Maintenance
Troubleshooting
Fault diagnosis and repair
Faults
In the event of a malfunction, first check
that the prerequisites for correct
operation are fulfilled:
1.
Is the system connected to the
power supply?
2.
Is there any gas pressure?
3.
Is the gas shut-off valve open?
4.
Are all control and safety devices,
such as the boiler thermostat, low
water level detector, limit switch,
etc. adjusted correctly?
If the malfunction persists, use the
following table.
It is not permitted to repair any
components relevant to safety. These
components must be replaced by parts
with the same order number.
Only use original spare parts.
NB:
After each operation:
• Under normal operating conditions
(doors closed, hood fitted, etc.), check
combustion and check the individual
lines for leaks.
• Record the results in the relevant
documents.
