5. Setup & Operation
Never switch on the water heater without water.
Before switching on, open the hot water taps, vent the pipes of air
and fill the appliance.
Check the water tightness of the pipe work and the door seal below the cover. In case of a leak, tighten slightly. Check
that the water safety devices are working and fill the drain.
Switch on the appliance. After 5
–
20 minutes, depending
on the capacity of the appliance, water should drip from the drain hole. This phenomenon is due to water
expansion and is normal.
Check the water tightness of the joints and the seal. During heating and depending on water
quality, room-sealed water heaters can produce a boiling noise; this is normal and does
not indicate any defect on the
appliance. To avoid the development of bacteria (legionella…) ensure that a temperature of 60°C is reached every day.
The thermostat is set at the factory at the stop (65°C+- 5°C).
If steam or boiling water emerges continuously from a supply tap or a drain valve, switch off the electricity to
the water heater or boiler and call a professional plumbing contractor
6. Maintenance
User maintenance:
Operates once a month the discharge of the water safety device to prevent scaling and
verify that it is not blocked.
If this is not done, damage may be caused and the guarantee invalidated. .
Maintenance by a qualified person:
6.1
Remove the scale sludge. Do not scrape or hammer the lime scale deposited on the casing, as this may damage the
lining.
6.2
Change the magnesium anode every 2 years or when its diameter is lower than 10 mm.
6.3
Changing the shielded heating element or the anode requires the water heater to be drained and the joint changed.
DRAIN: Switch off the power and cold water and open the hot water taps before carrying out these operations. Refit the
heating element and tighten the screws smoothly (opposite screws in sequence), check for leaks the next day and
tighten if required. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.
