• This unit is not to be permanently plumbed into a mains

water system. • Before using the appliance, it is important to prepare it by installing the correct

adaptors to suit the intended use (for example, mains water supply). • THIS APPLIANCE SHALL ONLY BE

USED WITH A PROPANE GAS CYLINDER CERTIFIED TO AS 2469 FITTED WITH POL CONNECTIONS

ONLY. IT MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO FIT ANY OTHER TYPES OF GAS CONTAINERS. • If using a water input

source through a low voltage pump, refer to the pump instruction manual. • Typically, connect the pump inlet to

the water supply (for example, bucket of water) and connect the pump outlet to the appliance cold water inlet

connection. Connect the pump to the power supply (for example, vehicle 12V system) and switch it on. • It is

recommended to use a shower hose no less than 2 meters long.

1. Remove all the components from the packaging.

2. Insert 2 D-size batteries into the battery compartment on the underside of the unit and close the

compartment. The appliance cannot be operated without batteries.

3. Attach the gas connection to the underside of the unit in the manner shown for your type of connector below.

4. Connect the regulator end of the gas bottle hose to the gas bottle - ensure that the regulator has the

rubber seal installed. Rotate the securing nut on the regulator left (anti-clockwise) to connect to the gas

bottle. Firmly tighten by hand only.

5. Wrap 6 to 8 rotations of plumbers / Teflon tape clockwise around the thread of the cold water inlet, then

connect the water supply hose to it. If you are using spanners to connect the water supply hose - use 2

spanners - one to hold the nut on the cold water inlet connector and prevent it from twisting, and the other to

tighten the hose connector. Take care not to over-tighten as this could damage the unit. If the water supply

uses a standard garden hose fitting, install the supplied male garden hose connection to the cold water inlet

and tighten by hand.

6. Connect the shower head hose to the hot water outlet. It is optional but recommended to use plumbers /

Teflon tape. Firmly tighten by hand only.

THM-12P MkII Gas Water Heater with Pump

Operation

• Position the gas cylinder away and to the side of the

appliance; never place the gas cylinder directly beside or above the appliance. • Use a suitable

and sturdy, non-combustible object to hang the appliance from. The appliance must have a minimum clearance

of 500mm on each side and 1000mm from the top to any combustible surface, fabric, flammable material,

people etc. • Before use, check the gas connections for leaks - do NOT use a flame. Coat all connections with

soapy water, then turn the gas supply ON (rotate gas bottle valve left / anti-clockwise 1 full turn) and observe the

connections; if any bubbling can be seen, gas is leaking. If a leak is detected, turn the gas supply OFF and

check and re-tighten all connections, then re-test. Once you determine that there are no leaks present, turn the

gas supply OFF. • The appliance requires sufficient water pressure in order to ignite the burners. If the water

supply pressure drops or is turned off, the burners will shut off automatically. • The appliance is designed for

source water temperatures of 20°C or less and is generally capable of raising the water temperature by

approximately 25°C, up to a maximum of 50°C. • If the output water temperature exceeds 50°C, the burners will

shut off automatically. To re-ignite the burners, turn off the water supply off, then on again. • Some accessible

parts of the appliance may be very hot after use. • NOT ALLOWED: (i) installation or permanent mounting

(ii) connection to a fixed piping system for water or gas (iii) connection to a flue system. • IMPORTANT:

The appliance is not suitable for installation or connection to a reticulated gas supply. • NOT FOR

PERMANENT INSTALLATION. DO NOT CONNECT TO FIXED GAS OR WATER PIPING.

1. Ensure that the gas and water supplies are correctly connected and there are no gas leaks.

2. Place the flow regulation switch on the shower head in the OFF position.

3. Turn the gas supply ON (rotate gas bottle valve 1 left / anti-clockwise 1 full turn).

4. Set the gas flow rate control to the MAX position, and the water outlet flow rate control to the MIN position.

5. Set the water temperature limiter control to the SUMMER position of the ambient temperature is above 6°C,

or WINTER if the temperature is below 6°C.

6. Place the ON / OFF switch in the ON position.

7. Turn the water supply ON (for example, tap or pump). Water should NOT flow from the shower head.

8. When ready, place the flow regulation switch on the shower head in the ON position. Water will start to flow

through the shower head within a few seconds. Once there is sufficient water pressure and flow through the

appliance, the burners will ignite automatically (you should hear a series of clicks as they are ignited). The

burner flame can be seen through the appliance "viewing window".

9. After a short time, the output water temperature will increase - the temperature display shows the current

water temperature - adjust the temperature as required using the gas and water flow rate controls - for

higher temperatures, increase the gas flow rate and decrease the water flow rate. Caution: Test the water

temperature at the shower head, as it may be hot enough to cause injury.

10. When finished, turn OFF the gas supply, however, leave the water flowing through the shower head - when

the burners shut off, all gas has been removed from the plumbing. Then, place the flow regulation switch on

the shower head in the OFF position and turn the water supply OFF. Place the appliance ON / OFF switch in

the OFF position.

11. Recommended cylinder size to use:4kg and 9kg.

Troubleshooting

This guide should be followed in case of failure of the appliance to

operate correctly. If symptoms persist, contact customer service from where the appliance was purchased.

WARNING! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR OR MODIFY THE APPLIANCE

Problem Solution

The burners will not ignite

Make sure you have new batteries installed in the correct position. Check the cap of the

bat

tery case for instructions on how they should be installed.

Check for sufficient water pressure. The unit must have a minimum of approximately 15

kPa of sustained water pressure to activate the burners.

Check that the water inlet filter screen is clean. To flush the system, you can reverse the

water connections by taking the water inlet pipe and connecting it to the water outlet pipe.

Check that the appliance ON / OFF switch and shower head flow regulator is in the

ON position.

Water flows through the

unit but is not hot.

New batteries may be required for the ignition switch. Verify that the batteries are aligned

i

n the proper polarity (+-). Check the battery case for instructions on how to install the

batteries properly.

Check that the water pressure is at least 15 kPa to activate the burners.

Ensure that the gas supply is correctly connected and that there is adequate gas in

the cylinder.

Verify that the water supply inlet and outlet are connected properly. The shower head

should be attached to the water outlet and the water supply connected to the water inlet.

Water is not hot enough.

Adjust the gas regulator and water regulator to the desired temperature. To increase

t

emperature; turn the gas regulator control toward MAX and the water regulator control

toward MIN.

Check the source water temperature. If the source water temperature is too cold then you

may need to "cycle" the water through the system back into the water source reservoir

then through the appliance again to reach desired temperature.

Check if there is a blue flame in the "viewing window". If you see a yellow flame it could

mean a breakdown in the gas regulator. If this is the case, STOP using the appliance

immediately and contact customer service.

The unit starts for a short

amount of time and then

shuts off

Ensure the gas cylinder is not empty. If using a new cylinder; cycle the appliance on and

of

f several times by using the shower head switch to purge any air from the gas lines.

This unit activates at a sustained water pressure of 25 kPa. If your water supplies water

pressure is below the minimum the unit will not ignite.

Make sure the water heater is protected from strong winds that may be extinguishing the

burners.
