1.4 APPLIANCE COMMISSIONING CHECKLIST
(UK only)
A checklist section can be found at the rear of the appliance
installation booklet. This important document must be com-
pleted during the installation/commissioning of your boiler. All
GAS SAFE registered installers carry a GAS SAFE ID card,
and have a registration number. These details should be re-

details by calling GAS SAFE direct on 08004085500. Failure
to install and commission the appliance in accordance with
the manufacturers instructions will invalidate the warranty.
This does not affect your statutory rights.
1.5 HOW DOES IT WORK?
Your Compact A boiler supplies heated water to your radiators
and hot water to your hot water taps.
The central heating is controlled via a time clock and any
thermostats that your installer may have fitted. The boiler will
light when it receives a request from the time clock via any
thermostat that may be installed, or whenever a hot water
outlet (tap) is opened.
Your Compact A boiler lights electronically and does not have
a pilot light.
In the unlikely event of a fault developing with your boiler, the
supply of gas to the burner will be terminated automatically.

Your Vokèra Compact A boiler has been designed to meet and exceed the very latest standards in gas central heating technol-
