4.1. Temperature Control
Adjust the desired water temperature using the electronic thermostat knob located on the front panel. Turning the knob clockwise typically increases the temperature, while counter-clockwise decreases it. Refer to the markings on the control panel for specific temperature ranges or modes.
4.2. Intelligent Control and Energy Saving
The intelligent control system learns your hot water usage patterns to optimize heating cycles, reducing energy consumption. This feature automatically adjusts the heating schedule to ensure hot water is available when needed, while minimizing standby losses.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your water heater. Always disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance.
5.1. Anode Inspection and Replacement
The water heater is equipped with a magnesium anode for protection against corrosion. This anode should be inspected periodically (e.g., annually) and replaced as necessary by a qualified technician. The inspection flange allows access to internal components.

5.2. Safety Valve
Periodically check the safety valve for proper operation. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for testing the valve to ensure it releases pressure correctly. Do not block or tamper with the safety valve.
5.3. Cleaning
Clean the exterior of the water heater with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
6. Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your water heater, consult the following common troubleshooting steps. For complex problems, contact a qualified technician.
- No Hot Water: Check the power supply, circuit breaker, and ensure the thermostat is set correctly.
- Insufficient Hot Water: Verify the thermostat setting. If usage has increased, the intelligent control system may need time to adapt, or the capacity might be insufficient for current demand.
- Leaking: Immediately turn off the water supply and power. Leaks can indicate a faulty connection, a damaged tank, or a malfunctioning safety valve. Contact a professional.
- Unusual Noises: Banging or popping sounds may indicate sediment buildup in the tank. Flushing the tank may resolve this, but professional assistance is recommended.
