▶ Remove front cover of tank (
▶ To do so, loosen the 4 screws [3] on the sides of the front cover.
▶ Remove front cover of tank [1] and the thermal insulation element
[2].

Descaling/cleaning the tank
▶ Check the DHW tank interior for scale deposits (calcium).
If scale deposits have formed in the DHW tank:
▶ Hose down the interior of the tank with a "high-pressure"
(~ 58...72.5 psi (~ 4...5 bar)) jet of cold water (
Fig. 17).
▶ Use a wet/dry vacuum with a plastic suction pipe to remove any
residues.
If extremely encrusted scale deposits have formed in the DHW tank:
▶ Hire someone to perform the chemical cleaning.

NOTICE:
Risk of tank damage due to damaged enamel.
▶ Never use hard objects or tools with sharp edges to
clean the interior of the tank
You can increase the cleaning effect by heating up the
heat exchanger in the drained tank before spraying out.
The thermal shock effect releases scale deposits more
easily from the coil-type heat exchanger.
WARNING:
Danger from improper use of the cleanser.
▶ Have a qualified contractor carry out the chemical
cleaning operation.
NOTICE:
The enamel layer may be damaged if the acid
is too strong.
▶ Have a qualified contractor carry out the chemical
cleaning operation.
