Wall mounting

The continuous-flow heater must be mounted on the
wall. Attach it if necessary on the lower adjustable screws.
The distance to the wall is variable. You can compensate
for any unevenness of the wall's surface.
The grommet must tightly surround the connection cable.
If it is damaged during mounting, the openings must be
provided with watertight sealing.

The continuous-flow heater must be vented. Open
the warm water tap fully and flush out the appliance
thoroughly for 1 minute with at least 6 litres of water.
