2 Intended 

use

Vaillant auroTHERM tube collectors are built according 
to the state of the art and recognised safety rules and 
regulations.
Nevertheless, improper use may cause danger to life 
and limb of the user or third parties and could impair 
the operation of the unit and other objects.
The unit is not intended for use by persons (including 
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capa-
bilities, or lack of experience and/or knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction 
concerning use of the unit by a person responsible for 
their safety.
Children must be watched to ensure that they do not 
play with the unit.
Vaillant auroTHERM tube collectors are used for solar 
assisted hot water generation and where specially de-
signed can provide additional heating such as pool heat-
ing.
The collectors may only be operated with Vaillant ready-
mixed solar fluid. Passing heating water or hot water di-
rectly through the collectors is not permitted.
Any other use or use exceeding the above-mentioned 
applications shall be considered as improper use. The 
manufacturer/supplier shall not be responsible for any 
damages resulting from such improper use. The user 
alone bears the risk.
Intended use includes observance of the operating and 
installation manuals and all other applicable documents, 
as well as adherence to the maintenance and inspection 
conditions.

a

 Caution!

Any improper use is forbidden!

2.1 

Combination with other components

Vaillant tube collectors should be combined only with 
Vaillant components (fixing, connections) and system 
components. 
The use of other components or system components 
shall be considered as improper use. We accept no liabil-
ity.

2.2 Operational 

conditions

a

 Caution!

The roof may collapse!
Mount the tube collectors only on roofs with an 
adequate load-bearing capacity. 
If necessary, call a technician.
