valve and connect as described in Fig. 6.
3. After installation, open gas valve and
check for leaks at connections with water
and soap. Never check for gas leaks with
fire.
For hydraulic connection, it is
recommended to use copper pipes and
to install a globe valve for cold water inlet.
Note: There is a filter at the water inlet; do
not remove it to install. (Fig. 12).
Hot water outlet
First, remove the drain plug.
Connect as shown in Fig. 6. If you install a
control valve or faucet, or a shower with a
faucet at the hot water outlet, make sure
their material and piping material is resistant
to high temperatures.
Plastic or aluminum pipes can be damaged
by heat. Replace drain plug.
Slipping Hazard.
After draining, dry the water on the
floor to prevent slipping.
Failure to do so may result in death
or injuries.
