temperatures or for large water volumes, then it is recommended
that the setting "Bathing" or "Rinsing"
Increasing the water temperature
If a higher temperature is not obtained when the warm water tap is fully
opened, then this is because more water is flowing than the continuous-
flow heater's power capacity can heat.
• If this happens, then slightly close the warm water tap.
Decreasing the water temperature
• Turn the rotary selector switch to a lower level e. g. "Washing hands"
Note: If the temperature of the water supplying the appliance changes,
then the output temperature of the water leaving the tap also changes
correspondingly.
