General safety instructions

WARNING Burns
During operation, the tap and safety valve can reach
temperatures in excess of 60 °C.
There is a risk of scalding at outlet temperatures in ex-
cess of 43 °C.
WARNING Injury
!
The temperature selector should only be removed by a
qualified contractor.
WARNING Injury
!
The appliance may be used by children aged 8 and older
and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or a lack of experience and know-how, pro-
vided that they are supervised or they have been in-
structed on how to use the appliance safely and have
understood the resulting risks. Children must never play
with the appliance. Children must never clean the ap-
pliance or perform user maintenance unless they are
supervised.
Where children or persons with limited physical, sensory or men-
tal abilities are allowed to use this appliance, we recommend a
permanent temperature limit. A qualified contractor can set this
limit.
Material losses
!
The user should protect the appliance, the water pipes,
the safety valve and the tap against frost.
Material losses
!
If the drain pipe of the safety valve is sealed, expanding
water can lead to water damage.
f Never close the drain pipe. f

Test symbols

See type plate on the appliance.
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.

Cleaning, care and maintenance

f Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp f
cloth is sufficient for cleaning the appliance.
f Check the taps regularly. Limescale deposits at the tap out- f
lets can be removed using commercially available descaling
agents.
f Regularly activate the safety valve to prevent it from becom- f
ing blocked, e.g. by limescale deposits.
f Have the protective anode checked by a qualified contractor f
after the first 2 years of operation. The qualified contractor
will then determine the intervals at which it must be checked
thereafter.
Almost every type of water will deposit limescale at high temper-
atures. This settles inside the appliance and affects both the per-
formance and service life. The heating elements should therefore
be descaled if necessary. A qualified contractor who is aware of
the local water quality will tell you when the next descaling is due.
