system,ttedincompliancewithcurrentlegislation.
Cautions:
• Checktheeciencyoftheearthingsystemand,ifrequired,
calloutaqualiedengineer.
• Check that the mains power supply is the same as the
power input stated on the equipment nameplate and in
this manual.
• Donotreverseliveandneutral;theheatercanbeconnected
tothemainspowersupplywithaplug-socketonlyifthe
latter does not allow live and neutral to be swapped.
• The electrical system and, more specically, the cable
section, must be suitable for the equipment maximum
power input, shown on the nameplate and in this manual.
• Do not pull electric cables and keep them away from heat
sources.
NOTE:It is compulsory to install, upstream of the power
cable, a switch with a protection (fuses or automatic),
as required by existing regulations. The switch must be
visible, accessible and placed at a distance lower than
3 metres from the control compartment; any electrical
operation (installation and maintenance) must be
performed by qualied sta.
2.4. Use
Do not allow children or inexperienced people to use any
electrically powered equipment.
The following instructions must be followed:
• do not touch the equipment with wet or damp parts of your
body and/or with bare feet;
• donotleavetheequipmentexposedtotheelements(rain,
sun etc...) unless it is adequately protected;
• do not use the gas pipes to earth electrical equipment;
• donotwettheheaterwithwaterorotheruidsunlessitis
suitably arranged for this purpose;
• do not place any object over the equipment;
• do not touch the moving parts of the heater.

If the equipment is not to be used for a certain period of time,

If, instead, the equipment is not to be used any more, perform
the following operations:
• aqualiedpersonshalldisconnectthepowersupplycable
from the main switch;
• close the manual valve on the duct supplying fuel to the
burner by removing or locking the control handwheel.

In case of doubt, measure the CO2with the burner working at
maximum output rate and the room ventilated only through the
air vents for the burner and then measure again with the door
closed. C02value must be the same under both conditions. If
in the same room there are several burners or aspirators that
can work together, measure with all the equipment working at
the same time.
Do not obstruct the room air vents, the burner fan intake
opening, any air ductwork and intake or dissipation grilles,
avoiding in this way:
• stagnationintheroomofanytoxicand/orexplosivemixture;
• smoulderingcombustion:dangerous,expensive,pollutant.
