Domestic hot water (DHW) fig. 3
A DHW demand (generated by drawing domestic hot water) is indicated by flashing of the hot water symbol (details 12
and 13 of fig. 1).
The display (detail 14 - fig. 1) shows the actual hot water outlet temperature and the message "d1"during DHW standby
time.

Room temperature adjustment (with optional room thermostat)
It is normal practise for a room thermostat to be connected to the boiler. The room thermostat will control the system to
the desired room temperature and if it is a programmable type, it will allow for different temperature levels to be set
throughout the day. The boiler will modulate its output to maintain the required room temperature.
Please refer to the specific instructions for the room thermostat for further guidance.

ECO/COMFORT selection
The unit has a function that ensures a high domestic hot water delivery speed and maximum comfort for the user. When
the device is activated (COMFORT mode), the water contained in the boiler is kept hot, therefore ensuring rapid availability of hot water on opening the tap, without waiting times.
The device can be deactivated by the user (ECO mode) by pressing the eco/comfort button (detail 7 - fig. 1). To activate the COMFORT mode, press the eco/comfort button (detail 7 - fig. 1) again.
Outside Temperature Compensation (O.T.C)
When the optional external sensor is installed, the control panel display (detail 5 - fig. 1) shows the actual outside temperature detected by the external sensor. In this mode, the heating system temperature is adjusted according to the
outside weather conditions, to ensure the high comfort and energy saving throughout the year. In particular, as the outside temperature increases, the system delivery temperature decreases according to a specific "compensation curve"
(fig. 12).
The maximum system delivery temperature can be set with the heating buttons (details 3 & 4 - fig. 1).
The boiler must be regulated at the time of installation by qualified personnel. Possible adjustments can in any case be
made by the user to improve comfort.
Compensation curve and curve offset (Only required if external sensor is installed)
Press the mode button (detail 10 - fig. 1) once to display the actual compensation curve value (fig. 12) which can be
modified with the DHW buttons (details 1 and 2 - fig. 1).
Adjust the required curve from 1 to 10 according to the characteristic (fig. 14).
By setting the curve to 0, sliding temperature adjustment is disabled.
It is recommended that a start point of 20 to 30°C and a flow temperature of 85°C is suitable for the UK (Curve
9 or 10).

Safe handling of materials
Pay attention when handling the boiler insulation panels because the material they are made of could irritate the skin.
No part of the boiler contains asbestos, mercury or CFC's.
Advice for transport and handling
For lifting and transport always take suitable safety precautions: keep your back straight, bend knees, do not turn your
body, move feet, avoid bending forward or sideways and keep the load as close as possible to your body.
If possible, use a trolley or other suitable means to carry the boiler.
Grip the boiler firmly and, before lifting it, try and find the point where the load is concentrated in order to establish the
centre of gravity and suitably reposition yourself. Ideally seek assistance in lifting the boiler.

2.2 Place of installation
The combustion circuit is sealed with respect to the
place of installation and therefore the unit can be installed in any room. However, the place of installation
must be sufficiently ventilated to prevent the creation
of dangerous conditions in case of even slight gas
leaks. This safety regulation is provided for by EEC Directive no. 90/396 for all gas units, including those with
a sealed chamber.
The unit is suitable for operation in a partially protected place in conformity with EN 297 pr A6, with minimum temperature -5°C. It is advisable to install the
boiler under the slope of a roof, inside a balcony or in
a sheltered recess.
In any case, the place of installation must be free of
dust, flammable materials or objects or corrosive gases.
The boiler is arranged for wall mounting and comes
standard with a hanging bracket. A paper template for
marking the drilling points on the wall is provided in the
box. The wall fixing must ensure stable and effective
support for the generator.
A
If the unit is enclosed in a cabinet or mounted
alongside, a space must be provided for removing the casing and for normal maintenance operations. The minimum
measurements to be respected are given in
fig. 17.

2.3 Plumbing connections
Important
The heating capacity of the boiler must be previously established by calculating the building's heat requirement according to the current regulations. To ensure proper operation and long boiler life, the plumbing system must be adequately
sized and complete with all the necessary accessories, including a room thermostat, a termostatic radiator valve (TRV),
etc. The system flow and return pipes must have a diameter of at least 22 mm for the first 3 m of length from the unit.
If the system delivery and return pipes follow a path where air pockets could form in certain places, it is advisable to
install vent valves at these points. Also, install type "A" drain cocks at the lowest points in the system to allow complete
emptying.
The temperature drop between the delivery manifold and the return to the boiler should not exceed 20 °C.
A flow rate of at least 6 litres/min through the heat exchanger is required. An automatic bypass installed in the boiler
guarantees maintaining of the required flow rate.
Do not use the water system pipes to earth electrical appliances.
B
Before installation, carefully wash all the heating system pipes to remove any residuals or impurities that could affect
proper operation of the unit (as required by BS 7593 Building regs Doc L).
Carry out the connections to the unit as indicated in fig. 36.
The safety valve discharge must be connected to a 15 mm diameter copper pipe descending from the boiler
B
to run off system water in case of overpressure in the heating circuit. Otherwise, if the discharge valve cuts in
and floods the room, the boiler manufacturer cannot be held liable. The discharge must be run to the outside
of the building to prevent the risk of damage or injury caused by discharged hot water in case of overpressure
in the system.
