Appliance description

The DHW is heated via a smooth tube internal indirect coil. You
can use the appliance to supply one or more draw-off points.
The appliance is equipped with an inspection flange and ther-
mometer.
The steel cylinder is coated on the inside with special directly
applied "anticor ® " enamel and equipped with a protective anode.
This anode protects the inside of the cylinder from corrosion. The
cylinder is surrounded by foam insulation and a painted sheet
metal casing.
4.

Cleaning, care and maintenance

f Have the function of the safety assembly and electrical safe- f
ty of the fitted accessories regularly checked by a qualified
contractor.
f Have the protective anode checked by a qualified contractor f
after the first two years of use. The qualified contractor will
then determine the intervals at which repeat checks should
be performed.
f Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp f
cloth is sufficient for cleaning the appliance.
4.1

Scaling

Almost every type of water will deposit limescale at high tem-
peratures. This settles inside the appliance and affects both per-
formance and service life. If a threaded immersion heater is in-
stalled, the heating elements must be descaled from time to time.
A qualified contractor who knows the local water quality will tell
you when the next service is due.
f Check the taps regularly. Limescale deposits at the tap out- f
lets can be removed using commercially available descaling
agents.
5.

Troubleshooting

Problem Cause
The flow rate is low. The aerator in the tap
or the shower head is
scaled up or dirty.
If you cannot remedy the fault, notify your qualified contractor.
To facilitate and speed up your enquiry, please provide the serial
number from the type plate (no. 000000-0000-000000):
Remedy

aerator or shower head.
