Water temperature warnings
▶ To meet regulatory requirements the temperature of stored
water heater must not be less than 60°C.
▶ The thermostat on your water heater is factory pre-set to
65°C which is suitable for the vast majority of domestic
applications.
▶ The thermostat setting can be adjusted between 50°C and
70°C. Adjustment must be made by an electrician or other
suitably qualified trades person.
Hydrogen warnings
General safety warnings
This water heater is fitted with a combination pressure and
temperature PTR relief valve (approved to AS1357), a
thermostat, and a resettable over-temperature cut-out.
▶ It is imperative that all safety devices are not tampered with
as this will void warranty.
WARNING:
Hot water can cause scalds. Children,
disabled and the elderly are at greatest risk.
Scalds from hot water can result in severe
injuries to young children. Feel water
temperature before bathing or showering.
Scalds can occur when children are exposed
directly to hot water when they are placed
into a bath that is too hot.
WARNING:
Additional temperature control or limiting
devices such as tempering valves may be
required to be fitted to this water heater to
meet regulatory requirements.
WARNING:
If the hot water heater is not used for two
weeks or more, a quantity of hydrogen gas,
which is highly flammable, may accumulate
in the water heater. To dissipate this safely,
it is recommended that a non-electrically
operated hot tap be turned on for several
minutes at a sink, or bath, but not at a
dishwasher or other appliance.
During this procedure there must be no
smoking, open flame, or any electrical
appliance operating nearby. If hydrogen gas
is discharged through the tap, it will
probably make a sound like air escaping.
WARNING:
Do not operate this water heater unless all
safety devices are fitted and functioning
normally.
CAUTION:
Failure to operate the relief valve easing gear
at least once every six months may result in
product fault.
It is important that the easing gear on the
valve be raised and lowered very gently.
Failure to do so may result in the water
heater cylinder failing, or faulting under
certain circumstances.
WARNING:
Relief valves should be checked to be in
sound working order at regular intervals not
exceeding 5 years, and more frequently in
areas subject to poor water quality.Checking
should include operation of the relief valve to
remove any lime deposits.
