NOTE:

The water heater is an appliance, operating in such a manner that pressure of water in the water heater corresponds to the pressure of water in water main. If pressure in the main exceeds 0.8 MPa, then it is necessary to mount a pressure reducer before the water heater so that pressure doesn’t exceed 0.8 MPa.

Fig. 7

1. The electric water heater must be mounted on a solid wall. If wall strength

doesn’t allow to bear the double weight of the total water heater weight fully filled with water, then it should be mounted on a special support.

2. After you chose the proper place to install the water heater, determine

points for holes for anchor hook bolts (to be determined in accordance with the data sheet for the appliance you chose). Drill two holes of the corresponding depth in the wall using a drill, dimensionally fit for anchor bolts, enclosed with the water heater.

Then insert bolts into the drilled holes, and, turning bolt hooks clockwise, securely tighten bolt nuts, then hang the water heater on these anchor bolt hooks (see Fig. 7).

3. Fix a power outlet to the wall. Requirements to the outlet are as follows:

220V/10A, single-phase, three-wired. It is recommended to place the outlet on the right side above the water heater.

NOTE:

In places or on the wall, where there may be a water contact, the power outlet installation height must be not less than 1.8 m.

Connection to water main

1. The heater must be connected to water main with at least 0.1 MPa

pressure; maximum pressure is 0.75 MPa.

www.timberk.com • electrical storage water heater

2. G1/2 diameter pipes are used to connect the water heater to the water pipeline.

3. To prevent a leakage when connecting pipes, use rubber sealing gaskets on the threaded pipe ends.

4. Screw a relief valve to the inlet nozzle, marked blue and embossed arrow of the water flow direction, so that the water flow direction coincides with direction of the arrow on the valve’s case.

NOTE:

Do not mount additional accessories, such as a shut-off valve, between the relief valve and the inlet nozzle.

5. Water heater with the mounted valve must be connected to the water main – install a shut-off valve at the water inlet point. You need to connect a drain pipe to the opening of the pressure relief of safety valve. Next you should put a drain pipe to the sewer.

6. Connect the desired number of consumption points to the outlet nozzle, marked red.

7. Open the shut-off tap and one of the tap assemblies. After the tank is filled with water, as evidenced by issue of water from the cock assembly, shut the cock assembly and check the leak integrity of all joints.

IMPORTANT!

If water in the installation location contains a large amount of calcium, manganese or iron salts, then necessary to mount a respective filter in the delivery system to reduce the amount of scale generated in the tank and on the heating element.

Connection to electric main

IMPORTANT!

To provide reliable operation and safe use of the water heater, prior to the first run check if it is properly connected to the 220V~ AC mains. The water heater to be connected must be securely linked with the earth circuit of your electric mains. The waterheater must be grounded properly, otherwise it is extremly dangerous for life safety.

IMPORTANT!

Prior to connecting the tank water heater, make sure that the water heater is properly grounded. Proper grounding is important to minimize electric shocks and risk of fire. The power cord is equipped with a plug with a grounding pin. The appliance must be used with a properly grounded power outlet. If the outlet, you are intending to use, is not properly grounded or grounded by a time-delay fuse or a circuit breaker, contact a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet.

1. The water heater is designed to be connected to 220V~ single-phase electric main. Prior to connecting make sure that parameters of the electric main in the place of connection correspond to parameters, specified on the identification plate with technical parameters of the appliance. You should follow the current electrical safety code when installing the water heater.

2. The power outlet must be properly grounded. The outlet must be designed for rated current not less than 10A, electric cable with copper core must have cross section not less than 3x1.5 mm

The power outlet and plug must always be dry to prevent current leakage. Regularly check if the power plug is tightly connected to the outlet. Do it in the following order: insert the power plug into the outlet, switch off the water heater after half-hour operation and unplug the cord, check if the plug is heated by your hand. If the plug is heated over 50°C, then to prevent damages, accidents and fire as a result of bad electrical contact, replace the outlet with a new one. A specialist must do this.

IMPORTANT!

The outlet must be designed for rated current not less than 10A, electric cable with copper core must have cross section not less than 3x1.5 mm2 (for copper).

3. Turn the thermostate handle (7) (fig. 4) clockwise and set the desirable

temperature. The temperature can be set from +35°C (±5°С) (MIN» position of the thermostat knob) up to 75°C (±5°С) (rightmost position of the thermostat knob). To reduce the water temperature turn the handle anticlockwise.

4. Water temperature keeps up by the thermostate automatically. When

water temperature reach the set level, Heating is automatically switched off. At that, the indicator lamp in the lower part of the appliance extinguishes. When the temperature be lower then set, the heating will automaticlly start again and the indicator lamp lights up.

5. To turn off the waterheater, turn the handle to the closest left position

«Off» and unplug the power cord or disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

IMPORTANT!

Water can start to drip from the opening of safety valve then heating process is going. It’s impossible to avoid leakage of water and you can’t prevent this! Locking of valve may cause rupture of the inner tank in case of failure.

IMPORTANT!

«♥» position on the control panel corresponds to the optimum water heating temperature of 58 +/-2°C, at which:

1. The user is less likely to get burned in case when the outlet water temperature is incorrectly adjusted.

2. A sufficient amount of hot water is obtained after mixing with cold water, at a lesser power energy consumption.

3. Less scale is generated on the heating element and internal surfaces of the water heater.

9. MAINTENCE

1. Check the power plug and outlet as often as possible. Secure electrical contact and also proper grounding must be provided. The plug and outlet must not heat excessively.

2. If the water heater is not used for a long time, especially in regions with low air temperature (below 0°C), it is necessary to drain water from the heater to prevent damage of the water heater (due to water freezing in the internal tank).

3. To ensure long reliable water heater operation, it is recommended to regularly clean the internal tank and remove deposits on the electric heating element of the water heater, as well as check condition (fully decomposed or not) of the magnesium anode and, if necessary, replace it with a new one in case of full decomposition.

4. Tank cleaning frequency depends on hardness of water located in this territory. Cleaning must be performed by special maintenance services. You can ask the seller for address of the nearest service center or find it on the website www.timberk.com.

IMPORTANT!

The manufacturer provides an extended guarantee for particular water heater components provided that timely and proper routine maintenance is performed by specialists of an authorized service center (see the guarantee slip).

Preventive operations must be performed upon strict observance of the operation manual and safety precautions.

5. The water heater is equipped with a thermal switch, which cuts off power supply of the heating element upon water overheating or its absence in the water heater. If the water heater is connected to the mains, but water is not heated and the indicator doesn’t light up, then the thermal switch was switched off or not switched on. To reset the water heater to the operating condition, it is necessary to:

- de-energize the water heater, remove the plate of the side / lower cover.

- press the button, located at the center of the thermal switch, Fig.10 ;

- if the button is not pressed and there is no clicking, then you should wait until the thermal switch cools down to the initial temperature.

IMPORTANT!

If these actions had no positive result or the thermal switch turns off repeatedly during a short period of time, then you should de-energize the water heater, cut off water supply and contact your local Timberk Authorized Service Center for a consult or repair of the appliance.

6. Water can be drained through a composite relief valve (Fig.9 ) (unscrew

the composite relief valve drain knob screw and set the drain knob to the upper position, at that hot water tap must be open, and cold water supply valve must be closed).

IMPORTANT!

Never drain water if its temperature is over 50°C since it may result in burns.

7. Bear in mind to check serviceability of the relief valve every 14 days –

inspection method:

- turn the discharge lever to the left up until you feel the change of thread,

then water must start flowing from the valve’s hole. After checking the water flow, return the lever to its initial position.

IMPORTANT!

If water doesn’t flow, then the valve is damaged. In this case you must not use the heater and it is recommended to call for a service technician.
