General safety information

As soon as you open the packaging, check imme-
diately that the contents are all present and unda-
maged. Contact the reseller from whom you pur-
chased the product if you notice any problems.

This 

IDRA DS 

solar storage cylinder must be instal-

led by a qualified installer according to Law 46 of 
the 5th March 1990. On completion of the installa-
tion, the installer must issue the owner with a decla-
ration of conformity confirming that the installation 
has been completed to the highest standards in 
compliance with the instructions provided in this 
instruction manual, and that it conforms to all appli-
cable laws and standards.

This 

IDRA DS 

solar storage cylinder must only be 

used for the purpose specified and for which it is 
designed.

 

Is declines all responsibility, contractual or other, for 
damage to property or injury to persons or animals 
caused by improper installation, adjustment, main-
tenance or use.

If you notice any water leaking from the cylinder, 
disconnect it immediately from the mains electrici-
ty supply, shut off the water supply, and notify your 
Technical Assistance Centre or a qualified techni-
cian immediately. 

La manutenzione del bollitore deve essere eseguita 
almeno una volta l'anno.

This storage cylinder must be serviced at least once 
a year.

If the solar storage cylinder is not going to be used 
for an extended period of time, prepare it for shut-
down as follows:

 

- Drain the solar heating circuit

 

- Close the shut-off cocks for the domestic hot water 

circuit

 

- Shut down the boiler as instructed in its own 

manual

 

- Turn the system’s main power switch OFF

Anti-freeze (propylene glycol) is available separa-
tely and must be mixed with water in a percentage 
varying from 30% to 50% as instructed in the rele-
vant installation and maintenance manual.

Only fill the solar heating system with water and 
glycol premixed in the percentages specified in the 
installation and maintenance manual.

This instruction manual is an integral part of the 
storage cylinder. It must be kept safe and must 
ALWAYS accompany the appliance, even if it is sold 
to another owner or transferred to another user or to 
another installation.

 

If you damage or lose this manual, order a repla-
cement immediately from your local Technical 
Assistance Centre.

Do not allow children or infirm persons to operate 
the storage cylinder unsupervised.

Do not touch the storage cylinder when barefoot or 
wet.

Never clean or service the storage cylinder without 
first disconnecting it from the mains electricity sup-
ply by turning the main power switch and the control 
panel switch OFF.

Do not interfere with any control devices without 
specific authorisation and instructions from the 
manufacturer.

Never pull, disconnect, or twist the electrical cables 
coming from the appliance even if it is disconnected 
from the mains electricity supply.

Do not expose the storage cylinder to the elements. 
It is not designed for use outdoors.

Do not leave packaging material within the reach of 
children, since it can become a potential hazard.

If the pressure in the solar heating circuit drops, do 
not top up with water alone, since this increases the 
risk of damage from freezing.

Do not use connections or safety devices or fittings 
(expansion vessels, pipes, insulation) that are not 
specifically designed and tested for use in solar 
heating installations.

The operation of any appliance that uses electrical power and water demands that a number of fundamental safety 
precautions be respected. In particular:
