II. Wall mounting

There are two ways in which the continuous-flow heater can be mounted on the wall:

• Using the mounting bolt. Unevenness in the wall up to a depth of 25mm can be compensated for.
• Making use of the holes that were drilled for the old heater: Use the mounting template to establish whether the existing holes line up properly.

The following describes the installation procedure using the mounting bolt.

Marking the point for mounting the heater and selecting the opening for the connecting cable (Fig. A)

Important! Make sure that the connecting cable is isolated from the mains electricity supply!

Place hole 3 in the mounting template over the cold-water inlet.
Select the most suitable hole through which the connecting cable is be fed. The connecting cable must pass through one of the six holes marked 14... Terminal BZ45Z20M can be used if the cable is fed into the water heater through one of the bottom holes marked 14a.
■ Mark the point 12 at which the mounting bolt is to be inserted.

Operating instructions

Please read and observe the detailed safety instructions at the start of these instructions!

- Important: The appliance may never be exposed to frost!

Risk of electric shock!

Switch off the mains voltage supply immediately if a fault occurs.

- Immediately shut off the cold water supply to the appliance should it leak.

Getting to know your appliance

The continuous-flow heater heats the water as it flows through the appliance. The appliance only consumes power during this period.

This appliance can supply hot water to taps in several different locations. It should be installed close to the tap that is used the most frequently. This will enable you to reduce energy consumption.

Operating the appliance

The continuous-flow heater has two power settings:

e Economy setting – two thirds power

II Intensive setting – full power

The e setting is ideal for:

Wash basin

Shower

Bidet

II setting should be used where a higher temperature or a larger volume of water is required, e. g.

Dishwashing

Cleaning

Bath tub

If you are using a thermostat-controlled mixer tap, set the heater to II.

1. Set the heater to either e or II, as required.
2. Turn on the hot-water tap.

The continuous-flow heater switches on automatically and heats the water as it flows through the appliance.

The heater switches off again when you turn off the tap.

Increasing the water temperature

When the tap is turned on fully, it is possible that the heater capacity is not sufficient to heat the water to the required temperature.

Slightly close the hot-water tap. The water flows through the appliance more slowly and reaches a higher temperature as a result.

Decreasing the water temperature

Mix with cold water.

Note about operation

When a hot-water tap is turned on by only a small amount, the continuous-flow heater operates at half power regardless of which setting (e, II) has been selected.

When a hot-water tap is turned on fully, the appliance operates at the maximum level of power that corresponds to whichever setting has been selected.

Saving energy

- Please use economy setting "e" as often as possible.

To minimise energy consumption when turning off the hot water:

• Turn off the hot-water tap slowly in order to use the residual heat of the continuous-flow heater.
• This also prevents the water temperature from briefly increasing above the preselected temperature if the hot-water tap is turned on again within the next few minutes.

To obtain particularly uniform hot-water temperatures, it is recommended to use thermostat-controlled mixer taps.

The thermostat-controlled mixer tap must be suitable for hydraulically controlled continuous-flow heater.

Winter operation

Note: It is possible in winter that the supply temperature of the water is reduced and the required outlet temperature is no longer achieved.

In order to compensate for this temperature reduction, please reduce the water quantity on the tap until the required water temperature is achieved.

Cleaning

■ Simply wipe the appliance with a damp cloth.

Do not use acidic or abrasive cleaning materials.

Notes: It is normally not necessary to descale the appliance. However, extremely hard water and the frequent flows of very hot water can cause the appliance to scale up. In this case please contact our after-sales service.

A fault, what to do?

Attention!

Repairs must only be carried out by an authorised technician. Improper repairs can lead to risk of serious injury to the user.

If your appliance does not operate as required, it is often due to a very minor problem. Please check whether you can remedy the fault yourself by using the following guidelines. You will save yourself the costs of an unnecessary visit by customer service personnel.

The water does not heat up or not enough water flows out of the tap:

• Check the fuse in the fusebox.
• Drop in pressure in the water mains. If the pressure is too low, the appliance will not switch on.
  The strainer on the tap or shower head is blocked. Unscrew the strainer and either clean or descale it.
  The corner valve is clogged. Turn on the hot-water tap fully and open and close the corner valve several times. Then clean the filter in the water tap.
  The heater needs descaling. Arrange for a service engineer to visit.

The continuous-flow heater switches off during the drawing-off of water, resulting in a reduction in the watertemperature:

The washer inside the hot-water tap must be a non-swelling type.

If you cannot resolve the problem yourself, switch off the heater via the fuse in the domestic wiring. Arrange for a service engineer to visit.

After-sales service

If you call the after-sales service for assistance, please specify the E no. and FD no. of your appliance.

These numbers can be found on the underside of the continuous-flow heater.
