7.8.2 Typical installation case

Phenomenon
Auto flameout after 45min continuous

use

White flame from exhaust outlet

No hot water flows out immediately after
hot-water faucet is turned on

Difficult ignition for initial use

Forced fan still rotates in the short term
after hot-water faucet is turned off

Cold water flow out when the hot-water
faucet is openned/turned small

Water flows out from the safety valve

Occassional sharp sound during use

8.2 When flame symbol on the control panel disappears

●During use if the flame symbol on the control panel disappeared, it means safety protection be activated.
Display flashes to show the error code from E1 to E8. Then user can know the cause for error and/or

abnormality according to the indicated code.

Cause and countermeasure

Overtime safety protection. Close the hot-water faucet for
several seconds and re-open.

Exhausted fume contains much water steam, it turns white
when contacts cold air outside.

There is certain distance from the water heater to hot-water

faucet, what comes out first is the water residue, so you

need to wait a short while till it’s all drained.

Because there is air in the gas pipe, please turn the faucet
on and off times over, then you’ll make it.

Forced fan is designed with stop lag function in order to

exhaust all flue gas in the combustion chamber.

Hot-water faucet is turned too small (less than startup flux)

so that automatic flameout and the water turns cold.

It’s inappropriate to turn the faucet too small during use.
