conventional electric geysers and solar systems.
To dissipate this gas safely, it is recommended
that a sink hot tap be turned on for several
minutes. Do not use a dishwasher, clothes
washer or other appliance for this purpose.
During this procedure there must be no smoking,
open flames or any electrical appliance operating
nearby. If hydrogen is discharged through the tap
it will make an unusual sound like air escaping.
It is recommended that if the system is going to
be left unused for long periods of time, that the
backup element switched off at the distribution
board. Remember that when the geyser breaker
is reactivated the time clock may have to be reset
as it has a limited settings memory when
switched off (i.e. approximately 72 hours
depending on the model).

No freeze protection liquid is used in the Novasun
system.

Setting the time clock
WE Geysers (Pty) Ltd recommends that an SABS
approved time clock, with battery backup, be
installed on the distribution board. There are many
such time clocks on the market and the operation
of which are all relatively similar. A Samite QAT-R-
DM time clock has been selected to illustrate how
to program the time clock.
This time clock has four different screens. When it
is powered up screen 1 (main screen) appears.
SCREEN 1:
Actual Time Indicator
This ON/OFF indicator indicates whether the time
clock is currently active or not. This screen also
displays the current actual time.
Press the green function button to cycle forward to
the next screen.
SCREEN 2:
Set Actual Time
Press the Hour and Minute buttons to set the actual
time. Once the time is set press the function button
to advance to the next screen.
