2. Drill holes and insert appropriate wall plugs (not always supplied, depending on wall type).
3. Securely fasten the wall mounting bracket to the wall.
4. Carefully lift the water heater and hang it onto the wall mounting bracket. Ensure it is stable and level.

5.3. Sambungan Air

1. Connect the cold water inlet (marked blue) to the main cold water supply using 1/2 inch connectors.
2. Install the supplied safety valve (inlet combination valve) on the cold water inlet line. This valve is crucial for safe operation and must not be omitted.
3. Connect the hot water outlet (marked red) to your hot water distribution system using 1/2 inch connectors.
4. Open the main water supply and check all connections for leaks.
5. Open a hot water tap in your home to allow the tank to fill completely and air to escape. Close the tap once water flows steadily.

5.4. Sambungan elektrik

• The Thermex H 30-U comes with a pre-assembled power cable and plug.
• Plug the appliance into a properly grounded 230V electrical outlet.
• Ensure the electrical circuit is protected by an appropriate fuse or circuit breaker.
• Jangan gunakan penyesuai atau kord sambungan.

6. Arahan Operasi

6.1. Permulaan Permulaan

1. Pastikan tangki pemanas air diisi sepenuhnya dengan air (seperti yang diterangkan dalam Bahagian 5.3).
2. Plug the power cable into the electrical outlet or switch on the dedicated circuit breaker.
3. The indicator light (if present) will illuminate, indicating that the heating process has begun.

6.2. Pelarasan Suhu

The Thermex H 30-U typically features a thermostat control knob, usually located on the front or bottom of the unit. Rotate the knob to adjust the desired water temperature. Higher settings will result in hotter water and consume more energy.

6.3. Operasi Biasa

Once the desired temperature is set, the water heater will automatically heat the water and maintain the set temperature. The heating element will cycle on and off as needed. The heating time for a full 30-liter tank is approximately 65 minutes.

7. Penyelenggaraan

Penyelenggaraan berkala memastikan jangka hayat dan operasi pemanas air anda yang cekap. Sentiasa putuskan bekalan kuasa sebelum melakukan sebarang penyelenggaraan.

7.1. Membersihkan Bahagian Luar

Bersihkan bahagian luar casing dengan lembut, damp kain. Jangan gunakan pembersih yang kasar, pelarut atau bahan kimia yang keras, kerana ini boleh merosakkan permukaan.

7.2. Safety Valve Check

Periodically check the safety valve (inlet combination valve) for proper operation. Refer to the valve manufacturer's instructions for specific testing procedures, typically involving briefly opening the relief lever to ensure water discharges. This helps prevent mineral buildup and ensures the valve can release pressure if necessary.

7.3. Descaling (Professional Service Recommended)

In areas with hard water, mineral deposits (limescale) can accumulate inside the tank and on the heating element, reducing efficiency and lifespan. Descaling should be performed by a qualified technician every 1-2 years, depending on water hardness. This involves draining the tank and removing scale buildup.

7.4. Draining the Tank

If the water heater will be out of use for an extended period or if there is a risk of freezing, the tank should be drained. Disconnect power, close the cold water inlet valve, open a hot water tap, and then open the drain valve (if present) or disconnect the cold water inlet to allow the tank to empty.
