   Mount vertically on a flat surface (i.e. board or wall) larger than the unit itself. Make sure bracket is secure by utilizing a stud or the provided wall anchors. Keep away from any potential splashing or leaking water and strong magnetic fields.

2. Water Connections
   When installing your water connections make sure to use ¾” NPT fittings. Please use the provided gaskets to prevent leaks. When tightening fittings use a back-up wrench on inlet and outlet fittings <flat sides of fittings are located behind front cover). It is recommended to install a high pressure discharge valve and a shut off valve on the incoming water line, in that order. Open a faucet and run water through the unit for a few minutes to purge out air, turn off at faucet to build up pressure in the line to

3. Electrical Connections
   Wiring for electrical connection will differ depending on model please double check the model type on the right side of the unit.

4. Operation
   Unit is activated by the flow of water through the inlet. A desired temperature set point is selected by using the “up” or “down” buttons, if unit does not respond push the center “power” button and try again. Test water to prevent scalding.

WARNING
If your water heater requires a reset, be sure to TURN OFF THE BREAKERS prior to resetting the unit. Resetting your unit without turning off the breakers can result in personal injury and damage to your water heater. There is water contained in the coils of your water heater at all times. If your water heater is exposed to freezing temperatures, the water in the coils could freeze, causing a break in the heat exchanger of the unit, or the supply and return lines. This kind of damage will result in water running freely into the space where the water heater is located, which can cause flooding. DO NOT install this water heater where it may be subjected to a freeze. If your water heater is in an area where freezing is a possibility, you must turn off the water to the heater and drain it of any water by disconnecting the water lines. Leave the water lines disconnected until you intend to use the water heater.

How the Unit Works

1. This unit heats water instantaneously as it flows across the heating elements.
2. The electronic control monitors the flow rate and the incoming water temperature and then switches on the required number of heating elements to reach the set temperature.
3. The outlet water temperature will be higher than the setting if the minimum flow rate isn’t met. The outlet water temperature will be lower than the setting if the maximum flow rate is exceeded.

Using the Water Heater-Operation Instructions

• Turn on the water and allow it to run through the unit for a few minutes, until water flow is continuous and all air is purged from the water pipes.
• Check for and correct any leaking connections
• Turn on the circuit breakers to provide power to the unit.
