maximum convenience in DHW provision. Should you nonetheless
operate the appliance with a thermostatic valve, we recommend
that you:

f
Then set the required set temperature on the thermostatic
valve.

Temperature limit via internal anti-scalding protection
(qualified contractor)
If required, the qualified contractor can set a permanent temper-
ature limit, for example in nurseries, hospitals, etc.
When supplying a shower, the appliance temperature setting
range must be adjusted by the qualified contractor to 55 °C or less.
Limiting it in this way prevents water from flowing out of the
appliance at temperatures which could cause injury.
