2. Safety
2.1 Intended use
The appliance is intended for installation in cylinders in a sealed
heating or DHW heating system.
This appliance is designed for domestic use. It can be used safely
by untrained persons. The appliance can also be used in a non-
domestic environment, e.g. in a small business, as long as it is
used in the same way.
Any other use beyond that described shall be deemed inappropri-
ate. Observation of these instructions is also part of the correct
use of this appliance. Any modifications or conversions to the
appliance void all warranty rights.
It is also incorrect to use the appliance to heat liquids other than
water, or water containing chemicals such as brine.

WARNING Injury
The appliance may be used by children aged 8 and up
and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or a lack of experience provided that they
are supervised or they have been instructed on how to
use the appliance safely and have understood the result-
ing risks. Children must never play with the appliance.
Children must never clean the appliance or perform user
maintenance unless they are supervised.
Note
While the threaded immersion heater is in use, the cyl-
inder is under mains water pressure.
During the heating process, expansion water will drip
from the safety valve. If water continues to drip when
heating is completed, please inform your heating con-
tractor.

The temperature is infinitely adjustable. Temperature selection is
limited at the factory and can be adjusted by the heating contractor
(see chapter “Installation / Settings”).
You can interrupt the heating process by setting the temperature
selector to “cold” (see figure).
5. Cleaning, care and maintenance
f
f
If the appliance is installed in a DHW heating system, please
note that almost every type of water deposits limescale at
high temperatures. Limescale builds up on the heating ele-
ment in particular and has to be removed occasionally by the
heating contractor.
f
f
Always take the increased anode wear into consideration
when using the threaded immersion heater in cylinders with
protective magnesium anodes. Protective anodes and heat-
ing elements should be checked after approx. one year.
f
f
Regularly activate the safety valve to prevent it from becom-
ing blocked e.g. by limescale deposits.
