INSTALLATION
7. Safety
Only a qualified contractor should carry out installation, commis-
sioning, maintenance and repair of the appliance.
7.1 General safety instructions
We guarantee trouble-free function and operational reliability
only if the original accessories and spare parts intended for the
appliance are used.
!
Material losses
Observe the maximum inlet temperature. Higher tem-
peratures may damage the appliance. You can limit the
maximum inlet temperature by installing a central ther-
mostatic valve.
7.2 Instructions, standards and regulations
Note
Observe all applicable national and regional regulations
and instructions.
- The protection rating IP 25 (hoseproof) can only be ensured
with a correctly fitted cable grommet.
- The specific electrical resistance of the water must not fall
below that stated on the type plate. In a linked water net-
work, observe the lowest electrical water resistance (see
chapter "Specification/ Application areas"). Your water
supply utility will advise you of the specific electrical water
resistance or conductivity.

!
Material losses
If plastic pipework systems are used, take into account
the maximum inlet temperature and the maximum pres-
sure (see chapter "Specification/ Data table").
Flow rate
Ensure that the flow rate (see chapter "Specification/ Data
table", On) for switching on the appliance is achieved.
Increase the mains water pressure if the required flow rate is
not achieved with the draw-off valve fully opened.
Flexible water connection lines
If the appliance is installed with flexible water connection
lines, ensure that the pipe bends do not become twisted.
Pipe bends have a bayonet fitting and are installed inside the
appliance.
Secure the back panel with an additional screw at the
bottom.
9.1 Installation site
!
Material losses
Only install the appliance in rooms free from the risk of
frost.
Always install the appliance vertically near the draw-off
point.
The appliance is suitable for undersink and oversink installations.
Note
Mount the appliance on a sufficiently load-bearing wall.
