ANTI-CORROSION PROTECTION,MAINTENANCE
AND
SERVICE
Waterheater
with
enameledwater
container.
Each water heater with enameled water container is equipped with an additional anti-
corrosion protection. It consists
of
an anode protector (anode), made
of
a special alloy and
operating only
if
the water tank is filled up with water. Its medium exploitation duration is 3
years. After the expiry
of
this term, a specialist from the company service centers should
perform a check up
of
the anode status. Upon a registered necessity, the anode should be
replaced with a new one. The observance
of
this term and the replacement in due time is an
important condition for extending the efficient protection
of
the water container against
corrosion.

The availability
of
this information device is an important feature
for
the exploitation
of
the
water heater. The testerconsists
of
an
arrowsystem with a scale and a change-overswitch
(button).
The
scaleiswith two
sectors-
a red and agreen one. In normalworking condition
of
the
water
heater, the arrow
of
the tester is located in the red sector-the tester
is
~
turned on and
the
anode
is
properlyoperating. The check-up
ofthe
anodeefficiency

is performed when water is completelyheated up(thermostat
cut
off
-lighting key =
turned off) by pushing
the
button
of
the tester for a few seconds.
The
arrow will e
deviate in the green sector direction
of
the scale. The value
of
the deviation
is
strongly influenced
by
the
parameters
of
water
and itstemperature, asthe limit between the
two
sectorscorrespondstotheaveragevalues
of

for
theefficiency
of
theanode
is the deviation
of
the arrow. When
by
pushing the button
of
the tester, the arrow does not
deviate
or
remains in the beginning
of
the red sector, you should contactthe specialistsfrom
the

For
reliable operation
of
the water heaters in regions with high content
of
limestone in the
water, we recommend the waterheaterto be cleaned up from limestone once peryear. The

dry
cottoncloth
without using any hard devices. This is not a subject
to
warranty service and should be
performed only
by
aqualified and competentspecialist.
During the operation
of
the
water
heater, it
is
necessaryto performminimal, butveryimportant
preventive actions. These are described in details in p. 7, 9 and 10 from section .Important
rules"
of
thepresentmanual.
IMPORTANTRULES
1.
Thewaterheateris meantfordomesticpurposesin the household. Itis used
for
heatingthe
water from
the
common water main system. Its composition and parameters should be
within the scope
of
the defined
by
the relative regulations regarding the legislation for
domestic water
as
the composition
of
chlorides is less than 250 mg/I, and the electrical
conductivity is more than 100 µSiem but less than 2000 µSiem for water heaters with
enameledwatertanks; and lessthan600µSiem
for
waterheaterswith
water
tanksmade
of
chrome-nickelsteel.
2. Water heater
is
installed and used only in fire-safeguarded places and in conditions,
corresponding to itslevel
of
protectionagainst
water
penetration.Otherwise,adefect
of
the
appliancewill be caused dueto non-observance
of
thepresentmanual
for
installation and
operation. This defect will not be within the scope
