Operation | 17 If there is reason for concern for contamination from bacteria such as legionella, consider setting the DHW thermostat to at least “e” (131 °F (55 °C)). This setting ensures an economical and comfortable DHW generation. Consult your local water department or municipality for further information.
18 | Operation ECO button Pressing and holding the ECO button until it lights up switches between Comfort mode and Economy mode. • Comfort mode, ECO button is not lit (default setting) In Comfort mode, the DHW tank has priority. The DHW tank is heated to the set temperature first.
Operation | 19 ECO button Pressing and holding the ECO button until it lights up switches between Comfort mode and Economy mode. • Comfort mode (default setting) The appliance is continually maintained at the set temperature. Consequently, DHW draws are immediate, however the appliance may run even if no DHW is being drawn.
