To empty the water heater proceed as follows:
■
Disconnect the overflow pipe from the drain con-
nection (79) and connect a hose to a draining-
pump instead. Where no draining pump is avail-
able, the water can be released into the overflow
cup (99).
■
Open the safety valve (47).
■
Open a hot water tap to let air into the system. If
this is not enough, undo a pipe coupling (74) on
the hot water side and pull out the pipe.
The hot water can be drained off through drain valve
(51) using an R15 (1/2") hose coupling. Remove the
cover (80) from the valve. Now screw on the hose
coupling and open valve (51).
Open safety valve (52) to let air into the system.
