SPECIAL INFORMATION
SPECIAL INFORMATION
- The appliance may be used by children aged8
and up and persons with reduced physical, sen-
sory or mental capabilities or a lack of experience
and know-how, provided that they are supervised
or they have been instructed on how to use the
appliance safely and have understood the result-
ing risks. Children must never play with the ap-
pliance. Children must never clean the appliance
or perform user maintenance unless they are
supervised.
- Observe all applicable national and regional reg-
ulations and instructions during installation.
- The appliance is not approved for outdoor
installation.
- Observe the minimum clearances (see chap-
ter "Installation/ Preparations/ Siting the
appliance").
- Observe the requirements concerning the instal-
lation room (see chapter "Specification/ Data
table").
- If the appliance is permanently connected to the
power supply, ensure that the appliance can be
separated from the power supply by an isolator
that disconnects omnipolar with at least 3mm
contact separation. Contactors, mains isolators or
fuses can be used for this.
- Observe the safety measures to prevent contact
with dangerous 'live' currents.
- Observe the MCB/fuse protection required for
the appliance (see chapter "Specification/ Data
table").
- The power cable must only be replaced (for ex-
ample if damaged) with an original spare part by
a qualified contractor authorised by the manufac-
turer (connection typeX).
- The appliance is pressurised. During the heat-up
process, expansion water will drip from the safety
valve.
- Regularly activate the safety valve to prevent
it from becoming blocked, e.g. by limescale
deposits.
- Drain the appliance as described in chapter "In-
stallation/ Maintenance and cleaning/ Draining
the cylinder".
- Install a type-tested safety valve in the cold water
supply line.
- The maximum pressure in the cold water supply
line must be at least 20% below the response
pressure of the safety valve. If the maximum
pressure in the cold water supply line is higher,
install a pressure reducing valve.
- Size the drain so that water can drain off unim-
peded when the safety valve is fully opened.
- Fit the discharge pipe of the safety valve with
a constant downward slope and in a room free
from the risk of frost.
- The safety valve discharge aperture must remain
open to atmosphere.
