General safety instructions
We guarantee trouble-free function and operational reliability only
if original accessories and spare parts intended for the water heater
are used.
Material losses
!
Observe the maximum inlet temperature. Higher tempera-
tures may damage the water heater. You can limit the max-
imum inlet temperature by installing a central thermostatic
valve.
WARNING Electrocution
This water heater contains capacitors which are discharged
when disconnected from the power supply. The capacitor
discharge voltage may briefly exceed 60 V DC.
8.2
Instructions, standards and regulations
Note
Observe all applicable national and regional regulations
and instructions.
- The electrical resistivity of the water must not fall below that
stated on the type plate. In a linked water network, factor in
the lowest electrical resistivity of the water. Your water supply
utility will advise you of the electrical resistivity or conductivity
of the water in your area.
