OPERATION Appliance description Heating system WARNING Injury The appliance may be used by children aged 3 and older The heating system is suitable for hard and soft water areas and and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental is largely insusceptible to scale build-up. This heating system en- capabilities or a lack of experience and know-how, pro- sures rapid and efficient DHW availability.
OPERATION Settings and displays Setting the temperature Enabling the temperature limit (childproofing) f Press and hold the Tmax key for > 6 seconds. The set value display flashes and the current temperature limit is shown. f The value for the temperature limit can be changed while the display is flashing.
OPERATION Cleaning, care and maintenance Following an interruption to the water supply Material losses Following an interruption of the water supply the appli- ance must be recommissioned by carrying out the follow- ing steps, in order to prevent the destruction of the bare wire heating system.
INSTALLATION Safety INSTALLATION - The specific electrical resistivity of the water must not fall below that stated on the type plate. In a linked water net- work, factor in the lowest electrical resistance of the water (see chapter "Specification / Application areas"). Your water supply utility will advise you of the specific electrical water Safety resistivity or conductivity.
INSTALLATION Installation 10. Installation Flow rate f Ensure that the flow rate (see chapter "Specification / Data table", On) is sufficient for switching on the appliance. 10.1 Standard installation f Increase the mains water pressure if the required flow rate is - Electrical connection in the lower section of the appliance for not sufficient with an open draw-off valve.
