• Installation of the water heater in the operation place and arrangement of a power supply 
line shall be performed by a specialized organization, representatives of the manufacturer’s 
service department, or specialists having permits for installation of electrical equipment with 
observations of the safety requirements.
• If the installation/operation instruction manual of the water heater is violated, the appliance 
is not subject to warranty service and the manufacturer does not bear the responsibility.
• Do not install the water heater in a room, where ambient temperature may drop below 0°C
• Never install the water heater outdoors.
• Before installation and connection of the water heater, check and make sure that there is a 
grounding loop in your electrical mains. If there is no grounding loop in your electrical mains, 
operation of the water heater is life-threatening.
 
• Connect the water heater to 220 VAC / 50 Hz mains only. If necessary, clarify specifications of 
your electrical mains from the electrical energy suppliers.
• Never connect the water heater to the electrical mains using a male plug, except for H-IWR1-
3P series. Never use any electrical extension cords.
• Cross section of the electrical cable used for connection to the electrical mains shall meet 
rated current of the water heater.
• Cross section of the electrical cable shall be increased, if the cable and water heater are 
located on a thermally insulated or heating wall.
• Wires of the electrical cable in the terminal block of the water heater and power switchboard 
shall be secured, since a loose connection may result in wire heating, which is very fire 
hazardous.
• Make sure that the electrical cable does not cross sharp edges or contact with hot surfaces.
• Do not connect the grounding loop of the water heater to water/gas supply lines, etc.
• Make sure that electrical wiring is properly connected (including connection to the grounding 
loop).
• Thoroughly follow the connection procedure of the water heater, since improper connection 
will result in its failure and may inflict harm to the user.
• To avoid air pockets and breakdown of the appliance, the water heater shall be installed on a 
wall strictly in horizontal position with its connections downward.
• Do not swap locations of the water inlet and outlet positions, since this will result in break-
down of the water heater or a personal injury (see color marks - blue for water inlet and red 
for water outlet).
• Never install an isolation valve at the water outlet or shut off the water outflow including that 
via bending of the shower hose.
• If the water heater will be used in a bathroom, it is recommended to install it above body 
height so that water splashes do not get onto its housing.
• The water heater shall only be installed and operated with the original accessories provided 
in the package.
