Care and maintenance
Warning!
Always disconnect the water heater from the
power supply before servicing.
The heater does not require additional main-
tenance. It is necessary to wipe the body
from time to time with a soft cloth or a damp
sponge in order not to damage the heater
body. Do not use harsh chemicals.
To ensure a long service life and to maintain
the valid warranty for the internal water-
containing tank, maintenance should be
performed by qualified specialists no later
than in a year after the start of operation,
which should include a mandatory check for
the presence of scale on the heating element
and the inner cavity of the water-containing
tank, and also the state of the magnesium
anode. In case of severe wear, the magne-
sium anode should be replaced. The warranty
for the water tank and the heating element in
case of a worn anode (residual volume less
than 30% of the original) is invalid.
Based on the results of the inspection of the
water heater during the first maintenance,
the frequency of regular maintenance should
be scheduled to be adhered throughout the
entire period of the heater operation.
Heating element (PHE)
The dry heating element (PHE) is designed
to heat water in the inner tank by converting
electrical energy into heat. The formation of
limescale (scale) on its surface can lead to
poor heat transfer, overheating and prema-
ture failure of the heating element. Regularly
inspect and, if necessary, descale its surface
with a descaling agent. The heating element
warranty is void if one or more of the follow-
ing conditions are met:
• the hardness of the water exceeds 25 °F,
• the thickness of the scale layer on the sur-
face of the heating element is more than
5 mm.
Watch out!
Scale build-up on the heating element and
sludge in the internal tank can lead to water
heater failure and is grounds for refusal of
warranty service. Regular maintenance is a
preventive measure and is not covered by
the warranty.
The pressure relief device should be checked
for operation at regular intervals to remove
lime deposits. It is not allowed to install
switches, outlets, and sockets in the forbidden
space and lighting fixtures. Circuit breakers
are not permitted in the safety space, but
grounded sockets may be installed.
The water heater should be installed out-
side the prohibited volume so that it is not
exposed to jets of water. A properly rated
circuit breaker should be installed to ensure
safe operation of the water heater. For daily
use, it is advisable to keep the water heater
plugged in, as the thermostat only turns the
heat on when it is required to maintain the set
temperature. Have your water heater serviced
regularly by an authorized service center.
Never remove the water heater cover with-
out first disconnecting it from the power sup-
ply.
Transport and storage
Water heaters in the manufacturer's packag-
ing can be transported by all types of cov-
ered transport in compliance with the rules
for the transportation of goods applicable for
this type of transport. Transportation condi-
tions are at temperature from minus 50 to plus
During transportation, any possible impact
and movement of packaged water heat-
ers inside the vehicle should be excluded.
Transportation and stacking should be done
in accordance with the handling signs indi-
cated on the packaging. Water heaters have
to be stored in the manufacturer's packaging
Recycling
The time-expired appliance can’t be dis-
posed with household waste (2012/19/EU).
