WARNING
Combustion chamber insulation in this product
contains ceramic ber material. Ceramic bers
can be converted to cristobalite in very high
temperature applications. The International Agency
for Research on Cancer (IARC) has concluded,
Crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz
or cristobalite from occupational sources is
carcinogenic to humans (Group1). Avoid breathing
dust and contact with skin and eyes. Use NIOSH
certied dust respirator (N95). This type of
respirator is based on the OSHA requirements
for cristobalite at the time this document was
written. Other types of respirators may be needed
depending on the job site conditions. Current
NIOSH recommendations can be found on the
NIOSH website at http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/
homepage.html. NIOSH approved respirators,
manufacturers, and phone numbers are also listed
on this website. Wear long-sleeved, loose tting
clothing, gloves, and eye protection. Apply enough
water to the combustion chamber lining to prevent
dust. Wash potentially contaminated clothes
separately from other clothing. Rinse clothes
washer thoroughly.
NIOSH stated First Aid. Eye: Irrigate immediately.
Breathing: Fresh air.

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING
WARNING
If you do not follow these instructions
exactly, a re or explosion may result
causing property damage, personal injury
or loss of life.
• This appliance is equipped with an ignition device
which automatically lights burner. Do NOT try to
light this burner by hand.
• Before operating smell all around appliance area for
gas. Be sure to smell next to oor because some gas
is heavier than air and will settle to the oor.
• Use only your hand to turn the gas shuto valve.
Never use tools. If valve will not turn by hand, do not
try to repair it, call a qualied service technician. Force
or attempted repair may result in re or explosion.
• Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualied service
technician to inspect appliance and to replace any part
of control system and any gas control which has been
under water.
• Do not block the ow of combustion or
ventilation air to boiler.

If a fault develops, or is suspected, call your Service
Technician as soon as possible. Go through the following
check list before you contact Service Agency.
• Is electricity supply on?
• Is display ON and symbols displayed?
• Is symbol displayed?
• Is gas supply on?
• Is main water supply turned on?
• Is system pressure correct?
• Are boiler temperature controls set high enough?
• Is room thermostat (if tted) set high enough?
• Are radiator valves open?
4.2 Monthly
• Inspect combustion air, vent, and condensate drain
piping for deterioration, leaks or sagging. Contact
qualied agency, as necessary.
• Inspect system piping for leaks. Contact qualied
agency, as necessary.
• Inspect condensate drain trap for sediment or
blockage. Contact qualied agency if cleaning
required.
• Check air vent(s) for leakage.
• Follow OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS to return to normal
operation.
WARNING
Burn and scald hazard. Verify Safety Relief Valve
discharge piping run to safe discharge location before
conducting maintenance procedure. Contact qualied
agency to correct improper piping.
!
4.3 Check According to Manufacturer’s
Instructions
Safety Relief Valve - Refer to manufacturer’s instructions.
4.4 Annually or Beginning Each Heating Season
• Contact qualied agency to perform maintenance and
cleaning per Installation, Operation and Maintenance
manual. Inspection will include examining all ue
product carrying areas, vent system, burner and heat
exchanger.
• Will also include lling boiler with water if drained as
part of End of Heating Season procedure.
• Condensate trap may require cleaning and relling.
4.5 End of Heating Season, if boiler not used for
domestic hot water
• Follow instructions to TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE.
See section 2.
• Contact qualied agency to drain heating system (if
system does not use antifreeze) and condensate trap
if heating system is exposed to freezing temperatures
while out of service.
WARNING
Asphyxiation hazard. Contact qualied agency if
condensate trap is not lled with water.
