Before connect ing t his equipm ent t o t he m ains elect ricit y supply, exam ine t he inform at ion on t he apparat us rat ing label. Ensure t hat t he m ains supply is single phase alt ernat ing current ( ac) of t he st at ed frequency ( Hz) , wit h neut ral nom inally at eart h pot ent ial. Check t hat t he supply volt age is in t he range st at ed on t he rat ing label. The equipm ent rat ing label st at es t he value of t he fuse fit t ed t o t he apparat us it self. Ensure t hat t he plug or out let circuit is fit t ed wit h an appropriat e fuse of higher value.

CORRESPON D EN CE I n t he event of any correspondence concerning t his equipm ent , please quot e t he cat alogue num ber and serial num ber shown on t he rat ing label t oget her wit h t he volt age and frequency of t he local m ains elect ricit y supply. This will help t o process your enquiry quickly. Any spare part s which m ay be required, are supplied on t he underst anding t hat t he replacem ent of t hese requiring t he exposure of live elect rical connect ions will be undert aken by an elect rically qualified person. Mot or driven appliances should not be run unless all covers have been properly replaced. POSI TI ON I N G AN D SETTI N G UP ( A) Posit ion Posit ion t he silver unit in a well vent ilat ed area wit h access t o m ains cold wat er inlet supply and drain and near a 13 am p single phase 50Hz 220/ 240v a.c. supply socket .

( C) Ele ct r ica l Re qu ir e m e n t s A single 13 am p 220/ 240v 50Hz single phase socket will be required. I t m ust be properly eart hed and it is recom m ended t hat an eart h leakage ( RCCD) device should be fit t ed in case of heat er breakage - available from us if required at £16.50 ( part num ber 161053) ( D ) M a in s W a t e r Su pply ( Spr a y W a sh ) The Silver unit is supplied wit h a washing m achine hose and t hreaded washing m achine t ype t ap. One end of t he hose is connect ed t o t he m ains wat er inlet at t he back of t he unit and t he ot her end is connect ed t o t he t hreaded end of t he t ap which should first be fit t ed t o a st andard 15m m copper pipe supplying cold wat er at a m inim um pressure of 1.5 Bar by m eans of it s com pression t ype fit t ing.
W a t e r W a st e Ou t le t ( Spr a y W a sh ) The unit is supplied wit h a st andard 32m m push fit t ype T piece wit h a blanking plug in one side of t he T. From here t he unit can be plum bed int o a suit able drain using st andard 32m m polypropylene pipe and push fit j oint s. N.B. I f you experience difficult y get t ing t he pipe or j oint s we can supply t hese.

Pr e - Te st I n order t o ensure t he unit has suffered no dam age in t ransit it is best t o t est t he unit wit h wat er first prior t o filling t he t anks wit h chem icals. For This Reason: ( 1 ) Fill each t ank wit h wat er t o 10m m from shoulder where t he lid sit s on. ( 2 ) Swit ch on t he green m ains ON/ OFF swit ch which should illum inat e. ( 3 ) Check all t he funct ions are working by depressing all t he funct ion swit ches. Leave t hese swit ches on and allow t he t anks t o reach t heir operat ing t em perat ures of 40- 50º C, 25- 30º C, 20- 30º C, 60º C and 30- 40º C respect ively, when t he orange indicat or light will t hen go out . N .B. I t is im port ant t hat t hese t em perat ures are correct and alt hough fact ory set t hey could change depending on t he am bient t em perat ure. I f t his is t he case open t he cabinet doors and you will see a whit e bracket fixed t o each heat ed t ank t o which t he t herm ost at cont roller is fixed. To alt er t he t em perat ure t urn t he brass cont rol spindle ant i- clockwise t o decrease and clockwise t o increase. N .B. I f you decrease when t he heat er is on, t he orange heat er indicat or light will go out and if you increase when t he heat er is off, t he orange indicat or light will go on. ( 4 ) Leave t he heat ed t anks on and preferably t urn t he unit off at t he end of t he day and leave st anding overnight . ( 5 ) Check t he next m orning t hat t here have been no leaks and ensuring all funct ion swit ches are in t he OFF posit ions em pt y t he t anks t hrough drain t aps provided and rem ove any excess wat er in t he bot t om s wit h paper t owels. N .B. I n all cases before filling t he t anks m ake sure t hat t he drain hose rat chet clips and drain t aps are closed and t hat t he t aps have been clipped back int o t he clips provided. The t anks are now ready t o be filled wit h t he chem icals as shown below.
