Constrained MD using andersen thermostat at 300K

I have repeated my constrained Md calculation of a single water molecule using andersen thermostat and keeping bond length and bond angle fixed at 300K using smaller time step. Here also after initial movement O atom moves in a strange way. I am attaching my input files. Please help me to solve the problem.
