Periodical maintenance
The heating element (R fig. 4) should be descaled every two years (the frequency must be increased, if water is very
hard) to ensure it works properly. If you prefer not to use special liquids for this operation, simply crumble away the lime
deposit without damaging the heating element.
Replace the magnesium anode (N fig. 4) every two years (except products with stainless steel tank), but in the presence
hard water or water rich with chloride it is necessary to verify the anode state every year.
To remove this, disassemble the heating element and unscrew from the support bracket.
After routine or extraordinary maintenance, we recommend filling its tank with water and draining it completely
so as to remove any residual impurities. Use only original spare parts supplied by the manufacturer's authorised
service centres.
Bipolar safety device
In the event of abnormal overheating of the water, a thermal safety switch with CEI-EN regulations, shuts off the electric
circuit on both heating elements; in this case, call for Technical Assistance.
Pressure safety device
Regularly check that the pressure safety device is not clogged or damaged; if it is, remove any scale or replace it.
If the device has a lever or knob, operate it to:
- drain the appliance, if necessary
- check its operation from time to time.
Thermoelectrical models
The heating element (R fig. 4) should be descaled every two years (the frequency must be increased, if water is very
hard) to ensure it works properly.
Connect the top thermal attachment of the heater to the rising column of the thermosiphon and the bottom attachment to
the descending column, fitting two taps between the same.
The more accessible bottom tap, is used to disactivate the appliance from the system when the central heating is not
used.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION! Follow the general warnings and the safety norms listed at the beginning
of the text and keep to all the instructions given under all circumstances.
Advice for user
- Avoid positioning any objects and/or appliances that could be damaged by water leaks beneath the water heater.
- Should you not use any water for an extended period of time, you should:
¾ disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply by switching the external switch to "OFF";
¾ turn off the plumbing circuit taps.
- Hot water at above 50°C flowing out of the taps at the point of use could cause serious scalds or even death from burns.
Children, the disabled and the elderly are more exposed to the risk of burns.
It is strictly forbidden for the user to perform any routine or extraordinary maintenance.
Operation and Regulation of the operating temperature
Starting the appliance
Press the two-pole switch to switch on the appliance. The indicator light remains ON during heating.
Adjusting the operating temperature
On models with external regulation, the water temperature can be set with the knob connected to the thermostat, as
indicated on the device itself.
USEFUL INFORMATION
If the water comes out cold, have the following checked:
- the thermostat is powered
- the heating parts of the heating element.
