DANGER Electrocution
Before proceeding with any installation, adjustment,
alteration, or service of this appliance, all circuit break-
ers and disconnect switches servicing the appliance
must be turned off. Failure to do so could result in

The water heater must be installed by a licensed elec-
trician and plumber. The installation must comply with
all national, state and local plumbing and electric codes.
Service of the water heater must be performed by qual-
ified service technicians.
DAMAGE TO THE WATER HEATER AND THE ENVIRON-
!
MENT:
Supply this appliance only from a grounded system. A
green terminal (or a wire connector marked "G", "GR",
"GROUND", OR "GROUNDING") is provided for wiring the
appliance. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect
this terminal or connector to the grounding terminal of
the electric service or supply panel with a continuous
copper wire in accordance with the electrical installa-
tion code.
Note
When mounting the water heater to the wall, countersunk
screws must be used in order to maintain the IP 24 rating.
See section 9.1.4, "Mounting the water heater", pg. 9.

WARNING Injury
!
The appliance may be used by children aged 3 and older
and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or a lack of experience and know-how, pro-
vided that they are supervised or they have been in-
structed on how to use the appliance safely and have
understood the potential risks. Children must never play
with the appliance. Children must never clean the ap-
pliance or perform user maintenance unless they are
supervised.
Where children or persons with limited physical, sensory or men-
tal abilities are allowed to use this water heater, we recommend
asking the qualified contractor to set a permanent "Internal an-
ti-scalding protection" temperature limit.
Material losses
!
The user should protect the water heater against frost.

3. Water heater description
The water heater switches on automatically as soon as you open
the hot water valve at the tap. When you close the tap, the water
heater switches off automatically.
From the activation flow rate, the control unit regulates the correct
heating output, subject to the temperature selected internally via
jumper by a contractor during installation, and the current cold
incoming water temperature.
If the water heater is operated with preheated water and the inlet
temperature exceeds the chosen set temperature, the water is not
heated further.
Fixed DHW temperature
The water heater heats water as it flows through the unit.
The fixed DHW outlet temperature can be adjusted by a contrac-
tor via jumper during installation. The factory default value is
122 °F (50 °C). Other selectable values include: 110 °F (43 °C), 131 °F
(55 °C), 140 °F (60 °C). See section 10.2, "Temperature setting via
jumper slot - operating voltage 240 V", pg. 11 for full informa-
tion.
Heating system
™
The Direct Coil heating system is comprised of a pressure-tested,
glass-reinforced polyamide heating chamber with a nichrome wire
direct heating coil. It is suitable for hard and soft water areas and
is largely insusceptible to scale build-up. The Direct Coil
system ensures rapid and efficient DHW production.
