CONNECTING THE CONTROLLER(S) TO THE WATER HEATER 
To connect the controller(s) to the water heater: 
1.  Ensure the electrical supply to the water heater is 
switched off. 
2.  Unscrew and gently remove the electrical cover from the 
underside of the water heater. 
3.  Draw the cable(s) through the electrical cover. 
4.  Connect a cable lug from each cable to each of the 
remote controller terminals. Each cable has two cable 
lugs. 
Ensure the terminal screws are seated firmly and there 
are no excess wire loops inside of the electrical cover. 
  The cable connections are non-polarised. 
  Three cable lugs, one from each type of controller, 
can be connected to each remote controller 
terminal. 
5.  Place the cable(s) in the cable holder notches. 
It is important to seat the cables into the cable notches. 
Failure to do this may cause an unstable contact or even 
disconnection of the cables from the terminals if the 
cables were to be pulled. 
6.  Refit the electrical cover to the water heater and replace the screws. 
7.  Switch on the electrical supply to the water heater. 
Upon completion of the installation of the controllers, it is necessary to test their operation through the 
complete range of functions (refer to “Temperature Control” on pages 11 to 30). 
Upon completion and testing of the installation, explain to the householder the functions and operation of the 
controllers and the water heater. 
If it is necessary to turn off the water heater on completion of the installation, such as on a building site or 
where the premises is vacant, follow the procedure “To Turn Off the Water Heater” on page 70.
