Preparing for initial startup
The boiler must be started up for the first time by the manufac-
turer's Technical Assistance Service.
Perform the following checks before starting up the boiler:
− Check that the fuel shut-off cock and heating system
shut-off cock are open
− Check that the central heating circuit pressure gauge
shows a pressure over
1 bar
with the system cold. Check
also that the circuit is properly de-aerated
− Check that the expansion vessel is correctly pre-charged
− the electric connections have been made correctly
− Check that the flue and air vents are made to applicable
laws and standards.

Initial startup
Once you have completed all the checks listed above, proceed as
follows to start up the boiler for the first time:
− Turn the boiler’s mains power switch ON
− Set the room thermostat to the required temperature (~
20°C) or, if the system has a timer or timer-thermostat,
make sure that this is switched “ON” and adjusted to the
required temperature (~ 20°C).;
