Danger!
If the combi boiler is operated with an empty
water condensate trap there is a danger that
poisonous exhaust gases can escape and cause
poisoning. For this reason it is important that
the trap is refilled after each cleaning.
• Remove the lower section (
1
) of the water condensate
siphon by turning the bayonet connection in a
counterclockwise direction.
• Clean the siphon part by flushing it out with water.
• Fill the lower section with water until about 10 mm
below the upper edge.
• Re-fit the lower section to the condensate siphon.
