CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Preventive maintenance and checking of
efficient operation of equipment and safety
devices must be carried out exclusively by
authorized technical personnel.
During maintenance operations the
authorised technician must check that
the syphened drip is full of water
(this
check is of importance particularly when
the generator has been out of use for a long
period of time). Filling is done via the special
opening (fig. 28).
4.6.1
Cleaning the
“Aqua Guard” filter
(fig. 28/a)
To clean the filter, close the delivery/return
on/off taps, turn off the power to the con-
trol panel, remove the casing and empty the
boiler using the drain provided. Place a con-
tainer for collection underneath the filter
and proceed to clean the filter, removing
impurities and limestone deposits. Check
the seal o-ring before reassembling the cap
with the filter.
