9.6 CHECKING THE CO

2

 AND ADJUSTING THE 

GAS VALVE

THE GAS VALVE MUST BE SET-UP OR ADJUSTED WITH 

THE AID OF A PROPERLY CALIBRATED FLUE GAS ANA

-

LYSER.

Isolate the appliance from the electrical supply and remove 

the appliance casing as described in 4.7.1. Set the flue gas 

analyser to read CO

2

 and insert the probe into the flue analysis 

test point (

Y1-Z1 

fig. 39). Restore the electrical supply to the 

boiler and switch the boiler to the OFF mode.
Have access to the printed circuit board, locate and open the 
closing plug on the dash board 

(L2 

fig. 40

)

, locate and press 

the CO

 

button (see fig. 36 pos. SW1). The appliance will now 

operate in CO

2

 mode for approximately 15-minutes.

 function it is necessary to pass throught the 

 position with the main selector switch

 

9.3 CONVERTING THE APPLIANCE GAS TYPE

To convert the appliance to another gas type it is necessary to
change the injector and adjust the gas valve (CO

2

). 

 To change the injector see 6.12.1

 To replace/insert the flange on the silencer see 6.15

 To adjust CO

2

 values see 10.6

9.4 GAS SUPPLY

The gas supply must be connected to the appliance by a com-

petent LPG installer and must be of sufficient size to supply 

the appliance at its maximum output. An existing supply must 
be checked to ensure that it is of adequate size to deal with 
the maximum rated input of this and any other appliances that 
it serves.

9.5 GAS SUPPLY INSTALLATION

The entire installation including the meter must be purged and 
checked for gas tightness.

9.6.2 GAS VALVE MAXIMUM SETTING

Set the CO

 

button at maximum (see 10.3.1), once the 

maximum is obtained (only yellow led blinking) check that 
it corresponds with the appropriate CO

2

 value (Maximum) 

for the respective appliance. If the CO

2

 reading is correct, 

proceed to gas valve minimum setting (10.7.2).
However, if the CO

2

 reading is incorrect, the maximum gas 

pressure must be adjusted as follows:

• 

using a 2.5mm Allen key, very slowly turn the maximum 

adjustment screw (see fig. 41) – clockwise to decrease, 

counter clockwise to increase – until the correct value is 
displayed on the CO

2

 analyser (allow time for the analyser 

to stabilise).

9.6.3 GAS VALVE MINIMUM SETTING

Set the CO

 

button at minimum (see 10.3.1), once the 

minimum is obtained  

(yellow led bl green led fixed)

 

check that it corresponds with the appropriate CO

2

 value 

(Minimum) for the respective appliance. If the CO

2

 reading 

is correct, proceed to completion (10.7.3).
However, if the CO

2

 reading is incorrect, the minimum gas 

pressure must be adjusted as follows:

• 

locate the minimum adjustment screw (fig. 41), using a 

suitable screwdriver remove the protection plug 

• 

using a 4mm Allen key, very slowly turn the minimum 

adjustment screw (see fig. 41) - clockwise to increase, 

counter clockwise to decrease - until the correct value is 
displayed on the CO

2

 analyser (allow time for the analyser 

to stabilise).

9.6.4 COMPLETION

On completion of the combustion analysis check and/or 

any gas valve adjustment, refit the plug 

(L2 

j

and move 

the mode selector to the position. Remove the test probe 

from the test point and refit the sealing screw/s and/or cap.

IMPORTANT
A GAS TIGHTNESS CHECK MUST BE CARRIED OUT 
IF ANY GAS CARRYING COMPONENTS HAVE BEEN
REMOVED, REPLACED OR DISTURBED.
ATTENTION

Gas type and appliance output 

must be set 

according to

the specific appliance specification.

Vokèra accepts no responsibility if the gas type and/or 
appliance output is not correctly adjusted according to 

the respective appliance specification as detailed on the 

appliance data badge.

(*) this step has not to be used for the system boiler. If you find in this situation press the button once again.
