Safety

Intended use

This open-vented (non-pressurized) appliance is designed for heating domestic hot water. The appliance can supply one draw-off point. The appliance is intended for domestic use. It can be used safely by untrained persons. The appliance can also be used in non-domestic environments, e.g. in small businesses, as long as it is used in the same way. Any other use beyond that described shall be deemed inappropriate. Observation of these instructions and of the instructions for any accessories used 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.

WARNING Injury
Only a qualified contractor is permitted to remove the temperature selector.

WARNING Injury
The appliance may be used by children over 8 years of age and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or a lack of experience and expertise, provided that they are supervised or have been instructed on how to use the appliance safely and have understood the potential risks. Children must never play with the appliance. Children must never clean the appliance or perform user maintenance unless they are supervised.

Where children or persons with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities are allowed to use this appliance, we recommend a permanent temperature limit. A qualified contractor can set this limit.

Appliance description

Material losses
The user should protect the appliance and its tap against frost.

Material losses
Never subject the appliance to water pressure. The tap outlet has a vent function. Scale build-up can block the outlet and subject the appliance to pressure.

• Never seal the tap outlet.
• Only use special aerators for non-pressurized water heaters.
• Never extend the tap outlet with a hose.

Material losses
Connecting the appliance via a time switch will cause an unintentional reset of the high limit safety cut-out. fever connects the appliance to the power supply via a time switch.

Test symbols
See the type plate on the appliance.

Appliance description
This open-vented (non-pressurized) appliance constantly maintains the water content at the pre-selected temperature. During heating, expansion water drips from the tap. The appliance may only be installed with taps for open vented (non-pressurized) water heaters (see chapter “Installation / Appliance description / Accessories”). Subject to season, varying cold water temperatures can result in different maximum amounts of the mixed outlet water.

Thermostop function
The thermostat function (thermal separation) of the ESH 10 U-N Trend prevents the tap from becoming hot in standby mode.

Operation
You can set any required DHW outlet temperature variably at the temperature selector. The heat-up indicator illuminates during the heat-up process .

1. Heat-up indicator
2. Temperature selector

Depending on the system, the actual temperatures may vary from the set value.

• Cold. In this setting, the appliance is protected from frost. The tap and the water line are not protected.
• Approx. 40 °C
• Recommended energy-saving setting (approx. 60 °C), minor scaling

Note
A qualified contractor can set a temperature limit on the appliance (see chapter “Installation / Settings / Setting the temperature limit”).

Cleaning, care, and maintenance

• Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning the appliance.
• Check the tap regularly. You can remove limescale deposits at the tap outlet using commercially available descaling agents.

Almost every type of water will deposit limescale at high temperatures. This settles inside the appliance and affects both performance and service life. The heating elements should therefore be descaled if necessary. A qualified contractor who is aware of the local water quality will tell you when the next descaling is due.

Troubleshooting

If you cannot remedy the fault, contact your qualified contractor. To facilitate and speed up your inquiry, please provide the serial number from the type plate (000000-0000-000000).

Safety

Only a qualified contractor should carry out installation, commissioning, maintenance and repair of the appliance.
