Battery for electronic ignition and control
module
A long life 1.5 Volt "D" size battery is supplied
with the appliance and should have been tted by
your installer.
If the battery runs at, replace it with a new 1.5
Volt "D" size battery. Long life batteries are
recommended. The battery compartment is
located on the left hand side at the bottom of
the appliance. Approximate battery life is 6 to
12 months. Actual battery life may be di󰀨erent
depending on individual hot water usage patterns.
1. Locate the battery compartment and open
the hinged lid (opens towards the rear of
appliance).
2. Remove the expired battery and replace it
with a new battery ensuring that the correct
polarity is observed, as is shown on the
inside of the battery compartment lid.
3. Close the battery compartment lid.

WATER FLOW AND TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Water xtures with a rated water ow rate of 7.5 litres per minute or higher are recommended.
A water ow adjustment lever is tted to adjust the maximum water ow from the appliance. Such adjustment may
be useful to compensate for seasonal variations in the temperature of the cold water supply.
Turning the water ow adjustment lever towards the left (Clockwise) will decrease the water ow and
increase the hot water temperature. This setting is recommended during winter.
Turning the water ow adjustment lever towards the right (Anti-clockwise) will increase the water ow and
decrease the hot water temperature. This setting is recommended during summer.
If the heated water temperature delivered from an outlet is not hot enough it can normally be increased to
the desired temperature by closing the tap a little as this will reduce the water ow rate.
The appliance has a minimum water ow rate that is required for operation. If the water heater does not
activate when opening a tap, the ow rate may be too low. Open the tap a little more to increase the water
ow rate.
FREEZING WEATHER
WARNING
This water heater MUST NOT be installed in areas where the temperature remains below 0°C for
extended periods.
If freezing conditions are expected (drop below 0°C), turn o󰀨 water and gas and drain all water from the appliance
to prevent damage by expansion of freezing water.
For appliances installed in locations where the temperature falls below 0°C for short periods, the installation of an
Anti Freezing Relief Valve (Exogel or equivalent brand) will minimise the possibility of damage to the appliance.
This is not supplied with the water heater.

TESTING
1. Before nal connection of the water heater purge
gas, hot water and cold water supply lines. Swarf in
either the gas or water supplies may cause damage or
malfunction which is not covered by warranty.
2. See Table 1 for connection size, water and gas
pressure specications.
3. Turn on gas and cold water supplies.
4. Test for water leaks and gas escapes.
5. Isolate gas and water supplies. Remove test point
screw located on the regulator inlet pressure test point
and attach pressure gauge Fig. 1.
6. Turn on gas and open hot water taps fully. Ensure
water ow lever is in the maximum ow position. Refer
to "Water Flow and Temperature Adjustment" on page
8.
7. With all gas appliances in operation at maximum gas
rate, the pressure at the regulator inlet pressure test
point should read between 1.13 - 3.0 kPa on Natural
Gas. On LPG the pressure should be 2.75 - 3.0 kPa.
If the pressure is lower, the gas supply is inadequate
and the appliance will not operate to specication. It
is the Installers responsibility to check the gas meter,
service regulator and pipe work for correct operation/
sizing and rectify as required.
NOTE
If the sparker activates but the pilot and main
burner do not light, then the gas pressure at
the outlet of the regulator is too low.
Increase the pressure at the outlet of the
regulator by slowly turning the adjustment
screw clockwise until a suitable pilot ame
and main burner ame are established.
8. Replace the test point screw on the regulator inlet
pressure test point.
9. Isolate gas and water supplies. Remove the test point
screw located to the burner pressure test point on the
left hand side of burner manifold as shown right and
attach pressure gauge Fig. 2
10. Turn on the gas and open hot water taps fully. Ensure
the water ow lever is in the maximum ow position.
11. For burner test point pressures refer to the appliance
data plate. If the pressures are di󰀨erent adjust the inlet
gas regulator to achieve the required burner test point
pressures.
12. Close all hot water taps including the shower.
13. Inspect and clean the strainer located on the cold
water inlet connection. This procedure may need
to be repeated to ensure the strainer remains clear,
especially on new installations Fig. 3.
14. After testing is completed, explain to the householder
the functions and operation of the water heater.
