3.1.4  Putting out of operation

Method of working:

1.  For short periods: take the connector 

out of the stop contact or where 

there is a fixed connection switch off 

the mains switch.

2.  In addition to the operations in 

point 1, for longer periods it is 

recommended to shut off the water 

feed pipe in connection with the 

danger of frost and once the device 

has cooled down, to drain off the 

water by connecting a drainage hose 

to the drainage valve and opening 

it. Also open the closest hot water 

drainage point for ventilating the 

tank. Take care that the feed pipe 

and inlet combination cannot freeze. 

Drain the feed pipe as necessary 

and check whether all other pipes 

are empty.

3.2 

Maintenance

The inlet combination must be allowed to 

work regularly (testing with the test button) 

with the aim of avoiding a blockage as a 

consequence of scale. The water has to 

flow out in a forceful jet. Check whether the 

discharge pipe is open. We recommend a 

service agreement with an installer on an 

annual basis.

3.3 

Faults

In the case of faults we advise you to 

switch off the device by means of the 

mains switch and to ask a recognised 

installer of technical support for help.
