ignition and control module. 
When the hot water tap is closed and water flow through the appliance has stopped the burner flame will extinguish.

module 

A long life 1.5 Volt  "D" size battery is supplied 

with the appliance and should have been fitted by 

your installer. 

If the battery runs flat, replace it with a new 1.5 

Volt    "D"  size  battery.  Long  life  batteries  are 

recommended.  The  battery  compartment  is 

located  on  the  left  hand  side  at  the  bottom  of 

the  appliance.  Approximate  battery  life  is  6  to 

12  months.  Actual  battery  life  may  be  different 

depending on individual hot water usage patterns.

1. 

Locate  the  battery  compartment  and  open 

the  hinged  lid  (opens  towards  the  rear  of 

appliance).

2. 

Remove the expired battery and replace it 

with a new battery ensuring that the correct 

polarity  is  observed,  as  is  shown  on  the 

inside of the battery compartment lid.

3. 

Close the battery compartment lid.

DELIVERY TEMPERATURE

The delivery temperature set point programmed into the electronic ignition and control module is 60°C. 
The actual delivery temperature may be lower depending on the prevailing operating conditions, for example, low 

incoming cold water temperatures and high water flow rates.
