•
Before obtaining access to terminals all supply circuits
must be disconnected.
•
A P&T valve
MUST
be installed in the tank. When the
tank pressure reaches 0.85MPa or when the tank
temperature reaches 99°C, the P&T valve will open
automatically so as to reduce the pressure or temperature
decrease.
•
In the event of the unit malfunctioning, shut off the
power supply and contact your supplier or EvoHeat.
•
In order to use the unit correctly, run the unit at
environment temperature
-5
°C - 4
3
°C
•
The unit contains sophisticated electronic devices, do
not use unsafe water sources such as lake or
groundwater.
•
The unit produces hot water and will also have hot
fittings, therefore should not be touched to avoid injury.

To reduce the risk of excessive pressures and temperatures in this water heater, install temperature and pressure protective
equipment required by local codes and no less than a combination temperature and pressure relief valve certified by a nationally
recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment or materials, as meeting the
requirements for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSIZ21.22. This valve must be
marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the marked maximum working pressure of the water heater. Install the valve
into an opening provided and marked for this purpose in the water heater, and orient it or provide tubing so that any discharge from
the valve exits only within 6 inches above, or at any distance below, the structural floor, and does not contact any live electrical
part. The discharge opening must not be blocked or reduced in size under any circumstances.
Hydrogen gas is produced in a hot water system served by this heater that has not been used for a long period of time (2 weeks or
more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To reduce the risk of injury under these conditions, it is recommended that the hot
water faucet be opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before using any electrical appliance.
The appliance is fitted with means for disconnection from the supply mains having a contact separation in all poles that provide full
disconnection under overvoltage category lll conditions, and these means must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance
with the wiring rules.
