2. സുരക്ഷാ മുൻകരുതലുകൾ
Your safety is paramount. Please adhere to the following precautions to prevent accidents and ensure proper functioning of the geyser:
- Ensure water supply before turning on the geyser.
- Do not install the geyser yourself. Installation must be performed by a skilled electrician or qualified technician.
- There should be no inflammable material around the geyser.
- Turn OFF the power supply when the geyser is not in use or during maintenance.
- Read the manual carefully before installing the geyser.
- Install the geyser at the appropriate height on the wall, ensuring it is securely mounted.
- Always ensure the water heater is completely full with water before switching on the power supply. To ensure this, open the outlet and inlet valve fully until there are no air pockets or bubbles in the water flowing out of the outlet valve.
- The hexagonal safety valve (pressure relief valve) fitted on the coupling on the inlet pipe will take care of any positive pressure exceeding 3.5 kg/cm² (50 p.s.i.) by opening and starting to drip. Do not block this valve.
- If a hydro-pneumatic water pump supplies water or the head of feeding overhead tank exceeds 18 meters, a PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE is to be fitted in the inlet pipe to protect the water heater from excessive pressure.

3. സജ്ജീകരണവും ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷനും
Installation of the Activa Volcano Quick Water Heater should be carried out by a qualified professional to ensure safety and proper functioning. Follow these general steps:
- സൈറ്റ് തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കൽ: Choose a suitable wall location, ensuring it is sturdy enough to support the geyser's weight when full of water. The location should be near water inlet/outlet points and a power source.
- മൗണ്ടിംഗ്: Securely mount the geyser to the wall using appropriate fasteners. Ensure it is level and at the recommended height.
- ജല കണക്ഷനുകൾ: Connect the cold water inlet (usually blue) and hot water outlet (usually red) pipes to the corresponding ports on the geyser. Use appropriate plumbing fittings and ensure all connections are watertight.
- ടാങ്ക് നിറയ്ക്കൽ: Before connecting to power, open the hot water tap in your sink or shower and then slowly open the cold water inlet valve to the geyser. Allow water to flow through the geyser until a steady stream of water comes out of the hot water tap, indicating the tank is full and all air has been purged. Close the hot water tap.
- ഇലക്ട്രിക്കൽ കണക്ഷൻ: Connect the geyser to a dedicated and properly grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltagഇ, വാട്ട്tage match the product specifications.

5. പരിപാലനം
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficiency of your Activa water heater:
- വൃത്തിയാക്കൽ: Periodically clean the exterior of the geyser with a soft, damp തുണി. ഉരച്ചിലുകളുള്ള ക്ലീനറുകളോ ലായകങ്ങളോ ഉപയോഗിക്കരുത്.
- നിരസിക്കൽ: The geyser features anti-scaling properties. However, in areas with hard water, mineral deposits can accumulate over time. It is recommended to have the heating element and tank descaled by a qualified technician annually to maintain efficiency.
- സുരക്ഷാ വാൽവ് പരിശോധന: Occasionally check the pressure relief valve for any blockages or leaks. If it drips excessively, consult a technician.
- ഉപയോഗത്തിലില്ലാത്തപ്പോൾ പവർ ഓഫ്: For extended periods of non-use, it is advisable to turn off the power supply to the geyser.

| വെള്ളം ആവശ്യത്തിന് ചൂടില്ല | Insufficient heating time; Mineral buildup. | Ensure geyser is on for sufficient time. If problem persists, consider descaling by a technician. |
| Water dripping from safety valve | Normal operation due to pressure build-up; Excessive water pressure. | A small amount of dripping is normal. If excessive, install a pressure reducing valve in the inlet line (refer to Safety Precautions). |
| Unusual noise from geyser | ടാങ്കിൽ അവശിഷ്ടം അടിഞ്ഞുകൂടൽ. | Contact a qualified technician for inspection and cleaning. |
In the rare case of thermostat failure, the thermal cut-out provides protection against dry heating of the element and excessive heating. The company provides an inbuilt service alarm system which will alert as the thermostat fails.
