Use Precautions
Check for gas leaks
1. Check seals between the appliance and the gas container are all the way on
and in a good condition before connecting the gas container.
2. If the O-ring on the POL fitting of the gas hose is missing, damaged or worn,
you must obtain a replacement from an authorized servicer. Suggest replace
the O-ring on the fitting after use 12 months as the life expectancy.
3. For safely check for leaks, spray soapy water on the gas connection to see if
bubbles appear. The information of bubbles indicated a gas leak. If there is a
gas leak present, immediately shut off the gas container and do not try to
operate the appliance. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame.
4. The connection points to check are:
·Between the gas container and the gas hose
·Between the washer and brass parts of the gas hose
·Between the gas hose and the gas connector
·Between the gas connector and the hot water system
5. There is a washer seal inside the gas hose connector. If the washer is missing,
worn or damaged, you must obtain a replacement from an authorized servicer.
6. To check if gas remains in the container, disconnect from the appliance and
hold the gas container in a vertical position then shake from side to side. If
there a sound or feel of liquid movement inside the container contains gas.
7. Change the gas container outside in a well-ventilated location away from
people and ignition sources, such as naked flames, pilot lights and electrical
equipment such as heaters.
07

Avoid Scald
In order to avoid scalding, check the water temperature before showering. During
the use or right after finish, do not touch the outer casing except the knobs to
avoid scald. Children are often injured this way!
Things To Do In An Abnormal Or Emergent
Situation
1. Shut off both the water knob and the gas knob.
2. Do not use shower head.
To prevent accidents like fires, smoke, etc., the gas source, water source must
all be cut off immediately in case any abnormity (like a fuming or smelling
air inlet/ flue gas outlet pipe, etc.) is discovered, and an authorized servicer
must also be contacted.
Uses
Do not use this appliance for any purposes except for producing hot water.
Do not modify this appliance.
No Dismantling The Appliance
To avoid accidents, never dismantle the appliance without authorization.
08

Using Auxiliary Products

6. Storage
a. After using, turn the gas container valve in a clockwise direction to the “off”
(close) position. The burner will continue to operate until all gas has been bled
from the hose and regulator assembly.
b. Wait for the flame to go out, after that to turn the appliance control valve(s) off.
c. Disconnect the shower hose from the “water output”, allow all water to drain out
rom hosing before rolling up and storing away.
d. Disconnect the regulator and hose assembly from the appliance and gas
container and store away.
7. Disconnecting from gas container
1. Check the appliance is fully extinguished, the gas container control valve is in
the fully “off” position and all surfaces are cool enough.
2. Loosen the connection to the gas container in a clockwise direction.
Daily Inspection & Maintenance
The appliance, gas pipes and hoses should be checked and maintained by an
authorized servicer every 6-12 months. If you find joints that are not tightly
secured or if there are cracks or corrosion anywhere, you should stop using the
appliance and perform the necessary maintenance immediately.
Caution
The appliance will still be hot shortly after use. Avoid draining off the residual
water until the water cools down, to avoid being scalded.
Users should regularly using the soapy water to wipe on connecting part of each
pipe to test whether has the gas leakage.
● Clean the accumulated dirt and dust on the casing of the appliance by cloth
regularly. Do not use chemical or volatile solvent.
● Use a neutral detergent to clean all surfaces and areas then wipe it dry. Taking
care not to allow water to enter the top vent.
● Before each use, check the stainless steel filter on the “Water input” pipe is in
place and clean if have any particles.
● Do not submerge the appliance in a sink or container.
● Do not use abrasive cleaners or bleach.
15

Note
Do not drop dirt and dusts into the fire holes of burner and electric parts, do not
loosen or damage other parts as well. To re-fix the parts after cleaning, refer to
the installation requirements.
Drainning The Appliance Avoid Frozen Broken
Below 0°C
1. During the stage of no using, the temperature is same between the inside and
outside of the appliance, the water will expand when temperature reach 0°C,
even broken the water pipe.
2. Operate the drain plug at the base of the appliance to drain off the residual
water from the appliance and then screw it tightly if the environment where the
appliance is installed drops below 0℃. This can prevent the cold from
damaging the appliance. Failure to do so will avoid your warranty.
Before Operate The Drain Plug, Must Be
1. Ensure that the appliance is disconnected from the gas supply.
2. Ensure that the appliance is disconnected from the water supply.
3. Ensure that the shower hose is disconnected from the appliance.
