Appliance description

The appliance constantly keeps the water content available at the preselected temperature. The appliance switches on automatically as soon as its temperature falls below the set value. Subject to season, varying cold water temperatures can result in different maximum amounts of mixed outlet water.

Note
The appliance is under mains water pressure. The water volume increases as the cylinder is being heated up. During this process, expansion water drips through the safety valve. This is a necessary and normal process.

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

Cleaning, care and maintenance

• Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning the appliance.
• Check the taps regularly. Limescale deposits at the tap outlets can be removed using commercially available descaling agents.
• Have the function of the safety valve checked regularly by a qualified contractor.
• Have the protective anode checked by a qualified contractor after the first 2 years of operation. The qualified contractor will then determine the intervals at which repeat checks should be performed.

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

the appliance descaled by a qualified contractor
Water drips from the safety valve of the safety assembly after heating has stopped| The safety valve is scaled up or dirty| Switch the appliance off. Depressurise the appliance by disconnecting it from the power and water supply. Have the safety valve checked by a qualified contractor.

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