For appliances operating on room air: Danger of flue gas poisoning if supply of
combustion air is insufficient
▶ Safeguard supply of combustion air.
▶ Do not cover or reduce the size of ventilation openings in doors, windows and
walls.
▶ Safeguard sufficient supply of combustion air also for appliances installed at a
later date, e.g. kitchen exhaust fans, clothes dryers, and air conditioning units
with vent to the outside.
▶ Never operate the appliance if the supply of combustion air is insufficient.
Danger of explosion of flammable gases.
▶ Only employ a trained and certified contractor to carry out work on the gas train.
Risk of scalding
▶ If running at DHW temperatures above 104 °F (40 °C) ask a trained and certified
heating contractor to install a tempering valve to prevent scalding.
▶ When the thermal disinfection function is enabled, DHW temperatures above
140 °F (60 °C) can occur.
Risk of damage due to operator error
Operator errors can result in personal injury and damage to property.
▶ Ensure that children never operate this appliance unsupervised or play with it.
▶ Ensure that only people who know to operate this appliance correctly have access
to it.
Installation, conversion
Only have the appliance installed or modified by a trained and certified heating
contractor.
Never modify any parts that carry flue gas.
Never close the outlet of safety valves. Water may be expelled from any safety valve

Information about the appliance | 7
Sign a maintenance and inspection contract with a trained and certified contractor,
covering an annual inspection and demand-dependent maintenance. This
guarantees high efficiency and environmentally sound combustion.
Explosive and easily combustible materials
Never use or store easily combustible materials (paper, thinners, paints, etc.) near
the appliance.
Combustion air / room air
To prevent corrosion, keep the supply of combustion air / room air free of corrosive
substances (e.g. halogenated hydrocarbons that contain chlorine or fluorine
compounds).

Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, do not turn off or
disconnect the electrical supply to the pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a
location outside of the appliance.
In case of water damage
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immediately call a trained and
certified service technician to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been under water.
