WARNING
Hot water
Hot water temperatures above 49 °C can cause serious scalding injuries and in extreme cases even
death. The heating system can deliver hot water at temperatures above 85 °C.
• For safe operation, use a mixing valve set at a temperature no higher than 48 °C.
• Always check the water temperature before entering a shower or bath.
• Hot water can be dangerous, especially for infants, children, the elderly or the infirm.

• Before using the hot water tap or the shower, allow the hot water to run until the water temperature
is safe and stabilized.
• Check the temperature of the water before placing a child in the bath or shower.
• Do not leave a child or an infirm person in the bath unsupervised.
CAUTION
• Avoid damage to the heating system which might void your warranty.
• Make no alterations! Any alteration to the heating system or its controls can cause unforeseen
serious hazards and, in addition, will void the warranty.
NOTICE
There may be a variation between the temperature delivered from the heating system and the tem-
perature at the tap due to water conditions or the length of the pipe to the heating system.
