15/10/2009 - 300017555-001-C SGC 24 SOL
The servicing and cleaning of the boiler and the sweeping of the flue
gas pipe and the bleed pot must be done at least once a year by a
qualified professional.
We recommend that you take out a maintenance contract.
The boiler is fitted with an antifreeze system. In the event of total
shutdown of the heating in winter which may lead to the danger of
freezing (switching off of radiators and current), we recommend using
a correctly dosed anti-freeze product to stop the heating water
freezing. Failing this, drain the installation completely (in all cases,
consult your fitter).
Do not neglect to service the appliance:
For completely safe and optimum operation, you must
have your boiler regularly serviced by an approved
installer.
