2.1

Intended use

This appliance is intended for heating domestic hot water (DHW)
or for reheating preheated water and can supply one or several
draw-off points.
This appliance is intended for domestic use. It can be used safely
by untrained persons. The appliance can also be used in a non-do-
mestic environment, e.g. in a small business, as long as it is used
in the same way.
Any other use beyond that described shall be deemed inappropri-
ate. Observation of these instructions and of instructions for any
accessories used is also part of the correct use of this appliance.
2.2 General safety instructions
CAUTION Burns
During operation, the tap can reach temperatures in ex-
cess of 60 °C.
There is a risk of scalding at outlet temperatures in ex-
cess of 43 °C.
CAUTION Burns
When operating the appliance with preheated water, e.g.
from a solar thermal system, the DHW temperature may
vary from the selected set temperature.
WARNING Injury
!
The appliance may be used by children aged 3 and older
and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or a lack of experience and know-how, pro-
vided that they are supervised or they have been in-
structed on how to use the appliance safely and have
understood the resulting risks. Children must never play
with the appliance. Children must never clean the ap-
pliance or perform user maintenance unless they are
supervised.
Material losses
!
The user should protect the appliance and its tap against
frost.

Appliance description

The electronically controlled instantaneous water heater main-
tains a constant outlet temperature up to its output limit, irre-
spective of the inlet temperature.
The appliance heats the water directly at the draw-off point, as
soon as you turn on the hot water tap. The short pipe runs ensure
that energy and water losses are minimal.
For the start flow rate, see chapter "Installation / Specification /
Data table, On".
The DHW output depends on the cold water temperature, the
heating output, the flow rate and the selected set temperature.
Water will not be reheated if the maximum inlet temperature for
reheating is exceeded.
DHW temperature
The DHW outlet temperature can be variably adjusted.
Temperature limit / Anti-scalding protection
The maximum outlet temperature for the appliance can be limited
to 43 °C. For this, contact your local heating contractor.
Heating system
The bare wire heating system has a pressure-tested plastic casing.
The heating system is suitable for (both) soft and hard water and
is largely resistant to scale build-up. This heating system ensures
rapid and efficient DHW availability.
Note
The appliance is equipped with an air detector that large-
ly prevents damage to the heating system. If, during op-
eration, air is drawn into the appliance, the appliance
shuts down for one minute, thereby protecting the heat-
ing system.
4. Operation
f Turn the temperature selector to the required position. f
If the outlet temperature fails to reach the required level with the
tap fully open and the temperature selector set to maximum, then
more water is flowing through the appliance than can be heated
by the heating element.
f Reduce the flow rate at the tap. f
