3. Appliance description
The appliance electrically heats domestic hot water, with the tem-
perature controlled via the temperature selector. Subject to the
power supply, the water is heated automatically to the required
temperature. You can use the appliance to supply one or several
draw-off points.
The steel cylinder is coated on the inside with special directly ap-
plied enamel and is equipped with a thermometer and a protective
anode. The anode with consumption indicator protects the cylin-
der interior from corrosion. The cylinder is enclosed by thermal
insulation and a casing.
The appliance is also protected against frost on the temperature
setting "cold" as long as the power supply is guaranteed. The ap-
pliance switches on in good time and heats the water. The water
supply line and the safety assembly are not protected against frost
by the appliance.
4. Settings
The temperature is infinitely adjustable. Depending upon the sys-
tem, the temperatures may vary from the set value.

Temperature selection is limited in the delivered condition. This
limitation can be cancelled by a qualified contractor (see chapter
"Installation / Settings").
5. Cleaning, care and maintenance
f
Have the electrical safety of the appliance and the func-
tion of the safety assembly regularly checked by a heating
contractor.
f
Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp
cloth is sufficient for cleaning the appliance.

Material damage
If the consumption indicator changes colour from white
to red, have the signal anode checked by a heating con-
tractor and if necessary replaced.

Scaling
Almost every type of water deposits lime at high temperatures.
This settles inside the appliance and affects both the performance
and service life. The heating elements must therefore be descaled
from time to time. A qualified contractor who knows the local
water quality will tell you when the next service is due.
f
Check the taps/valves regularly. You can remove limescale
deposits at the tap outlets using commercially available des-
caling agents.
f
Regularly activate the safety valve to prevent it from becom-
ing blocked e.g. by limescale deposits.
6. Troubleshooting
Fault
Cause
Remedy
The water does not heat
up.
There is no power.
Check the fuses/MCBs in
your fuse box.
The flow rate is low.
The aerator in the tap or
shower head is scaled up
or contaminated.
Clean and/or descale the
aerator or shower head.
If you cannot remedy the fault, notify your heating contractor. To
facilitate and speed up your enquiry, please provide the serial
number from the type plate (no. 000000-0000-000000):
