect the electric cable with the designated clamp.
- Return the cover (2 screws)
ATTENTION: The water inlet of this appliance shall not be connected to inlet water obtained from any other water heating system
WARNING: If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
For effective use
-
Turn the water faucet (before inlet pipe) slowly until the lamps in the appliance switch “ON”. Wait 15-20 seconds until hot water starts to flow. For colder water, turn the faucet increasing the water inflow gradually until you receive the desired water temperature. For hotter water, turn the faucet decreasing the water inflow.
-
Heating setting:
- OFF – Power is off
- Low – Only the 1st Heating element switches on (left light on)
- Med – Only the 2nd heating element switches on (Right light on)
- High – 1st and 2nd heating elements switch on, working together (both lights on)
-
In AURES SLIM FLOW model, the user can manage the temperature selecting Heating knob and regulating the water flow through water flow knob. The water flow knob allows to regulate the water flow reaching the desired water temperature. Turning left the water flow knob, the water flow increases and temperature decreases. Turning right the water flow knob, the water flow decreases and temperature increases. In AURES SLIM DISPLAY, in addition to AURES SLIM FLOW, the user will see visualized on the product the outlet water temperature
-
The spray outlet should be cleaned periodically by unscrewing it from the showerhead and clean thoroughly. (Fig.2, Fig.4)
-
In order to achieve maximum efficiency from the unit please grip the showerhead and twist it in either direction to increased or decreased flow – 3 positions (Fig.3).
For sink unit – Install open rings in summer and blind rings in winter (inner ring should
remain always open) (Fig.4). -
The unit operates automatically by opening the water faucet and shut off when closing the water supply
This product conforms to Directive WEEE 2012/19/EU.
The symbol of the crossed waste paper basket on the ap pliance indicates that
at the end of its working life the pro duct should be disposed of separately
from normal domestic household rubbish, it must be disposed of at a waste
dispo sal center with dedicated facilities for electric and electronic
appliances or returned to the retailer when a new replace ment product is
purchased. The user is responsible for the disposal of the product at the end
of its life at an appropriate waste disposal center. The waste disposal center
(which using special treatment and recycling processes effectively dismantles
and disposes of the appliance) helps to protect the environment by recy cling
the material from which the product is made. For further information about
waste disposal systems visit your local waste disposal center or the retailer

Troubleshooting
| SYMPTOM | POSSIBLE CAUSE | SOLUTION |
|---|---|---|
| Water not hot enough | Too much water flowing through the heater |
Reduction In tha ambient temperature
Water Pressure below of 100 kPa
Electrical Malfunction
| Reduce the flow rate of the water via the outlet tap.
Switch to higher temperature setting.
Check if the mains stop valve is fully open and that the there are no other restriction in the supply line.
Have the Heater unit check by a qualified eIectrician or contact your local authorised distributor.
Water too hot| Not enough Water flowing through the heater
Increase in the ambient temperature
| Increase the flow rate via the outlet tap Switch to lower temperature
setting
Heater switch Off during use| Interruption of mains electrical supply
ELSD trip, possible earth leakage
| Check incoming power supply, MCB, switches and supply cabling. Check earth leakage and reset ELSD
If problem persists, call your local authorised distributor for assistance.
Water ceases to flow| Blockage of spray head, twisted or blocked flexible shower hose.
No water supply.
| Clean or replace spray head, check for free passage of water through hose. Replace as necessary.
Check water supply, stop valve Open? and no blockage.
Water temperature varies from hot to cold during use| Water pressure has
dropped below min. level.| Increase hot water supply,
No hot water despite fully open hot water faucet| No electrical power
The activation flow rate needed to turn on the heating element has not been reached.
| Check the circuit breaker and check voltage at the wiring block.
Clean filter screen
• Turn circuit breaker off
