SETUP & OPERATION
- CAUTION: NEVER POWER THE WATER HEATER WITHOUT WATER: Models with an electric heating
element will be certainly damaged.
- Fill the tank completely. Before powering up, open the hot water taps, drain the pipes in order to empty the
air.
- Check the tightness of the tubes and of the flange seal under the plastic cover. In case of leaking tighten
moderately. Check the operating of the hydraulic components and of the safety valve.
- Turn the power on. After 15 to 30 minutes, depending of the capacity of the device, the water should drip from
the drain. This is normal and due to the expansion of water. Check connection leaks and seal. During heating
and according to the water quality, hot water tanks can make a bubbling noise. This noise is normal and does
not indicate any defect of the unit.

advice in the manufacturer's instructions.
2. MAINTENANCE BY A QUALIFIED PERSON
- Scaling: Remove the scale sludge. Do not scrape or hammer the lime scale deposited on the casing, as this
may damage the lining.
- Magnesium anode: change the magnesium anode every 2 years or when its diameter is lower than 10 mm.
- Heating element: the replacement of a sheathed heating element involves draining of the water heater and
replacement of the flange gasket. Reassemble the heating element, reasonably tight nuts (cross tightening),
check that there is no leakage after the first heating-up, tighten again if necessary
- Drain: Turn off power and cold water supply. Open hot water taps and drain valve of the safety device.
Spare parts list: thermostat, flange gasket, heating element, heating light indicator, magnesium anode,
connection wires, electric switch. The guarantee requires genuine manufacturer's parts to be used.
