Maintenance notes
Performing regular cleaning and maintenance
To ensure satisfactory functionality, cleaning and
maintenance must be performed at regular intervals.
You will receive a timely reminder about this from the
ETAtouch control system.
Clean the boiler at least once per year or when
requested by the control system. Maintenance is
required at least every 2 years or when requested by
the control system. We recommend you perform
maintenance annually. You can also enter into a
service agreement for your heating system. Find out
more from your heating contractor or customer
service.
All tasks where the maintenance table reads
"Customer" or "Customer or expert" in the column
"To be carried out by" can be carried out by any trained
adult. Instruction may be provided by the heating
technician or our customer service.
Steps marked "Expert" may be performed by heating
technician or our customer service only.
Operation only by trained personnel
The product may be operated by trained adults only.
Training may be provided by the heating technician or
our customer service. Please read the associated doc-
umentation carefully in order to avoid errors during
operation and maintenance.
Persons who lack experience and knowledge as well
as children may not operate, clean, or maintain the
product.
Clean and maintain the precipitator together with
the boiler
The intervals for cleaning and maintaining the precipi-
tator correspond to those for the boiler. Therefore,
clean and upkeep the precipitator in the course of
cleaning and upkeeping the boiler.
Clean the precipitator before the emission
measurement
We recommend cleaning the precipitator and emptying
the ash bins before an emission measurement is
made.
