The upper heating element 2

enables only a limited amount

of water (H) to be heated.

Thissystem givesyou asmaller

amount of hot water (about

20 ÷ 30% of the total capacity)

in a shorter time thus reducing

consumption.

Use the “BOOSTER” key for

this function.

The temperature in area His preset to the maximum thermostat temperature setting

and is controlled by means of the changeover switch thermostat probe 7. When normal

running operations are set (“NORMAL”total heating), the lower water heating element 1

switches on so that all the water inside the appliance is heated (H+L).

Water temperatureis controlled bytheoperational thermostat8according to theposition

of the adjustment knob (fig. 5).

• Install the appliance at a minimum height of

over 1 m. Above floor level, so that the re-

sistances can be removed.

Use the rawl plugs Ksupplied with the appli-

ance to fasten the support hooks Gto the wall.

GENERAL WARNINGS

INSTALLATION

5.1 HOW TO FASTEN TO THE WALL

SEM0510-140

SEM0510-130

• Use pipes that will resist operative pressure as well as hot water tempera-

tures that can normally rise to and even exceed 80°C to connect the water

heater intake and output.It is inadvisable, therefore, to use materials that will

not withstand this kind of temperature.

• Screw a pipe connection Kon to the appliance water inlet Imarked with a

blue ring.

• A tap Bto empty the water heater must be screwed on one side of the pipe

connection. A special tool must be used to turn this tap. A safety valve A

supplied with the appliance must be screwed on to the other side of the con-

nection.

• Connect the latter to the mains cold water pipe by means of a hose pipe F.

Also install a drain pipe Cto be used if the tap Bis opened.

• When the safety valve is screwed on, take care not to force it as far as it will

go and do not tamper with it.

A slight drip is normal during heating; we therefore advise you to connect the

valve to a drain by means of a small pipeE.A discharge pipe E connected to the

pressure relief device is to be installed in a continuously downward direction

and in a frost-free ambient.

If the mains pressure should be similar to the valve pressure setting, a pressure

reducer should be installed as far away as possible from the appliance.

• Fill the water heater and make sure there are no leaks.

• In order to empty the water heater close the main intake tap, open the hot

water tap and the drain tap B.

5.2 PLUMBING

• electricalwiringmustcom-

ply with what is specified

in paragraph 5.3;

• the safety valve supplied

with the appliance must

not be tampered with and

must not be replaced at

the time of installation;

•

installationmustbecarried

outby qualifiedpersonnel;

• the mains supply must be

the same as that given in

thedataontheratingplate

showing the characteris-

tics of the appliance;

• theearth mustbeinstalled

correctly;

•

do not use extensions or

pressurereducing devices.

SEM0510-110

The appliance must be connected to the

mainssupply bymeansofa differentialtwo-

pole magnetothermal switch (30 mA) in

compliancewiththe currentIECstandards

(contact opening of at least 3 mm, prefer-

ably equipped with fuses), or by means of

the plug.

This switch must be used each time the

appliancehasto be disconnectedfromthe

mains supply.

The appliance is equipped with an H05VV-F

tipe cable with a cross-section of 3x1,5 mm

and a diameter of 8,5 mm.

The yellow-green earth wire must be

slightly longer than the phase wires.

Before start-up make sure that the mains

voltage is the same as the value marked

on the appliance rating plate.

5.3 WIRING

5.4 USEFUL INFORMATION

If, after a certain period of time, no hot water comes out of the taps, before contacting

your Technical Assistance Service make sure that the plumbing and electrical wiring is

as described in the relevant paragraphs.

If the electricity is cut off to the lower heating element, the amount of hot water available

is 20 ÷ 30% of the total capacity ("BOOSTER" running).

You should still contact yourTechnical Assistance Service.

The level of water hardness must never fall below 12° FR for the galvanic protection

system to work well.

• Open the main tap of your home water supply as well as the hot water tap until all the

air has come out of the appliance; when only water starts to come out, close the hot

water tap.

• Make sure there are no leaks.

• Insert the plug into the mains and switch on the machine; if the appliance has a wall

control panel, turn the switch to I(ON).
