  1. Tankless, instantaneous heating for on-demand hot water, No pre-heating. No stand-by heating loss. energy-saving.
  2. Micro-computer control, Adopting patent heating technology. Water is completely separated from electricity by multi-layers of composite nano-insulation material.
  3. Over temperature protection: when the outlet water temp. reaches over 167°F /75°C, the electricity will be cut off to avoid getting scalded and the screen displays E1. the appliance will start to work automatically while temp. drop to the set temperature.
  4. Malfunction of sensor- when there is a malfunction with the inlet temperature sensor, the heater stops working and displays E3.
  5. Malfunction of sensor- when there is a malfunction with the outlet temperature sensor, the heater stops working and displays E4.
  6. Conversion between degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius.
