10 mm. Changing the heating element or the anode requires the water
heater to be drained and the seal changed.

Draining the tank

Turn off the power and the supply of cold water, open the hot water faucets
and manipulate the safety valve before performing these operations. Refit
the heating element and tighten the screws gently (opposite screws in
sequence), check for leaks the next day and tighten if required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly
available from the manufacturer or approved service agent.

Replaceable parts

Replaceable parts are the thermostat, seals, heating element, boiler shell,
indicator light, magnesium anode and connection cable. The guarantee
requires genuine manufacturer's parts to be used.
