1.2 Safety instructions for users

WARNINGS

| The appliance may be used by children older than 8 years old, elderly persons, and persons with physical, sensory, or mental disabilities or lacking experience and knowledge, if they are under supervision or taught about the safe use of the appliance and if they are aware of the potential dangers.
| Children shall not play with the appliance.
| Children shall not clean or perform maintenance on the appliance without supervision.
| Installation shall be carried out in accordance with the valid regulations and according to the instructions of the manufacturer and by qualified staff.
| In a closed, pressurised system of installation, it is obligatory to install a safety valve on the system with rated pressure of max. 0.3 MPa (3 bar) (see the label), which prevents the elevation of pressure in the buffer by more than 0.1 MPa (1 bar) above the rated pressure.
| The outlet of the safety valve shall be installed facing downwards and in a non-freezing area.
| To ensure the proper functioning of the safety valve, the user shall perform regular controls to remove the limescale and make sure the safety valve is not blocked.
| Do not install a stop valve between the buffer and the safety valve, because it will impair the pressure protection of the buffer!
| If the system has to be switched off, please drain any water from the buffer to prevent freezing.
| Please do not try to fix any defects of the buffer on your own. Call the nearest authorized service provider.
