Important instructions for the user

IH electronic LCD

General

- Installation and startup should only ever be performed by an approved installer or authorised installation firm.

- Before using the appliance, please read through these instructions carefully. The manufacturer cannot accept any liability for damage

resulting from failure to follow these instructions.

- Fittings and connecting pipes may get hot. Therefore keep children well

away.

Operating the appliance

The ELECTROLUX IH electronic instantaneous water heater heats the water as the latter continuously flows through it. When the hot water tap is opened, the appliance switches on at a flowrate of around 3 l/min. When the hot water valve is closed or if the flowrate is reduced below 2.5 l/min, the appliance switches itself off again. The appliance is suitable for household use and should only ever be used for heating of drinking water. One or more tapping points can be supplied with hot water.

Temperature preselection

The electronic system allows continuous temperature selection in the range from 30°C to 60°C.

Recommendation for energy-saving operation: 40°C for washbasin, shower, and bath (knob tangibly engages).

55°C for kitchen sink. If this temperature is no longer needed, the appliance should be reset to the 40°C energy-saving level.

CAUTION! When operating with prewarmed water (for example solar-energy plant) the outlet - temperature could be higher than prefixed in the LCDdisplay.

When the appliance is operated with a thermostatic mixer tap, the temperature setting on the instantaneous water heater must be around 8°C higher than on the thermostatic mixer tap.

(*) limited to this figure by the built-in flowlimiter

Up to the appliance’s max. power limit, the instantaneous water heater supplies the set hot water temperature regardless of the water flowrate selected.

If the hot water temperature is not attained when the hot water valve is fully opened, more water flows than can be heated by the appliance power. In this case, the hot water tap must be slightly closed.

The built-in automatic flowlimiter limits the flow in such a way that also with fully opened warm water outlet valve and low cold water inlet temperatures a shower-fair outlet temperature (approx. 40°C) remains.

Because of the different inlet temperatures, the hot water output varies depending on the season. The following outlet flowrates for bath or shower water (40°C) or washbasin/ sink water (55°C) are attained at the inlet temperatures of 6°C, 10°C, and 14°C.

Care and maintenance of the appliance

Clean the plastic housing as necessary with a damp cloth and dilute soap solution. Never use any abrasive, scouring, and solvent-containing detergents. The instantaneous water heater generally needs no maintenance. Regular inspection of the appliance by a trained engineer will ensure its operational reliability and prolong its service life.

bubblers of the fittings or hand shower head must therefore be cleaned from time to time.

Scale deposits in the outlet of fittings reduce the water flowrate. The air

Important instructions for the installer General

The instantaneous water heater is manufactured and tested in conformity with the valid IEC specifications and DIN standards. The appliance complies with the Appliance Safety Act. The indications given on the rating plate, the technical connection specifications of the electricity and water companies in the geographical area concerned, and VDE 0100 and DIN 1988 must be observed when the appliance is being installed. Before all work on the equipment the mains voltage supply must be interrupted.

The specific resistance of the water at the installation site should not be less than 1100
