SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

General
• This tank can be used by children eight years old and older as well as by persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or who lack experience and knowledge if they are su-
pervised or if they have been trained with regard to the safe use of the tank and understand the
resulting risks. Children may not play with the tank or its packaging. Cleaning and user main-
tenance may not be performed by children without supervision.
• The tank may only be installed and operated as described in this manual or the associated
technical information. Any other use is not proper and is therefore impermissible.
• A defective tank may not continue to be operated.
• There is a risk of scalding from hot water or hot components (e.g. fittings, hot water outlet pipe,
etc.).
• When using an electric immersion heater, proper corrosion protection is to be ensured.
Installation and commissioning
• Installation and commissioning may only be performed by qualified specialised personnel who
therefore assume the responsibility for the proper assembly according to the applicable laws,
standards and guidelines.
• The tank is mounted to a sufficient load-bearing wall using a wall mount (note the total weight of
the filled tank) or is placed on a flat horizontal surface after mounting the included adjustable feet.
Ensure that the subsurface at the installation location has a sufficient load-bearing capacity.
• The tank may only be set up in dry, freeze-protected spaces. The tank is to be completely emp-
tied if there is a risk of freezing.
• The rated pressure specified on the nameplate may not be exceeded.
• When installing the tank, a possible water leak is to be considered and a corresponding collection
container (including drain) is to be installed in a drainage object.
• Following the commissioning, the tank and all connections are to be checked for leak tightness.
Electrical Connection
• Only qualified specialised personnel may connect the tank to fixed lines while observing the re-
levant professional standards and laws.
• A ground fault circuit interrupter with a trip current of I∆n ≤ 30mA must be installed upstream from
the electrical circuit.
• Before working on the tank, this is to be de-energised, checked for the absence of voltage and
secured against being switched on again.
• If a connection cable is damaged, immediately disconnect the power supply (circuit breaker) and
call a professional!
• Connection cables may not be extended or cut through in any way.
Servicing
• Maintenance, cleaning and any necessary repair or service work may only be performed by spe-
cialised personnel who are qualified for this purpose.
• Never try to fix errors and faults yourself.
• Necessary service and maintenance intervals are to be observed in accordance with these ope-
rating and assembly instructions.
