recommended to also close the cold water tap and to drain the appliance after cooling (open the drain tap; it is possible to connect a drain hose to the drain tap; open the nearest hot water drain point to prevent air locks).

To be able to drain the appliance completely it should be disconnected and tilted slightly in the direction of the drain tap.

2.5Temperature regulation

The appliance is under water supply pressure (maximum 8 bar). The amount of cold water that is added is equal to the amount of hot water used. The gas control block automatically regulates the gas supply. The main burner will ignite as soon as a reduction in water temperature is sensed by the

thermostat. The main burner will shut down as soon as the preset temperature is achieved.

Position 1 = approximately 30°C Position 2 = approximately 40°C Position 3 = approximately 50°C Position 4 = approximately 60°C Position 5 = approximately 70°C

At high water temperatures there is more scale buildup in the appliance. It is for this reason that it is recommended to place the temperature control knob in position 4 as the accumulation of scale will be reduced. In addition a safety thermostat has been fitted. This thermostat completely shuts off the gas supply if the water temperature reaches 82°C, also extinguishing the pilot burner.
