The water coming out of the drain valve is hot and can cause severe burns.
Make sure the area around the hot water flow is clear of people.
Shut down the external electrical supply of the appliance before draining.
Drain the tank if it is not used in winter and is at risk from exposure to ice. If the
primary circuit water contains antifreeze, only the DHW tank must be drained. If
the heating circuit does not contain antifreeze, the heating circuit and domestic
water must be drained.
