Preheat Function
When the "Preheat" function is activated and used in accordance with these instructions, water in the pipework
connected between the water heater and the hot water outlets in your house is warmed before any outlets are
opened. This results in water savings and added convenience.
Preheat Operation
1. Ensure that the hot water unit is on (temperature digits are displayed in the digital monitor
3
). If more than
one water controller is tted press the "Priority Transfer" button
8
to pass on priority to your desired water
controller. The "Controller Priority" indicator
5
will illuminate to conrm that priority has been assigned to this
water controller and that the hot water unit is ready to deliver hot water.
2. Select the desired temperature using the "Temperature Control" buttons
6
until the required temperature is
displayed in the digital monitor
3
.
3. Press the "Preheat" button
1
once. The "Preheat" indicator
2
and the "In Use" indicator
7
will illuminate,
signifying that the preheat system has been activated.
4. Wait for the "In Use" indicator
7
to go out (this may take 2 to 5 minutes). When this happens it signies that
the water in the pipework has now been pre-warmed and is ready for delivery, and that a hot water tap can
now be opened.
NOTE
The waiting time may be longer or shorter depending on your particular installation conguration.
For best results always wait for the "In Use" indicator
7
to go out before opening a hot water tap.
The preheat function is cancelled 5 minutes after activation and the "Preheat" indicator
2
will go
out. This is to conserve energy. To reactivate, simply repeat steps 2-4 above.
If the "Preheat" button
1
is pressed and the 'Smartstart' preheat unit is not installed, the "Preheat"
indicator
2
will still light however there will be no preheat function. The "Preheat" indicator
2
will go out after a short time and will not a󰀨ect the other functions of the water controller or water
heater.
When deluxe Bathroom water controllers are tted, after using the Shower Saver / Bath Fill
function wait 30 seconds before activating the 'Preheat' function. Attempting to use the 'Preheat'
function earlier will result in voice prompts being repeated until the system is reset. The system
can be reset by pressing the "On /O󰀨" button twice.
Water Controller Functions
Water controller functions such as temperature control and transfer of priority between multiple controllers are not
a󰀨ected by the operation of the preheat. Such functions are described in the applicable sections of this manual.
