PIEZO IGNITION
The “Piezo” push button igniter makes lighting
the pilot flame of your water heater very easy.
Simply follow the instructions on the label
attached to the back of the access door.
There is no need for matches to light the
water heater.
PILOT IGNITER
A permanent pilot flame burns to ignite the
main burner automatically. Heat from the pilot
is absorbed by the water.
PRECAUTIONS
Where damage to property can occur in the event of the water heater leaking,
the water heater must be installed in a safe tray. Construction, installation and
draining of a safe tray must comply with AS/NZS 3500.4 and all local codes
and regulatory authority requirements.
The water heater must be maintained in accordance with the Owner‟s Guide
and Installation Instructions. Refer to “Regular Care” on page 10 and to “Anode
Inspection and Replacement” on page 15.
If this water heater is to be used where an uninterrupted hot water supply is
necessary for your application or business you should ensure that you have
back up redundancy within the hot water system design. This should ensure
the continuity of hot water supply in the event that this water heater were to
become inoperable for any reason. We recommend you seek advice from your
plumber or specifier about your needs and building back up redundancy into
your hot water supply system.
