5.1

For your Safety

1. This appliance must have been installed in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions and the regulations
in force.

2. Any modification that may interfere with the normal
operation of the appliance without express written
permission from the manufacturer or his agent could
invalidate the appliance warranty. In GB this could also
infringe the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations.

3. Your boiler must not be operated without the casing
correctly fitted.

4. Do not interfere with any sealed components on this
boiler.

5. Take note of any warning labels on your boiler.

6. Your boiler should have the following minimum
clearances for Safety and Maintenance
(Fig. 34):-

Top

- 200mm

Bottom

- 200mm

Left side

- 5mm

Right Side

- 5mm

Front

- 5mm (In Operation)
- 450mm (For Servicing)

* NOTE: The boiler can be operated with a
clearance of 5mm at the right. This is also sufficient
for routine maintenance. However a clearance of
20mm is required if it is necessary to remove the
secondary heat exchanger. This should be considered
when siting the appliance and in the event of any
subsequent alteration in the area of installation.

7. If your boiler is installed in a compartment, do not use
it for storage purposes. Do not obstruct any purpose
provided ventilation openings.

8. Flammable materials must not be stored in close
proximity to your boiler.

9. Avoid skin contact when your boiler is in operation, as
some surfaces may get hot e.g. pipework.

10. Ensure that the flue terminal, outside the house,
does not become damaged or obstructed, particularly
by foliage.

11. It is important that the condensate drain system is
not blocked, modified or damaged in any way as this
would affect the operation of your boiler. Your installer
should have insulated any exposed pipework.
