6.1 - Operating
Before starting the appliance up, it is
necessary to carry out the following.
6 . 1 . 1 - U s e r
instructions
The user must be correctly instructed
on how to operate the appliance, in
particular:
Make sure that the user has the
instruction and users’ manual and all
other documentation included in the
packaging.
Make sure the user is informed of
all the special measures to be taken
for discharging ue gases, and that
these must not be modied.
Inform the user with regards to
adjusting the water pressure in the
system and all necessary measures
for lling and bleeding air.
Correctly inform the user on how to
adjust temperatures, controls/room
thermostats and radiators to save
energy.
6.1. 2 - F illi n g o f
the condensation
discharge trap
The trap is positioned inside the boiler
(see gure 1, detail 40), and must be
lled with water in order to create the
head capable of avoiding the leakage of
the ue gases from the pipe “36” of gure
1. Proceed as follows for this purpose:
disconnect the ue gas discharge
tting from opening “2” as per gure
1;
6 - OPERATING
remove the tube previously
connected and check that there are
no water leakages.
6.2 - General warnings
c o n c e r n i n g g a s
supply
When starting up the boiler for the rst
time, have qualied technicians check
the following:
That the boiler is powered by the
type of fuel it is designed to use.
That the gas supply pressure (with
boiler on and boiler off) is within
the maximum and minimum values
given in the table in section 9 at the
end of the manual.
That the gas supply system is
provided with all the safety devices
and controls required under current
national and local legislation.
That the ue gas discharge terminal
and the air intake terminal are free
from any blockages.
That the condensation discharge
connection is connected.
CAUTION !!! If you smell
gas:
A - Do not use any electrical
appliance, including
telephones or any object
which might cause sparks;
B - Immediately open doors and
windows to produce a current
of air to rapidly clear all gas
from the room;
C - Immediately call, from
another room or from a
neighbour’s house, a qualied
technician or the gas board. If
you cannot contact them, call
the Fire Brigade.
Figure 32 - Bleed screws of
the secondary heat exchanger
from the central opening (ue
gas discharge), slowly pour in
approximately 100 cm3 (a glass full)
of water;
re-connect the ue gas discharge
tting;
6.1.3 - Filling the
heating system
If at the time of switching on the power
to the boiler, FILL appears on the
display, it means that it is necessary
to ll the heating system. Proceed as
follows:
The heating system must only be
lled with clean water from the mains
supply.
CAUTION!!! The addition
of any chemical substance, such
as anti-freeze, must be carried
out according to the product
instructions. These substances
must never be inserted directly into
the boiler.
Open the automatic air vent a
couple of turns (see gure 1, detail
“1”) situated at the top of the boiler.
Open the supply cock located under
the boiler (see gure 1, detail “34”)
and proceed to ll the system and
appliance to about 1.5 bar (FILL
disappears from the display).
Check that there is no water leaking
from the ttings.
Close the supply cock (see gure 1,
detail “34”);
Purging the air from the radiators.
Check the pressure gauge reading
of the boiler once again. If it has
dropped, re-ll again until its reads
1.5 bar
6.1.4 - Filling of the
secondary heat
exchanger of the
domestic hot water
Once the heating circuit has been lled, it
is also necessary to carry out the lling of
the secondary heat exchanger. Proceed
as follows:
connect a rubber tube to the
pressure coupling “A” shown in
gure 32 and take it to the discharge
of a sink or similar;
loosen screw “A” as shown in gure
32 until you hear the air escape and
wait until just water runs out;
tighten screw “A” once again as
shown in gure 32;
