3 Working in the heating system
It is recommended to enter into a service contract with
a specialist company.
4 Functions of the system and
operating instructions
The installer should familiarize the user with the functions and
operation of the heating system and ensure that a complete set
of technical documentation is supplied.
5 Maintenance intervals
For optimum, long-term reliable functioning of the heating
boiler, and in order to be able to claim under the terms of the
manufacturer's warranty, the heating boiler must be inspected
and maintained at least once a year (under normal operating
conditions) by an officially recognized installation and service
engineer. The term "normal operating conditions" means that
the heating boiler is used to provide central heating and/or hot
water to no more than one single-family dwelling.
In all other cases, the heating boiler must be inspected and
maintained by an officially recognised installation service engineer every 2,500 burner operating hours.
6 Conversion to LPG
The boiler is suited for natural gas. To convert the boiler to
LPG you must contact a CORGI registered fitter.
