NOTICE!
Incorrect assembly will damage the heat
exchanger!
Always use a suitable tool to counter the tight-
ening force in order to prevent any damage.
2.
Tighten screw connections with a spanner.
NOTICE!
Subzero temperatures will damage the heat
exchanger!
Only fill the heat exchanger if there is no danger
of freezing.
