1.1 Other instructions
All instructions relevant to your system can be found
in the Hoval system manual! In exceptional cases,
the instructions can be found enclosed with the
components.

- Standards, regulations
1.2 Safety instructions
The system may only be put into operation if all relevant
standards and safety regulations have been complied
with. However, for trial operation, the following are the
minimum conditions requiring fulfilment:
1. A safety valve has been installed (closed-circuit
system)
2. Controller in operation (connected to the power
supply)
3. The sensor for the safety temperature limiter is
located in the immersion sleeve
4. The system is filled with water
5. An expansion vessel is attached
6. Flue gas outlets connected to the flue gas conduit
at the chimney.
7. It must be ensured that there is an adequate supply
of fresh air.
8. The burner is preset
