Water Temperature Adjustment

Adjusting the User Interface Module/Operational Modes

Water Temperature Adjustment

The water temperature can be adjusted from 95°F to 150°F.

Use the Up and Down Buttons Operating Mode DescriptionsOther Controls on the front panel to set the desired temperature.

IMPORTANT: Before attempting to adjust the thermostat, read the “Water Temperature Regulation” section. If the instructions are not clear, contact a qualified person.

IMPORTANT: Filling a spa or hot tub from this water heater may result in extended recovery/re-heat time. Switching (temporarily) to Hybrid Mode or Electric Mode will decrease the recovery/re-heat time. Be sure to switch back to the desired operational mode when finished.

Operating Mode Descriptions

The operating modes can be changed by touching the desired mode icon on the User Interface Module (see Figure 10.)

NOTE: All buttons on the User Interface are touch sensitive and require only a light touch to actuate.

 

 

 

 

 

Efficiency Mode - Is the most energy efficient

EFFICIENCY

mode. This mode uses the heat pump to heat water

 

 

 

 

 

in the tank. The elements are not used unless the

 

 

 

 

 

ambient operating temperature is below 45°F or

 

 

 

 

 

above 109°F. If hot water demands are not met in

 

 

 

 

 

Efficiency Mode it may be necessary to switch to

 

 

 

 

 

Hybrid Mode.

 

 

 

 

 

Hybrid Mode (recommended setting) - Combines

 

 

 

 

 

HYBRID

high energy efficiency with reduced recovery time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This mode uses the heat pump as the primary

 

 

 

 

 

heating source. The heating element will heat

 

 

 

 

 

water if demand exceeds a predetermined level so

 

 

 

 

 

that the set point temperature can be recovered

 

 

 

 

 

more quickly.

 

 

 

 

 

Electric Mode - The water heater functions as a

 

 

 

 

 

ELECTRIC

conventional electric unit, relying totally on the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

elements to heat the water in the tank. This mode

 

 

 

 

 

may be useful in winter to eliminate the output of

 

 

 

 

 

cold air from the unit.

 

 

 

 

 

Vacation Mode - The controller adjusts the water

VACATION

temperature to approximately 60°F. This mode is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

recommended when the water heater is not in use

 

 

 

 

 

for a long period of time. This mode minimizes

 

 

 

 

 

energy consumption and prevents the water heater

 

 

 

 

 

from freezing during cold weather.

Other Controls

Lock - Holding this button for more than 3 seconds switches the lock mode on or off. When the User Interface Module is locked a symbol and “Lock” text will be visible on the display (see Figure 10).

°F/°C °F/°C - The button switches the display to show the set temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
