7 SERVICING
7.1 General
Once the appliance has been serviced, the benchmark Service Re-
cord must be completed. For UK only: It is important that the Bench-
mark Service Record is correctly completed and handed to the user.
Failure to install and commission the appliance to the manufacturers
instructions will invalidate the warranty. To ensure the continued safe
and efficient operation of the appliance, it is recommended that it is
checked and serviced at regular intervals. The frequency of servicing
will depend upon the particular installation conditions, but in general,
once per year should be adequate.
It is the law that any servicing work is carried out by competent person
such as a
Vokera
engineer, an approved service agent, British Gas, or
other Gas-Safe registered personnel.
The following instructions apply to the appliance, but it should be re-
membered that the domestic hot water system will also require atten-
tion from time to time.
