Service and Maintenance
•
To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply

•
Allow the appliance to cool down prior to servicing to
avoid severe burns.

in this manual and have at least annual service per-
formed by a qualified service technician to ensure
appliance / system reliability.
CHALLENGER Operation
•
Do not block flow of combustion air to the CHAL-
LENGER. If the combustion air blockage is easily
accessible and removable, then remove it. If block-
age is not obvious or cannot be removed, have the
appliance and system checked by a qualified service
technician.
•
Do not allow contaminated air to enter the appli-
ance’s combustion air inlet. See page 3 for details.
•
The CHALLENGER is equipped with a low water cut
off device. The CH (central heating) system piping
must be filled and pressurized to 12 psig [0.8 bar]
prior to startup. The appliance will shut down if the
pressure falls below 7 psig [0.5 bar].
•
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, DO NOT turn OFF or disconnect the elec-
trical supply to the pump. Instead, shut off the gas
supply at a location external to the appliance.
•
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service techni-
cian to inspect the appliance and to replace any part
of the control system and any gas control, which has
