The warnings contained in this chapter have been written for the appliance user, the installer and the service
technician.
The “operating instructions” chapter of this manual must be read carefully as it provides information on the operation
and the operating limits of the appliance.
• After the removal of all the packaging, check that the appliance has not been damaged. In case of doubt, do not attempt
to use the product but refer to the supplier. Packing materials (cardboard box, wooden crate, nails, staples, plastic bags,
polystyrene, etc.) must not be left within reach of children in that these items represent a potential hazard and must be
disposed of in a responsible manner.
• Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operations, disconnect the appliance from the mains electricity supply by
switching off at the main switch and/or any other isolating device.
• In the case of a fault and/or malfunction in the appliance, shut down the system. Do not interfere with or attempt any
repairs. Call for professionally qualified technical assistance only.
• Any warranty repairs to the appliance must be carried out exclusively by the manufacturer’s authorized service dealers
using original spare parts. Non-compliance with the above requirements may compromise the safety of the appliance and
invalidate the warranty. In order to guarantee the efficiency of the appliance and its correct operation, it must be serviced
regularly by professionally qualified personnel in line with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Only original accessories or optional extras (including electrical parts) must be used with the appliance.
• Should there be a smell of gas present in the room where the appliance is installed, DO NOT attempt to activate any
electric switches, telephones or any other equipment that may cause sparks. Open doors and windows immediately to
create a current of air and ventilate the room. Shut-off the main gas supply valve (at the meter), or on the cylinder in the
case of bottled gas, and call an authorized service centre.
• Do not attempt to interfere with the appliance in any way.

the water heater for the first time, make sure that it is connected to a water supply and central heating system compatible
with its performance characteristics.
• Prior to start-up, the central heating pipes should be flushed to remove any residues that could compromise the operation
of the appliance.
• The domestic power supply must be checked by a qualified electrician to ensure that it can support the maximum power
absorption of the appliance, as indicated on the appliance rating plate (positioned on the casing). In particular, make sure
that the cable ratings are adequate for the power absorbed.
• Do not use adapters; multiple sockets or extension leads to connect the appliance to the power supply.
• The appliance must be connected to the mains power supply through an appropriate electrical isolator in accordance with
the current wiring regulations.
• If the cable is damaged in any way, switch off the appliance and have the cable replaced by a suitably qualified
technician.
