BEFORE USING THE WATER HEATER READ CAREFULLY THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
IF IN DOUBT, PLEASE CONTACT THE NEAREST “QUICK®” DEALER.
WARNING: use this water heater in the applications described in this manual. Don’t use the equipment
for any other purpose. Quick® will not be held responsible for damage to equipment and/or personal
injuries caused by a misusage of the equipment.
PACKAGE CONTAINS: water heater - mounting - bolts, nuts and screws (for assembly) - user’s manual - condi-
tions of warranty.
INSTALLATION SITE
The water heater has to be placed in a dry and well-ventilated location. This precaution is required, even
though water heaters are made of sea environment resistant materials, since electrical systems are present
(in models provided). Moreover, if installed in non-ventilated environments, condensation could occur and
could be mistaken for a leak.
INSTALLATION
• Put mounting (17) on the tank (1) using studs and nuts provided (18, 19, 20).
• Fix water heater on flat surface or inclined plane or wall, as shown in fig. 1, using proper mountings for the
weight of the water heater and for the type of installation site in the boat.
WARNING: the weight of water heater/unit in the technical data refers to the empty unit. In order to
have the gross weight add to the empty weight, the water amount. (1 liter of water will almost weigh 1
Kg. / 2,2 lb).
• Carry out the hydraulic connections, relating to the input and output of tap water and from the engine
cooling to the heat exchanger, as shown in fig. 2. Keep the connections between engine cooling system and
heat exchanger as short as possible.
WARNING: the overpressure release pipe must be positioned sloping evenly downwards in a location
protected from the formation of ice.
WARNING: water might drip from the overpressure release pipe of the device, and this pipe must be
left open to the atmosphere.
WARNING: when fittings are used on water outlets, use Loctite 243, 577 or Teflon on the threads in or-
der to ensure tightness. Make sure that there is no water leakage.

WARNING: follow the instructions of the boat engine manufacturer on how to connect engine cooling
liquid to the heat exchanger.
• Fit the stub pipe (6) to the relief valve (4) using the hose clamp (5).
Fit the pipe so as to allow any possible water leak not to cause damage to parts of the boat.
• Open up hot water taps of the washbasins and start the water pump. This allows water to fill the water
heater and force air out of the water heater and pipes. Close taps as soon as air free water comes
out of the taps.
• Check that there are no leaks on pipe joints.
A double pole switch has to be included on the electric installation in order to turn on and off the unit, as well
as a fuse of suitable rating. The insulation between connection contacts of the AC network must be at least 3
mm. The connections to AC network must be done following the National Specifications on electrical installa-
tions.
WARNING: before carrying out the connection make sure the cables are not live.
WARNING: in case the power supply cable is damaged, ensure it is replaced by a Quick service center.
In order to avoid accidents, the equipment has to be opened by authorized personnel only. If opened by
an unauthorized person, the warranty is considered void.
WARNING: don’t operate the electric element if the tank is not filled with water. It may cause a perma-
nent damage to the electric element.
