OPERATION
General information

SPECIAL INFORMATION

- The appliance may be used by children aged 8
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.
- Use a permanent connection to the power supply.
Ensure the appliance can be separated from the
power supply by an isolator that disconnects all
poles with at least 3 mm contact separation.
- Observe the maximum permissible pressure (see
chapter "Specification / Data table").
- The appliance is under pressure. 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 the chap-
ter "Installation / Maintenance / Draining the
appliance".
- Install a type-tested safety valve in the cold water
supply line. Please note that, depending on the
static pressure, you may also need a pressure re-
ducing 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 the atmosphere.
