• The TRT044 should be mounted between a quarter and third of the
way up from the base of the tank in a position that gives good access
to the temperature adjustment knob.

7. Operation
• Use the temperature adjustment knob to set the desired temperature.
Note: For vulnerable people it may be advisable to reduce the setting
to as low as +50°C bearing in mind the outlet water temperature
will be somewhat higher than this due to the temperature stratification
in the tank.
