2 Operating instructions

2.1 Getting to know your appliance

This appliance is an electronically-regulated, pressurized continuous-flow heater for decentrally supplying hot water.

The electronic continuous-flow heater heats the water as it flows through the appliance. One or more taps can be supplied with warm water.

2.1.1 Operating element

1 Status display

2.2 Operating the appliance

2.2.1 Switching the appliance on and off

The continuous-flow heater switches on and heats the water when the warm water tap is opened. It switches off again if the water tap is closed.

The factory default setting for the warm water outflow temperature is 55 °C.

Note: The electronic control unit senses the input water's temperature and rate of flow and automatically adjusts the power consumption in order to obtain the set output water temperature (up to the power limit).

Increasing the water temperature

If the supply water temperature is low and the flow-rate is high, then it may happen that the set output water temperature is not obtained because the power limit is exceeded. This is signalled by rapid flashing of the status display.

- If this happens, then slightly close the warm water tap.

2.2.2 Status display

LED Appliance status
Off Off
Lights green On
Flashes green (1/s) The set temperature is not obtained; the rate of water flow is too high for appliance rating (the appliance has reached the power limit). See “A fault, what to do?”
Flashes green (2/s) Cold-water rinse-through phase
Flashes red See “A fault, what to do?”

2.2.3 Startup after power failure

- Open the warm water tap fully and allow water to flow until it is warm.

2.2.4 Using the appliance after switching off the water supply

- Switch off the appliance (unscrew the fuse in the fusebox).

- Open the warm water tap and keep it open until the air has been completely forced out of the water pipe.

- Switch the fuse back on again.

- Open the warm water tap fully and allow water to flow for at least one minute.

Only then (for safety reasons) will the appliance begin to heat.

The appliance is now ready to operate.

2.2.5 Winter operation

i

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

- Reduce the water flow at the tap until the desired water temperature is reached.

3 Cleaning

- Only wipe off the appliance using a moist cloth.

- Do not use acidic or abrasive cleaning materials.

- Do not use a steam cleaner.
