Open the service valves, fill the boiler/heating installation to 0.1 - 0.2 MPa (1.0 - 2.0 bar) (depending on
the static height of the heating installation), start purging programme P.0.
X
18
Check the gas connection pressure (gas flow pressure) (
¬section 9.6.3
) at maximum output.
If the gas connection pressure (gas flow pressure) is not within the correct range, carry out mainte-
nance.

19
Check the CO
2
content of the boiler and, if necessary, adjust it (
¬section
