Other important information or tips
Installation and service must be performed
by an expert. Improper installation, altera-
tion, service or maintenance can cause
property damage, personal injury or loss of
life.
California Proposition 65 lists chemical sub-
stances known to the state to cause cancer,
birth defects, death, serious illness or other re-
productive harm. This product may consist of
such substances or such substances may be
formed from components of the product.
Injuries caused by the Easy Drain Lever!
• Never actuate the Easy Drain Lever as long
as the AquaGo is under water pressure
and/or is still hot.
5
Sensitive surfaces (e. g. marble)
may be damaged through contact with the
decalcification agent. Immediately remove
splashes of decalcification agent on these
surfaces.
Keep decalcification product/solution safe
from unauthorized access (e.g. children and
animals).
For safety reasons, once the decalcification
process has started it must not be stopped
until the system has been flushed (see “Flush-
ing the water system”, page 11).
Danger of crushing/pinching of fingers
when the Easy Drain Lever is closed!
Never put fingers between Easy Drain Lever
and water inlet filter or latch.
The use of non-original AquaGo profes-
sional decalcification (e.g. vinegar) for de-
calcification can cause chemical reactions
and produce hazardous substances that
could enter the drinking water supply.
• Do not mix AquaGo professional decal-
cification with other substances to avoid
chemical reactions and production of haz-
ardous substances.
• Only use AquaGo professional decalcifica-
tion to decalcify the AquaGo to avoid:
– chemical reactions and production of
hazardous substances,
– damage to your AquaGo,
– and the voiding of your warranty.
– Call your local AquaGo dealer or service
provider or see www.truma.net for more
information to obtain AquaGo profes-
sional decalcification.

Irritation of skin and eyes in case of con-
tact with decalcification agent
Wear protective gloves, eye protection and
face protection to avoid contact.
• Never use the water supply in the RV dur-
ing decalcification.
• In case of skin contact with the decalcifica-
tion agent, immediately rinse the affected
area with plenty of water.
• In case of eye contact, hold eyelid open and
rinse with running water for 10 – 15min.
Remove contact lenses, if present and easy
to do. Continue rinsing. Consult an eye
specialist.
• If you swallow the decalcification agent,
immediately rinse your mouth and drink
plenty of water in small sips. Do not vomit.
Consult a doctor.
Risk of damage in frosty
conditions. In frosty conditions there is a risk
that water in pipes, faucets and appliances
could freeze. This can cause considerable
damage. For more information see “Winter
operation” in the operating instructions for the
AquaGo instant water heater.

Operating instructions
Decalcification takes about 2.5 hours.
If, during installation, it is difficult to install
the filter cartridge or circulation adapter,
use a small amount of soap on the O-rings.
Never use grease because the O-rings are not
resistant to grease.
You will find more information about the
access door in the operating instructions
for the AquaGo instant water heater.
Decalcification frequency
Lime scale occurs especially as a result of pre-
cipitation from “hard” water. The AquaGo must
be decalcified regularly depending on water
hardness and hot water consumption.
