NOTE:
Do not mount additional accessories, such as a shut-
off valve, between the relief valve and the inlet nozzle.
5. Water heater with the mounted valve must be connected to the water
main – install a shut-off valve at the water inlet point.
6. Connect the desired number of consumption points to the outlet nozzle,
marked red.
7. Check leak integrity of joints: open the shut-off cock and one of the
cock assemblies. After the tank is filled with water, as evidenced by issue
of water from the cock assembly, shut the cock assembly and check the
leak integrity of all joints.
IMPORTANT!
If water in the installation location contains a large
amount of calcium, manganese or iron salts, then
necessary to mount a respective filter in the delivery
system to reduce the amount of scale generated in
the tank and on the heating element.
1. The water heater is designed to be connected to 220V single-phase
electric main. Prior to connecting make sure that parameters of the electric
main in the place of connection correspond to parameters, specified on the
identification plate with technical parameters of the appliance. You should
follow the current electrical safety code when installing the water heater.
2. Power outlet must be designed for rated current not less than 10A,
copper stranded power cord not less than 3x1.5 mm
2
in cross section
(for copper).
3. The power outlet and the plug must always remain dry to prevent
current leakage. Regularly check if the power plug is tightly connected to
the outlet. Do it in the following order: insert the power plug into the outlet,
switch off the water heater after half-hour operation and unplug the cord,
check if the plug is heated by your hand. If the plug is heated over 50°C,
then to prevent damages, accidents and fire as a result of bad electrical
contact, replace the outlet with a new one. A specialist must do this.
Connection to electric main
IMPORTANT!
Prior to connecting the tank water heater, make sure
that the water heater is properly grounded. Proper
grounding is important to minimize electric shocks
and risk of fire. The power cord is equipped with a plug
with a grounding pin. The appliance must be used
with a properly grounded power outlet. If the outlet,
you are intending to use, is not properly grounded or
grounded by a time-delay fuse or a circuit breaker,
contact a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet.
IMPORTANT!
To provide reliable operation and safe use of the
water heater, prior to the first run check if it is properly
connected to the 220V AC mains. The water heater to
be connected must be securely linked with the earth
circuit of your electric mains. If the water heater is not
grounded, then in case of a short circuit GFCI, supplied
with the heater, may not operate. It is dangerous.
