12.2 Resetting the safety thermal cutout

DANGER: Electrocution
Do not attempt to reset the safety thermal cutout of
this water heater unless power to the unit has been
completely shut off at the circuit breakers.
The safety thermal cutout on the Tempra is designed to cut off
electrical power to the heating elements if water of a too high
temperature is encountered. When one of these safety cutouts
have tripped, they must be reset manually.

1 Thermal safety cutouts
To reset the safety cutouts, follow the following procedure:
Turn off all circuit breakers attached to the water heater
Open the front cover of the water heater
Identify the safety thermal cutouts on the top of the cop-
per heating canisters. The buttons at the top are the reset
buttons.
Press down on the buttons, take note of whether they click
when pressed or not.
A heating canister that needs to be repeatedly reset may have a
technical issue that should be addressed by Stiebel Eltron tech-
nical support.
