Youcanchoosefromtwopre-heatingmodes:
Internal Recirculation Mode or External Recirculation Mode. To select a recirculation mode, you must set the ‘Installer Mode’ on the
front control panel.(Refer to the page 33 )
When you use a recirculation mode, there will be some minor efciency loss, as a result of the water heater maintaining a steady
temperature within the recirculation loop.
With the recirculation operation, hot water will be automatically circulated in the hot water pipes. Even with this function activated,
it may take several minutes for hot water to be completely circulated through the plumbing system. Set the timer to activate the
recirculation system prior to the rst use of hot water to ensure hot water is available.
