ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER
A RheemPlus water heater is temperature limited to 50°C at the hot water
outlet. Increasing the thermostat setting will not increase the outlet temperature
but will provide more hot water capacity.
WARNING
This water heater is only intended to be operated by persons who have the
experience or the knowledge and the capabilities to do so. This water heater is
not intended to be operated by persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities i.e. the infirm, or by children. Children should be supervised
to ensure they do not interfere with the water heater.
This water heater uses 240 V AC power for the electrically operated
components. The removal of the front cover(s) will expose 240 V wiring. It must
only be removed by an authorised or qualified person.
Take care not to touch the power plug on a water heater fitted with a power
supply cord and plug with wet hands.
SAFETY
This water heater is supplied with a thermostat, an over-temperature cut-out,
and a combination temperature pressure relief valve. In addition, a RheemPlus
water heater has a temperature limiting valve. These devices must not be
tampered with or removed. The water heater must not be operated unless each
of these devices is fitted and is in working order.
The operation of the over-temperature cut-out on the thermostat indicates a
possibly dangerous situation. If the over-temperature cut-out operates, it must
not be reset and the water heater must be serviced by an authorised or
qualified person.
If the power supply cord, plug or electrical conduit to the water heater is
damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised person in order to avoid a
hazard. The power supply cord and plug must be replaced with a genuine
replacement part available from Rheem. Phone Rheem Service or their nearest
Accredited Service Agent to arrange for an inspection.
Warning: For continued safety of this water heater it must be installed,
operated and maintained in accordance with the Owner‟s Guide and Installation
Instructions.
The warranty can become void if relief valves or other safety devices are
tampered with or if the installation is not in accordance with these
instructions.
