Maintenance
 
Depending on the operation conditions the units are to 
be tested by an expert when necessary, but at least re-
gularly every two years, to ensure their safe operation. 
 
The test result is to be recorded in a test certificate 
which is to be safely kept until the next test so that it 
can be presented to the authorized persons for control 
purposes at any time. 
 
The persons charged with the operation of the units 
have to check the units before starting work to detect 
obvious defects on the operating and safety elements 
and to make sure that the safety devices have not been 
removed. 
 
If any faults are stated the supervisor is to be informed. 
 
If the faults affect the unit’s operational reliability, opera-
tion is to be stopped! 
Regular maintenance and care, at least after each 
heating period is the basic condition for a long ser-
vice life and a faultless operation of the unit. 
Make sure to keep the unit free from dust and other 
deposits and to clean it only with a dry or humid cloth 
(do not use water jet). 
Do not use sharp or solvent-containing cleaning 
agents. 
Check the suction opening for combustion air as well 
as the injector fitted behind it and the gas nozzle re-
gularly to make sure that they are not dirty. 
Clean gas burner and gas nozzle regularly.
Clean baffle plate regularly.
Check suction and blowing out lattice regularly to see 
whether it is dirty and clean it, when necessary. 
 
 
When the unit is being maintained, set or repai-
red, the gas supply has to be cut off and the 
mains plug has to be unplugged from the mains 
socket! 
 
Setting and maintenance work is to be carried 
out only by authorized specialists! 
 
Any operation/handling which does not corre-
spond to that indicated in these instructions is 
prohibited, otherwise we will not be responsi-
ble and the guarantee will become void!
