INTRODUCTION

1. Introduction to the product

1.1. Regulations relating to transportation, storage and recycling

1. The appliance must be transported in accordance with the pictograms printed on the packaging.
2. The appliance must be transported and stored in dry conditions where it will not be subjected to freezing.
3. The EU Directive 2002/96/EC sets out the obligation to perform separated waste collection and to recycle all electrical and electronic equipment.

GB

The “crossed-out dustbin” symbol on the appliance indicates that when the product is no longer in good working condition, it should not be disposed of in the same manner as normal household waste. Instead, it should be taken to a separated waste collection centre which deals with electrical and electronic equipment or reclaimed by the distributor when a new appliance has been purchased to replace it.

Separated waste collection, which ensures the appliance is recycled once it has reached the end of its life cycle, helps to avoid any negative effects on the environment and encourages the recycling of the individual materials used to manufacture the appliance.

To find out more about existing waste collection centres, please contact the waste collection service in your local area, or the shop from which the appliance was originally purchased. 4. The packaging protects the water heater from any damage which may occur during transportation. We use materials which have been specifically selected in order to help protect the environment. We invite you to take these materials to the nearest recycling centre or the nearest recyclable materials collection point.

3. Water connection

1. The operating pressure is indicated on the data plate of the water heater (see water heater).
2. Connection with materials synthesis PER are prohibit: flood risk

To connect the tank on plastic pipe "PER" installation existent, intercalate on the out-let (hot water) a copper pipe with minimum longer 50 cm to avoid any damage.

The connection of a water heater to copper piping must be performed using a dielectric connection. These dielectric connections are available as an optional extra or as standard, depending on the model purchased.

If you only have one dielectric connector, you must fit it to the hot water outlet!

1. When the input pressure of the network is greater than 4.5 bar, a pressure reducer must be

installed upstream of the safety assembly.

1. If the water systems have the following features:

small pipes;
- taps with ceramic plates / mixer taps; a “ram stabilising” device or a domestic hot water expansion vessel suited to the system must be installed as close as possible to the taps.

We recommend that a shut-off valve is installed upstream from the safety assembly.

See pictures 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 12.

4.3. STAB MT stable model

The 200-250 & 300 litre stable models are already wired in 230 V single-phase when they are shipped. They may be wired at 230 V THREE-PHASE or 400 V THREE-PHASE (see scheme of electrical connections on apparatus).

The 500 litre stable model is wired at 400 V three-phase at the company.

Electrical connection of the appliance should only be performed using the thermostat terminals or the terminal board of the appliance.

ANY DIRECT CONNECTION TO THE HEATING ELEMENT IS HAZARDOUS ANS IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.

4.4. PROfessional TECH (PTEC) and HPC - QUIE

The boiler protection anode is controlled by a P.C.B. powered at the network current or using a battery designed for systems operating in day/night mode, in order to keep the boiler protected during the day. Correct operation of the protection system REQUIRES A PERMANENT POWER SUPPLY (network or batteries). The appliance cannot, in fact, be left without a power supply for more than 48 hours.

① Night-time power supply + batteries

➢ Heating element ⇒ Night-time power supply (exclusive or dual timer schedule) (Picture 13).
➢ PROfessional TECH → Operation with batteries.*

* Electric water heaters, designed for a night-time power supply, are fitted with Ni-Mh batteries which are charged every night, thereby protecting the boiler during the day.

CAUTION:

The batteries do not have an indefinite lifespan: it makes good sense to replace them once they have been used for one or two years.

In order to guarantee full boiler protection, any faulty batteries must be replaced. If the batteries are not replaced, the guarantee will become void.

OPERATION

1. Introduction

1.1.User considerations

1. The installation of the water heater is the responsibility of the purchaser.
2. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
3. The end user is responsible for recycling the appliance once it can no longer be used. For further information, please consult the introduction of this booklet 1.1. – Regulations relating to transportation, storage and recycling.

2. Operating advice

2.1. Temperature adjustment

We recommend the thermostat is not set to its maximum position, in order to avoid limescale build-up and prevent burns. It is nevertheless essential to find a suitable compromise so as to avoid bacterial proliferation while trying to prevent the water heater from experiencing unnecessary limescale build-up.

On the other hand, in order to prevent burns, a suitable mixer should be used so that the temperature does not exceed 50^ C at any of the drawing points. This is a compulsory regulation in France.

Advice When using a mixer at a drawing point, we recommend that the temperature is set to approximately 60^ C.

2.2. Maintenance

➢ Empty the appliance annually (twice a year if the water has been treated with a softening agent) in order to:

1. check the condition of the magnesium anode;
2. remove all deposits inside the boiler.
   Contact your installer.

2.3. Indicator lights

2.3.a. PROfessional TECH steatite range The boiler protection anode is controlled by a P.C.B. powered at the network current or using a battery designed for systems operating in day/night mode, in order to keep the boiler protected during the day. The PROfessional TECH system cannot be left without a power supply for over 48 hours.

Green indicator light : light ON or flashing light = 👍

Light OFF = 📋 anti-corrosion protection defect : replace the battery NIMH 9V. If the defect goes on, contact your installer.

Orange indicator light: Light ON= under heating Light OFF = out of heating

If connected to the mains with a dual timer schedule or exclusive night-time schedule (only for models with battery), the green indicator light switches on but is very weak for the first 48 hours in accordance with the charge status of the battery. Check the indication light after 48 hours of operation.

Advice In order to guarantee full boiler protection (green light illuminated), any faulty batteries must be replaced.

If the batteries are not replaced, the guarantee will become void. It makes good sense to replace them once they have been used for one or two years.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

1. Maintenance

Empty the appliance annually (twice a year if the water has been treated with a softening agent) in order to:

1. check the condition of the magnesium anode;
2. remove all deposits inside the boiler.
   We strongly recommend that the performance of the water softener is checked regularly. The residual hardness cannot be lower than 15^ f. A water hardness level which is too low will cause the guarantee to become void.

1.1. Emptying

➢ Cut off the electricity supply before performing any work on the appliance.
Shut off the cold water supply at the inlet.
➢ Open the hot water tap to draw water.
➢ Open the emptying valve on the safety assembly and the water will flow out of the drainage hole.

1.2. Build-up removal – Checking the anode

➢ Empty the appliance (see above).
➢ Remove the protection element and unscrew the base (some residual water may leak out).
➢ Clean the boiler: without using metal objects or chemical agents, remove any build-up on electrical elements or on the bush (steatite), on the corresponding casing and on the base of the boiler.
If a magnesium anode is used, check its condition: the magnesium anode is consumed progressively in accordance with the water quality, in order to prevent corrosion of the boiler. If the diameter is smaller than 15 mm (for the armoured range) / 10 mm (for the steatite range), or if the total volume is lower than 50% of the initial volume, the anode should be replaced.

➢ Use a new seal every time the base is replaced after being removed.

When screwing in the bolts again, use a "cross-tightening" technique. The tightening torque should be between 7 and 10 Nm.

② Replacing the heating element

Check the Ohmic value of the heating element and, if necessary, replace it. A null or an infinite value indicates that the heating element must be replaced.

Armoured range

The appliance must be emptied before the armoured heating element may be replaced. Steatite range – PROfessional TECH steatite range

It is not necessary to empty the appliance before replacing the heating element. During a Technical Assistance procedure for a steatite water heater, it is absolutely necessary to replace the plastic separator between the thermostat and the heating element in the water heater as this guarantees the correct operation of the appliance.

③ Replacing the electronic circuit

PROfessional TECH PTEC steatite range

Before performing any work, make sure you have isolated the appliance from the electricity supply network. The replacement of the electronic circuit is a very simple process. After removing the plastic protection:

➢ Disconnect the storage cell (press-fit connector on the storage cell).
➢ Disconnect the 2 wires running from the electronic circuit to the power supply terminal board.
➢ Disconnect the fast coupling connector with the false movement protection device which links the circuit to the boiler and the electrode.
➢ Disconnect the electronic circuit from the support (plastic material clips on the corners).
➢ Replace the faulty circuit with a new one. Repeat the procedure described above in the reverse order.

④ Replace the battery.

PROfessional TECH steatite range - HPC

The storage cell is replaced by disconnecting the press-fit connector and replacing the old storage cell with a new rechargeable one, Ni-Mh 9 volt 150 mAh minimum.
