5. Operating Instructions

Once properly installed and connected, operating your Veito FLOW Instant Water Heater is straightforward.

5.1 Initial Start-up

Ensure the water supply is turned on and water is flowing through the unit.
Turn on the electrical power to the water heater at the circuit breaker.

5.2 Temperature Adjustment

The water heater features a rotary knob on the front panel (refer to Figure 1). Rotate this knob to adjust the desired water temperature. Turning the knob clockwise typically increases the temperature, while counter-clockwise decreases it.

5.3 Water Flow

The instant water heater activates when water flows through it. For optimal heating performance, ensure a consistent water flow. Excessive flow rates may result in cooler water temperatures, especially in colder climates or during winter months.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the efficiency and extends the lifespan of your water heater.

Cleaning: Periodically wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Inlet Filter: Check and clean the inlet water filter periodically to prevent blockages and maintain optimal water flow. Turn off the water supply and power before accessing the filter.
Descaling: In areas with hard water, mineral deposits (limescale) can build up inside the heating elements. If you notice a decrease in heating efficiency or water flow, professional descaling may be required. This should only be performed by a qualified technician.
Winterization: If the unit is in an unheated area and there is a risk of freezing, drain the water heater completely to prevent damage.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Veito FLOW Instant Water Heater, refer to the following table for common problems and solutions.

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
No hot water / Water is only lukewarm	No power supply Water flow too high Inlet water temperature too low Heating element malfunction Overheating protection activated	Check circuit breaker and power connection. Reduce water flow at the faucet. This unit provides instant heating, but extreme cold inlet water may limit maximum output temperature. Contact a qualified technician. Turn off power, wait 10 minutes, then restore power. If it trips again, contact a technician.
Water pressure is low	Clogged inlet filter Plumbing blockage	Clean the inlet filter (refer to Maintenance section). Inspect plumbing for obstructions.
Water leaks from the unit	Loose plumbing connections Internal damage	Tighten connections (do not overtighten). Immediately turn off water and power supply. Contact a qualified technician.
