Our Service is available for work (in particular the

Observe the following when returning systems:
 Before shipping:
– Drain system completely as described in
Chapter 8.1, "Draining", Pg. 23.
– Clean system outside
(observe degree of protection according to
rating plate when doing so)
 The system must be delivered complete, i.e.
not dismantled.
 Only the original packing should be used for
shipment.
 A declaration of clearance must be included
with the shipment,
as described in Chapter 9.4,
"Decontamination and Declaration of
Clearance", Pg. 33.
 The original rating plate of the system must be
properly mounted, intact and legible.
All warranty claims are voided for systems

9.4
Decontamination and Declaration of
Clearance
 WARNING
Danger from flammable, caustic or toxic
substances!
To protect the environment and persons, the
following applies:
Systems which have come into contact with
dangerous substances
must always be
decontaminated before being passed on to a
workshop!
A so-called Declaration of Clearance must be
included with each system that is given to a
workshop for inspection, maintenance or repair.
The declaration of clearance
 is provided as a pre-printed form for
photocopying Pg. 35,
 is legally binding,
 must be filled out and signed by authorised,
qualified personnel,
 must be issued for each system sent in (i.e. a
separate declaration for each system),
 must be attached outside on the packing of
the system,
 should be sent to as a copy by fax the
workshop conducting the work prior to
shipment.
This ensures
 that the system has not come into contact with
dangerous substances,
 that a system that has come into contact with
dangerous substances has been sufficiently
decontaminated,
 that the inspection, maintenance or repair
personnel can take the required protective
measures if necessary.
NOTICE
The inspection/maintenance/ repair of the
system at the workshop will not be begun
until the declaration of clearance has been
received!
If the declaration of clearance is not included
with the shipment,
delays may result!
10 Disposal
Have the entire system scrapped by a suitable
disposal company. No special measures are
required when doing so.
For additional information on disposing of the
system, ask the Service Department.
