ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER
6
WARNING
This water heater is only intended to be operated by persons who have the experience or the knowledge and
the capabilities to do so. This water heater is not intended to be operated by persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities i.e. the infirm or by children. Children should be supervised to ensure they do
not interfere with the water heater.
The water heater uses 240 Volt AC electrical power for operation of the control systems and the combustion
fan. The removal of the front panel will expose 240 V wiring. It must only be removed by an authorised or
qualified person.
The power lead from the water heater must be plugged into a weatherproof electrical outlet. Take care not to
touch the power plug with wet hands.
SAFETY
This water heater is supplied with temperature sensors, a FlameSafe™ protection system and a pressure
relief valve. These devices must not be tampered with or removed. The water heater must not be operated
unless each of these devices is fitted and is in working order.
If the power supply cord or plug is damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised person in order to avoid a
hazard. The power supply cord and plug must be replaced with a genuine replacement part available from
your nearest Service Department or Accredited Service Agent.
The warranty can become void if relief valves or other safety devices are tampered with or if the
installation is not in accordance with these instructions.
Do not store
flammable or combustible materials
near
the water heater. Flammable liquids (such as petrol),
newspapers and similar articles must be kept well away
from the water heater and the flue terminal.
Do not use
aerosols, stain removers and household
chemicals
near the water heater whilst it is working. Gases
from some aerosol sprays, stain removers and household
chemicals become corrosive when drawn into a flame.
Do not store
swimming pool chemicals, household
cleaners,
etc., near the water heater.
Do not place anything on top of the water heater or in
contact with the flue terminal. Ensure the flue terminal is not
obstructed in any way at any time.
Do not use Propane / Butane gas mixtures in a Propane model. A Propane model is designed to operate
on Propane only. The use of Propane / Butane mixture, such as automotive LPG fuel, in a Propane
model is unsafe and can cause damage to the water heater.
