ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER

HOTTER WATER INCREASES THE RISK OF SCALD INJURY
This water heater can deliver water at temperatures which can cause scalding.
Check the water temperature before use, such as when entering a shower or
filling a bath or basin, to ensure it is suitable for the application and will not cause
scald injury.
We recommend and it may also be required by regulations that an approved
temperature limiting device be fitted into the hot water pipe work to the bathroom
and ensuite when this water heater is installed. This will keep the water
temperature below 50°C at the bathroom and ensuite. The risk of scald injury will
be reduced and still allow hotter water to the kitchen and laundry.
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Gas Control Temperature Dial
This water heater features a user adjustable thermostat (gas control) which
controls the stored water temperature. This is located behind the front access
cover on the lower front of the water heater. The temperature dial on the gas
control is used to control the water temperature inside of the storage cylinder.
The thermostat automatically controls the gas supply to the burner so a constant
water temperature is maintained within the storage cylinder. The thermostat is
fully automatic and the burner only operates when the water in the storage
cylinder requires heating. There is no need to switch the water heater off when it
is not in use, except perhaps when you are going away for an extended period.
The thermostat is adjustable up to
approximately 75°C. The temperature dial is
marked with numerals and each number
represents a temperature difference of
approximately 10°C. When aligned with the
temperature dial position indicator on the gas
control body, a setting of mid way between ‘3’
and ‘4’ will normally maintain the water
temperature at about 60°C.
To increase the water temperature to 75°C,
turn the temperature dial anticlockwise to a
setting of ‘5’. Refer to “Hotter Water Increases
the Risk of Scald Injury” on page 13.
