WORK ON THE ELECTRIC INSTALLATION,
BE SURE THAT THE MAIN BREAKER PANEL
SWITCH IS “OFF“ TO AVOID ANY DANGER
OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. ALL MOUNTING AND
PLUMBING OF THE UNIT MUST BE COMPLETED
BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH ELECTRICAL HOOK-
UP. WHERE REQUIRED BY LOCAL, STATE OR
NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODES THE CIRCUIT
SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH A GROUND FAULT
INTERRUPTER. AS WITH ANY ELECTRIC APPLI-
ANCE, FAILURE TO ELECTRICALLY GROUND
UNIT MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH.
Voltage
Mini™ 3: 110 - 120V
Mini™ 4: 208, 220 - 240V
Mini™ 6: 208, 220 - 240V

A 208V OR 220 - 240V CIRCUIT WILL
DESTROY THE HEATING ELEMENT. THIS
IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
1. All electrical work must comply with national
and applicable state and local electrical
codes.
2. The Mini™ should be connected to a properly
grounded dedicated branch circuit of proper
voltage rating. In installations with several Mini™
units, each unit requires an independent circuit.
Please refer to the technical data table for the
correct wire and circuit breaker size.
3. The "pigtail" must be fed into the electrical
junction box. Then feed wires through strain
relief clamp and tighten clamp down on wire.
Connect the live wires L/L or N/L to the black
and brown wire on the units "pigtail". Con
-
nect the ground wire to the green/yellow
wire on the "pigtail".

perage rating.
Putting the water heater into
operation
WARNING: OPEN HOT WATER
FAUCET FOR A FEW MINUTES
UNTIL
WATER FLOW IS CONTINUOUS
AND ALL AIR
IS PURGED FROM WATER PIPES. THE UNIT’S
PLASTIC COVER MUST BE INSTALLED BEFORE
THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS TURNED ON.
Air in the cold water pipe may destroy
the bare-wire heating system of the
Mini™. If the water supply to the Mini™
has been interrupted, for example due
to the risk of frost or work on the water
pipes, the following steps must be car
-
ried out before the system is used again:
1. Turn off circuit breaker or unplug unit
if unit was installed with a plug.
2. Open a hot water tap downstream of
the device for as long as is necessary
for the device and the cold water pipe
to be freed of air.
3. Turn on circuit breaker or plug unit
back in.

Instruct User
Explain the function of the unit to the
user and familiarize him or her with its
use.
Important instructions:
• Draw the user’s attention to possible
hazards (scalding, electrical shock).
• Hand over these instructions for fu
-
ture reference
• In order to obtain proper temperature
control at a single spout mixer-type
faucet, restrict cold water flow to
faucet by partially closing the cold
water shut-off valve under the sink
until cold water and hot water flow
rates are approximately the same.
Normal maintenance
STIEBEL ELTRON Mini™ tankless heaters
are designed for a very long service life.
Actual life expectancy will vary with wa
-
ter quality and use. The unit itself does
not require any regular maintenance.
However, in order to ensure consistent
water flow rate, it is recommended to
periodically remove scale and dirt that
may build up at the aerator of the faucet
or in the shower head. Also, the Mini™
has a built in filter screen that should be
cleaned from time to time. In order to do
this, turn off the cold water supply at the
isolating valve. Unscrew the cold water
connection, clean screen and put the
screen, back into their original
position.
WARNING: OTHER THAN THE FIL
-
TER SCREEN, THE Mini™ DOES NOT
CONTAIN ANY PARTS SERVICEABLE BY THE
LAY PERSON. IN CASE OF MALFUNCTION
PLEASE CONTACT A LICENSED PLUMBER
OR ELECTRICIAN.
