ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER
HOTTER WATER INCREASES THE RISK OF SCALD INJURY
This water heater can deliver water at temperatures which can cause scalding.
Check the water temperature before use, such as when entering a shower or
filling a bath or basin, to ensure it is suitable for the application and will not cause
scald injury.
We recommend and it may also be required by regulations that an approved
temperature limiting device be fitted into the hot water pipe work to the bathroom
and ensuite when this water heater is installed. This will keep the water
temperature below 50°C at the bathroom and ensuite. The risk of scald injury will
be reduced and still allow hotter water to the kitchen and laundry.
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
The temperature adjusting dial is on the gas
valve, located at the lower front of the water
heater. A setting of '6' will normally maintain
the water temperature at about 60°C. Each
number
represents
a
temperature
difference of approximately 6°C.
To increase the water temperature to 65°C,
turn the gas control knob anticlockwise to a
setting of '7'. Refer to
"Hotter Water
Increases the Risk of Scald Injury"
on
page 9.
PIEZO IGNITION
The "Piezo" push button igniter makes
lighting the pilot flame of your water heater
very easy. Simply follow the instructions on
the label attached to the front of the water
heater. There is no need for matches to light
the water heater.
PILOT IGNITER
A permanent pilot flame burns to ignite the
main burner automatically. Heat from the
pilot is absorbed by the water.
