IMPORTANT RULES
•
Do not switch on the water heater until you are sure
that it is filled with water.
•
A suitably qualified person must perform the
connecting of the water heater to the water supply.
•
A suitably qualified electrician must perform the
connecting of the water heater to the electric network
(for models without a fitted plug).
•
Connecting the water heater to the electric mains via
a plug must only use the plug supplied
•
If the water-heater will not be used for longer than
3 days and the temperature in the premises could
drop below 4°C, the water in the water heater must
be drained to avoid any possible damage of the
appliance. (please observe the procedure outlined in
subsection 2)
•
During operation, the appliance may produce a
“hissing” noise (the boiling water). This is normal and
does not indicate any damage or a fault. This noise
may increase in volume over time as limescale is
deposited. To remove the noise, the appliance must
be de-scaled thoroughly. Failure to de-scale the
appliance regularly in hard water areas may impair its
performance and affect the warranty.
•
For safe operation, the safety return-valve must undergo
regular cleaning and inspection for normal functioning,
the valve must not be obstructed, and for the regions
with hard water it must be de-scaled as necessary. This
service is not provided under warranty maintenance.
•
All alterations and modifications to the water
heater‘s construction and electrical circuitry are
undertaken entirely at the purchaser’s risk and
are NOT recommended.
Any such alterations or
modifications may invalidate the appliance‘s
warranty.
•
Alterations and modifications shall include any
instances of removal of elements incorporated by the
manufacturer, building in additional components,
replacement of elements by those not approved by
the manufacturer.
•
If the power cord (of models that have one) is damaged,
it must be replaced immediately by an appropriately
qualified person, in order to avoid any risks
