3. Appliance description
The appliance constantly keeps the water content available at the
preselected temperature. The appliance switches on automatically
as soon as its temperature falls below the set value.
Subject to season, varying cold water temperatures can result in
different maximum mixed water and outlet volumes.
Note
A qualified contractor can set a temperature limit on the
appliance (see "Installation / Settings / Setting the tem-
perature limit").
Note
The appliance is under mains water pressure. The water
volume increases as the cylinder is being heated up. Dur-
ing this process, expansion water drips through the safety
valve. This is a necessary and normal process.
3.1 Settings
You can set any required DHW outlet temperature at the tem-
perature selector. The heat-up indicator illuminates during the
heat-up process.
