Safety

Intended use

This product is intended for operation with an open vented (non-pressurised) mini instantaneous water heater.
This product is designed for domestic use. It can be used safely by untrained persons. The appliance can also be used in a non-domestic environment, e.g. in a small business, as long as it is used in the same way.
Any other use beyond that described shall be deemed inappropriate. Observation of these instructions is also part of the correct use of this appliance.

General safety instructions

| WARNING Burns
During operation, the tap can reach temperatures in excess of 60 °C.
There is a risk of scalding at outlet temperatures in excess of 43 °C.
---|---
| Material losses
Whilst the water in the instantaneous water heater is being heated, expansion water will drip from the spout. Scale build-up can block the spout and thus subject the instantaneous water heater to pressure.
• Never block the spout and only use the original aerator
