IMPORTANT! 

To guarantee reliable operation and safe use of the 

water heater check prior to the first run if it is properly 

connected to the 220V AC electrical main. The water 

heater to be connected must be securely wired up to 

the earth loop of your electrical main. 

IMPORTANT! 

Power outlet must be designed for rated current of 

10A at least; copper-conductor power cord must be 

at least 3x1.5 mm2 in cross-section (for copper).

IMPORTANT! 

Water can drip from the pressure safety valve upon 

heating. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID DRIPPING 

AND IT IS FORBIDDEN TO PREVENT IT BECAUSE 

IT CAN RESULT IN TANK RUPTURE (IN THE CASE 

OF EQUIPMENT FAILURE). Working ability of the 

pressure safety valve should be inspected every 

14 days. The inspection method is described in the 

section 9 (MAINTENANCE).

be switched on automatically and restore the required water temperature.
4. After rotating the handle to the position «MIN» the minimum temperature 

+30°C (± 5°C) would be seted. After puting the handle in to position «MAX», 

the maximum temperature would be set +70°C (± 5°C).
5. There is a “COMFORT” sign on the panel. It signifies optimal temperature
