3. Appliance description
The appliance switches on automatically as soon as you open the
hot water valve on the tap. When you close the tap, the appliance
switches off again automatically.
The appliance heats water as it flows through it. The DHW outlet
temperature is set to a fixed value. This is max. 55 °C, which can
be reduced by mixing in cold water at the tap.
From a certain flow rate, the control unit regulates the correct
heating output, subject to the temperature selected and the cur-
rent cold water temperature.
The electronically controlled compact instantaneous water heater
maintains a consistent outlet temperature. This is irrespective of
the inlet temperature, up to the maximum output of the appliance.
Heating system
The bare wire heating system is enclosed within a pressure-tested
plastic jacket. The heating system with its stainless steel heater
spiral is suitable for hard and soft water areas and is largely in-
susceptible to scale build-up. The heating system ensures rapid
and efficient DHW provision.
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 heating operation for one minute to protect
the heating system.

!
To ensure that the bare wire heating system is not dam-
aged following an interruption to the water supply, the
appliance must be restarted by taking the following steps.
f Disconnect the appliance from the power supply by f
removing the fuses/tripping the MCBs.
f Open the tap for one minute until the appliance and f
its upstream cold water inlet line are free of air.
f Switch the power back ON. f

Recommended settings

Your instantaneous water heater offers maximum precision and
maximum convenience in DHW provision. If you do nonetheless
operate the appliance with a thermostatic valve, we recommend
adjusting the required set temperature on the thermostatic valve.

Cleaning, care and maintenance

f Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp f
cloth is sufficient for cleaning the appliance.
f Check the taps regularly. Limescale deposits at the tap out- f
lets can be removed using commercially available descaling
agents.
