7. IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES
When installing the appliance, follow the dimensional drawings and any included caution labels.
NOTE: Be sure to take into account the weight of the water heater filled (with the rated capacity) when selecting a moun-
ting location so as not to overload the bearing area.
For acceptable distance from combustion devices, refer to the manufacturer's documentation as well as the prevailing codes.
If a water heater is fitted with additional cladding, or is located in small, narrow areas or between walls, be sure that all con-
nections (water fittings, electrical connection space and any installed heater) remain freely accessible and that no heat can
accumulate. A clear area of 500mm must be provided for a heating flange.
When selecting and arranging the materials used for installing the appliance, use caution and consider possible electro-
chemical reactions (mixed installation!). The pipelines must be potential-compensated according to DIN 50927.
This type of corrosion results in formation of corrosion elements. In corrosion elements there is a voltage present between the
anode and cathode area. The resulting processes are mutually dependent, but can take place at various distances from each
other. Corrosion elements may occur due to differing potentials, as is the case with contact corrosion. This means various
metals come into electrical contact with each other through an ion-conducting medium (water).
If especially aggressive water is present which requires installation-side special solutions, the possible necessity of special
versions of the water heater should also be considered (ask one of our representatives or contact us directly).
Non-observance of this specification may be considered improper use and result in voiding of the warranty.
This device is not designed to be used by persons (including children) with physical, sensory or mental disabilities or lacking
experience and/or lacking knowledge, unless these are supervised by a person who is responsible for their safety or have
received instructions on how to use this device from any such person. Children should be supervised in order to ensure that
they do not play with this device.
The operator of the system must ensure that there is no hazard to persons from spraying with hot water, especially when
non-trained persons use the appliance.
