2 WARNINGS
2.1 GENERAL WARNINGS
WARNING:
Installation and service must be performed by a
qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
WARNING:
This manual should be maintained in legible
condition and kept adjacent to the boiler or in a safe place for
future reference.
DANGER:
Make sure the gas on which the boiler will operate is
the same type as that specified on the boiler rating plate and on
the coloured sticker near the boiler gas connection.
WARNING:
This product is a natural gas appliance that emits
poisonous gases; such as CO (Carbon Monoxide). For this reason,
it is required that CO detectors be installed in buildings where
the boiler is installed. Failure to do so may result in severe injury
or death.
WARNING:
Should overheating occur or the gas supply valve fail
to shut off, do not turn off or disconnect the electrical supply to
the boiler. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external
to the boiler.
WARNING:
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect
the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.
WARNING:
To minimize the possibility of improper operation,
serious personal injury, fire, or damage to the boiler:
− Always keep the area around the boiler free of combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids and vapors.
− The boiler should never be covered or have any blockage to
the flow of fresh air to the boiler.
WARNING:
Risk of electrical shock. More than one disconnect
switch may be required to de-energize the equipment before
servicing. Failure to comply with the above could result in severe
personal injury, death or substantial property damage. Failure
to adhere to the guidelines on this page can result in severe
personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
WARNING:
Automatic filling systems are not recommended with
this product as they will continually add fresh water to the system
if there is a leak; resulting in the addition of new contaminants
that could reduce the lifespan of the boiler
.
WARNING:
There is a risk of pipes freezing if the building is left
unattended for long periods of time, in excess of 12 hrs, in freezing
temperatures. In the event the building will be unoccupied
for long periods of time, ensure the proper freeze protection
precautions are taken and that a competent person is checking
the building at regular intervals to prevent freezing. Failure to
do so may result in substantial property damage. Please consult
your qualified service technician with regards to proper freeze
protection precautions.

WARNING:
for LPG boilers only — Your propane supplier mixes
an odorant with the gas to make its presence detectable.
In some instances, the odorant can fade, and the gas may
no longer have an odor. Before startup (and periodically
thereafter), have the LPG supplier verify the correct odorant
level in the gas.
