7.1 

Inspection and maintenance intervals

Appropriate, regular inspections and maintenance and the 
exclusive use of original spare parts are the decisive fac-
tors in determining whether your Vaillant ecoMAX 646 
will run problem-free and have a long service life.

 Danger!

Inspections/Maintenance work not carried out 
can result in material damage and injury to per-
sons.

For this reason, we recommend the signing of an inspec-
tion and/or maintenance contract. The inspection is in-
tended to determine the actual condition of an appliance 
and compare it with the specified condition. This is done 
by measuring, checking, observing. Maintenance is re-
quired in order to eliminate any deviations of the actual 
condition from the specified condition. This is usually 
done by cleaning, setting and, if necessary, replacing in-
dividual components subject to wear. With regard to the 
Vaillant ecoMAX 646, this means it is usually sufficient 
to conduct an inspection once a year. Inspections can be 
performed quickly and economically without dismount-
ing any components thanks to the data query in the 
DIA system, easy optical inspection and an air ratio 
measurement. Experience indicates that under normal 
circumstances it is not necessary to clean the burner 
and heat exchangers yearly. These maintenance inter-
vals and their extent are determined by a specialist, 
depending on the ascertained condition of the appliance 
during the inspection. All inspection and maintenance 
work should be performed in the order specified in 
table 7.1.

7.2 

Inspection and maintenance instructions

Only genuine Vaillant spare parts may be used for in-
spections, maintenance and repair work to ensure the 
perfect long-term working order of all functions of your 
Vaillant appliance and to prevent the permitted series 
condition from being changed. Any spare parts which 
might be required are listed in the relevant current spare 
parts catalogues. Information can be obtained from 
Vaillant Customer Service Centres.

 Note!

If inspection and maintenance work is neces-
sary with the mains switch on, this is indicated 
in the description of the maintenance work.

 Danger!

The supply terminals of the appliance are under 
voltage even if the mains switch is off.

No.
