Appliance Safety instructions

PROPER VENTILATION

To avoid the risk of fire, explosion, or  
asphyxiation never operate the gas geyser 
unless it is installed properly and has 
adequate air supply. Make sure the flue 
terminal is installed properly for the initial 
start-up, check it annually thereafter.

FLAMMABLE MATERIALS

DO NOT handle, use or store combustible 
materials near to the gas geyser. 

WEATHER BOX AND FLUE

This geyser should be installed with a cover 
under all cicumstances. A flue can be used 
with a cowl but is not a reqirement for the 
geyser to operate normally. 

WATER TEMPERATURE 

SETTING 

 

Safety and energy savings need to be 
considered when setting the water 
temperature . Water temperatures above 
52°C can cause severe burns.  

Refer to page 16.

1.  Households with small children, disabled 

or elderly people need to set the 

temperature to 49°C or lower

2. Maximum water temperature occurs 

when the burner is on.  To see the water 

temperature look at the front control 

panel of the gas geyser.

3. The Factory default water setting is 41°C 

and this setting can be adjusted on the 

control panel. 

4. The gas geyser has a heating range 

between 38°C and 60°C.
