Commissioning
Before switching on the power supply, ensure the appliance is completely
filled with water by carefully opening and closing the hot water tap until all air
has been eliminated from the water heater and no more air emerges.
Every time the appliance is drained (e.g. after work on the plumbing system
or following repairs to the appliance), the heater must be re-vented in this way
before reconnecting the power supply.
Model DEX only
The maximum power rating of the appliance can be selected from 18, 21, 24
or 27kW at the time of installation. The maximum power rating should only be
selected with reference to the technical data on page 3, after ensuring that
correct cable sizing and fuse protection is in place and with regard to local
site conditions and electrical regulations.
This should only be done by a competent installer.
