4.3 Maintenance
Periodical inspection
To ensure proper operation of the unit over time, have qualified personnel carry out a
yearly inspection, providing for the following checks:
•
The control and safety devices (gas valve, flow switch, thermostats, etc.) must func-
tion correctly.
•
The fume exhaust circuit must be perfectly efficient.
(Sealed chamber boiler: fan, pressure switch, etc. - The sealed chamber must be
tight: seals, cable glands, etc.)
(Open chamber boiler: anti-backflow device, fume thermostat, etc.)
•
The air/fume terminal and ducts must be free of obstructions and leaks
•
The burner and exchanger must be clean and free of deposits. Do not use chemical
products or wire brushes to clean.
•
The electrode must be properly positioned and free of deposits.
•
The gas and water systems must be tight.
•
The pressure of the water in the system when cold must be approx. 1 bar; otherwise,
bring it to that value.
•
The circulating pump must not be blocked.
•
The expansion tank must be filled.
•
The gas flow and pressure must match that given in the respective tables.
The casing, control panel and aesthetic parts of the boiler can be cleaned with
A
a soft damp cloth, possibly soaked in soapy water. All abrasive detergents and
solvents should be avoided.
Opening the casing
To open the boiler casing:
1.
Undo the screws A (see fig. 7).
2.
Turn the casing (see fig. 7).
3.
Lift the casing.
B
Before carrying out any operation inside the boiler, disconnect the power supply
and turn off the gas cock upstream.

Combustion analysis
1.
Insert the probe into the flue;
2.
Check that the relief valve is connected to a drain funnel;
3.
Activate TEST mode;
4.
Wait 10 minutes for the boiler to stabilize;
5.
Take the measurement.

4.4 Troubleshooting
Diagnostics
The boiler is equipped with an advanced self-diagnosis system. In case of a boiler fault,
the 3 LEDS will indicate the fault code.
There are faults that cause permanent shutdown: to restore operation, press the RESET
button for 1 second (ref. 5 - fig. 1) or RESET on the optional remote timer control if in-
stalled; if the boiler fails to start, it is necessary to firstly eliminate the fault indicated in
the operation LEDs.
Other faults cause temporary shutdowns which are automatically reset as soon as the
value returns within the boiler's normal working range.
