4. WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF FAILURE
4.1 General
If faults occur, check the following points:
Overheat thermostat
The water heaters are equipped with an overheating
cut-out, which, in the case of a too high water
temperature, interrupts the current supply to
the burner, as a result of which the gas valves in the
gas block are closed and the gas supply is cut off.
The overheating cut-out remains activated until the
water temperature drops below the overheating
cut-out’s switching-off point. Then the water
heater can be turned on again by resetting
the overheating cut-out. Next set the control
thermostat to a lower water temperature,
(see figure 8).
Water temperature too high:
Check if the control thermostat has been set too high.
Wrong hot water temperature:
1. Check the control thermostat setting;
2. Check that there are no leaks or if any taps are
open.
