Safety before operating

warning

For your safety, please read before operating

•  Check the 

GAS

 and 

WATER CONNECTIONS

 for leaks 

before using it for the first time. 

•  Open the main gas supply valve to the water heater  

using only your hand to avoid any spark.  Never  use tools. 
If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to force it; call 
a qualified service technician. Forced repair may result in 
a fire or explosion due to gas leaks.   

•  Be sure to check next to the bottom of the water heater 

because some gases are heavier than air and  may settle 
towards the floor. 

•  Check the 

GAS PRESSURE

.   

•  Do not try to light the burner manually. It is equipped with 

an electronic ignition device which automatically lights 
the burner. 

•  Check for 

PROPER VENTING

 and 

COMBUSTIBLE AIR

 to 

the heater. 

•  Purge the 

GAS and WATER LINES

 to remove any air pockets.  

•  Do not use this water heater if any part has been 

submersed in water. Immediately call a qualified service 
technician to inspect the water heater and to replace any 
damaged parts.  

•  If this water heater is a 70°C model installed as part of 

a gas boosted solar hot water system, please refer to 
the user manual supplied with that system for safety 
regarding the relief valves installed to limit temperature, 
pressure and energy.

Ensure the following safety instructions are read and 
understood before using this water heater.

warning

Water temperatures above 50°C can cause severe burns, 
scalding or death. Feel the water temperature before 
bathing or showering. Do not leave children unsupervised. 
The Australian Standards AS3498 provides full details of 
the requirements for the supply of controlled temperatures 
to bathrooms and is required to be conformed to under all 
Australian plumbing codes.

•  Do not store or use gasoline or other flammables, 

vapours or liquids in the vicinity of the gas continuous 
flow hot water system.

•  Do not reverse the water and/or gas connections as this 

will cause damage to the gas valves, and may also cause 
severe injury or death. 

•  Do not use this water heater if it has at any stage been 

immersed in water. Immediately call a licensed plumber, 
gas fitter or authorized technician to inspect and/or 
service the system.

•  Do not disconnect the electrical supply if the ambient 

temperature drops below freezing. The Freeze Protection 
System only works when the water heater is connected to 
the power. The warranty is void if the heat exchanger is 
damaged as a result of freezing.

•  This hot water system is not intended for use by persons 

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or 
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, 
unless they have been given supervision or instruction 
concerning use of the hot water system by a person 
responsible for their safety.

•  Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not 

play with the hot water system.
