Description of appliance

1. Description of appliance

This instantaneous water heater is intended to provide the economical heating of water suffi- cient for a single outlet, i.e. handwash basin, and must be connected to a special open-outlet tap to avoid any overpressure. When the hot water tap is opened, the instantaneous water heater switches itself on auto- matically and heats the water as it passes through the appliance. It is only then that the appli- ance uses electricity. The temperature increase depends on the flow rate.

We assume no liability for any damag- es caused by failure to observe these instructions! Installation

2.1 Typical installation: vented (open) installationM 3..7

1. Position the instantaneous water heater with the water connectors vertically upwards for

direct connection to the tap.

2. Secure the wall bracket to the wall with suitable screws and dowels.

3. Place the appliance onto the wall bracket and snap it into position. Only use the appliance

if it is fitted correctly to the wall bracket. Fig. 4: “Installing the wall bracket”

4. Rinse the water pipes thoroughly before connecting them to the appliance.

5. Connect the water connectors with the relevant tap connectors. The water inlet is indicated

in blue on the rating plate (under the cover) and the water outlet in red. The heater is installed directly to the connecting pipes of the tap. We guarantee trouble-free operation of the instantaneous water heater only if CLAGE fittings and accessories are used. Note the following during installation:

• Installation must comply with DIN VDE 0100 and EN 806 and with the statutory regulations of the country and the provisions of the local electricity and water supply company.

• Check the technical data and information on the rating plate.

• Easy access to the instantaneous water heater must be guaranteed at all times for mainte- nance purposes. An separate shut-off valve must be installed.

• Only use the appliance with an open-outlet tap.

• Ensure that all accessories are removed from the packaging.

2.2 Installation instructions

2.3 Water connection

• The minimum requirements for the required water resistance must be complied with. The required water resistance of the can be obtained from your water supply company.

• This appliance is not suitable for warm water supply to showers.21 CLAGE

a. Seal b. Filter c. Cold water connection (inlet) d. Hot water connection (outlet) e. Rating plate cover Fig. 5: “Connecting the water pipes”

6. Make sure that the water pipes do not apply any kind of mechanical pressure on the instan-

taneous water heater.

7. Open the hot water valve of the tap and check all connections for leaks.

Fill the appliance with water by repeatedly opening and closing the hot water tap before connecting to electrical power and purge completely. The heating element may be damaged if this is not done!

Check that the power supply is switched off.

2. Make sure that the cross-section of the supply line corresponds to the details in the techni-

cal specifications of these instructions.

3. Ensure that the dimensions of the circuit breaker do correspond with the cross-section of

the connecting cable of the appliance and to the cross-section of the supply line.

4. Instantaneous water heater with plug:

a. Check that the socket is connected to the protective earth conductor. b. Plug the plug into the socket. Alternatively:

4. Instantaneous water heater without plug:

a. Note that according to VDE 0700, an all-pole disconnecting device with a contact open- ing width of ≥3mm per phase must be provided at the installation end. b. Connect the connecting pipe via a junction box to the mains, as shown in the circuit dia- gram.

4. Connection to a permanently installed cable:

a. Note that according to VDE 0700, an all-pole disconnecting device with a contact open- ing width of ≥3 mm per phase should be provided at the installation end. b. The cross-section of the cable must meet the requirements of the minimal cross-section, as mentioned in chapter “Technical specifications“. The maximum applicable cross-sec- tion is 6 mm

c. Open the cover. d. Dismount the pre-installed connection cable. e. Route the permanently installed cable through the grommet and connect it as shown in the circuit diagram. Make sure that the grommet fits tightly around the cable to ensure optimal protection against water. f. Refit the cover on the appliance. The earth conductor must be connected!

Installation Do not switch on the electric power at this time!

1. To purge the instantaneous water heater, open the hot water tap and wait until the water

emerges free of air bubbles.

2. In order to obtain an optimum water jet at low flow rates, screw the enclosed special tap

aerator into the tap outlet (M 22/24). Fig. 7: “Fitting the special tap aerator“

3. Switch on the electric power.

4. Adapt the water flow if necessary, if for example the temperature is not reached. The proce-

dure is described in the chapter “Use”.

5. Explain the functions and use of the instantaneous water heater to the user and hand over

these operating instructions to the user for information and future reference.

6. Register the appliance with the customer service department using the registration card or

online at www.clage.com.

3.1.1 Removing the cover

Under this cover, the rating plate and the hood screw are located.

1. Push the cover at the corrugation towards the wall bracket.

2. At the rear corners press the cover down until the front edge lifts.

3. Remove the cover by pulling forward.

Fig. 9: “ Removing the cover” As soon as the hot water tap is opened, the instantaneous water heater switches on automati- cally. Close the tap and the appliance switches off automatically again. Use

3.1 Rating plate cover25

May only be carried out by a specialist. Remove the cover, undo the hood screw underneath and remove the hood. The maximum temperature and flow depend on the conditions at the installation site. In case of quite low or high cold water temperatures, you may reduce or increase the flow with the adjustment screw to achieve a comfortable outlet temperature. See figure below for direc- tion of rotation:

Direction of rotation Flow Temperature Fig. 10: “Adjusting the water flow and temperature”

The cold water connection of the instantaneous water heater is equipped with a strainer. Dirt deposited in this strainer can reduce the hot water output. Clean or replace as follows.

Switch off the power supply to the instantaneous water heater.

2. Close the shut-off valve in the inlet pipe.

3. Disconnect the water pipe from the water inlet. The

water inlet is indicated in blue on the rating plate (under the cover). This can cause water leakage.

4. Lever the strainer out of the connection piece of the

instantaneous water heater and clean or replace it.

5. Insert the clean strainer into the connection piece and

connect the water pipe to the water inlet of the instan- taneous water heater.

6. Purge the instantaneous water heater as described in

the chapter “Purging”.

7. Switch the power supply back on again.

Fig. 12: “Changing the strainer” Each time it is emptied (for example after work on the plumbing system or following repair work on the appliance), the instantaneous water heater must be purged before it is used again.

1. Switch off the power supply to the instantaneous water heater.

2. To purge the instantaneous water heater, open the hot water tap and wait until the water

emerges free of air bubbles.

3. Switch the power supply back on again.

• Plastic surfaces and fittings should only be wiped with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive or chlorine-based cleaning agents or solvents.

• For a good water supply, the outlet fittings (special tap aerators and shower heads) should be unscrewed and cleaned at regular intervals. Every three years, the electrical and plumb- ing components should be inspected by an authorised professional in order to ensure prop- er functioning and operational safety at all times. Use
