ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER
HOTTER WATER INCREASES THE RISK OF SCALD INJURY
This water heater can deliver water at temperatures which can cause scalding.
Check the water temperature before use, such as when entering a shower or
filling a bath or basin, to ensure it is suitable for the application and will not
cause scald injury.
We recommend and it may also be required by regulations that an approved
temperature limiting device be fitted into the hot water pipe work to the
bathroom and ensuite when this water heater is installed. This will keep the
water temperature below 50°C at the bathroom and ensuite. The risk of scald
injury will be reduced and still allow hotter water to the kitchen and laundry.
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
The temperature adjusting dial is on the
gas valve, located behind the access cover
on the lower front of the water heater. A
setting of '5' will normally maintain the
water temperature at about 60°C. Each
number
represents
a
temperature
difference of approximately 6°C.
To increase the water temperature to 66°C
or 73°C, turn the gas control knob
anticlockwise to a setting of '6' or '7'
"Hotter

PIEZO IGNITION
The "Piezo" push button igniter makes
lighting the pilot flame of your water heater
very easy. Simply follow the instructions on
the label attached to the back of the access
door. There is no need for matches to light
the water heater.
PILOT IGNITER
A permanent pilot flame burns to ignite the
main burner automatically. Heat from the
pilot is absorbed by the water.
