2.c Room ventilation
The installation of the water heater must comply with regulations in
force including any updates. See paragraph 2.a
Warning: This device can only be installed in venues that are per-
manently ventilated according to regulation in force.
Air circulation
It is vital that areas where gas devices are installed (type B) have
access to the amount of air necessary for the regular combustion
of gas as well as the ventilation of the venue.
- It is prohibited to use an extractor fan, replaces and other simi-
lar devices at the same time as the water heater
- The area where the water heater is installed must have a regular
ow of air for ventilation.
Air ow
The ow of air must occur by the following means:
- Permanent openings in the wall that lead outdoors
- Single or collective ventilation ducts.
The air used for ventilation must be taken directly from an outside
location, that is far from sources of pollution.
Indirect ventilation from adjacent areas are permitted with the fol-
lowing limitations:
- The adjacent area is equipped with direct ventilation
- The devices within the area to ventilate are connected to a waste
duct
- The adjacent area does not contain a bedroom and is not a com-
mon area;
- The adjacent area is not a re hazard such as a storage area for
ammable materials, garage etc.
- The adjacent area is not lower than the area to ventilate as this
might lead to an opposing draught (this can be caused by other
devices that operate on the basis of combustion, a replace or
any suction device that have not been given an adequate air
supply)
- The air ow from the adjacent area occurs freely through perma-
nent openings.

Before installing the device blow in the gas pipe to eliminate any
residue from its manufacturing. Connect the water heater to the
internal system’s gas pipes and place a tap above the device for
the halting and release of gas.
The water heaters that are powered by tanks of L.P.G. gas with
regulation and interception devices, must be connected correctly
so to guarantee the safety of persons and the surrounding area.
Follow all related regulations.
When initially installing the device qualied persons must perform
the following tests:
- Check that the internal and external parts of the gas supplying
device are sealed;
- check that the gas quantity supplied is equal to that required by
the device;
- check that the device receives the type of gas it is manufactured
to process;
- check that the gas supply pressure does not go beyond the ma-
ximum pressure values displayed on the information plate;
- check that the gas supply system supplies the necessary amount
of gas to the device and that it is equipped with all the necessary
safety devices prescribed by current regulations.
If the user is absent for a lengthy period, turn off the main gas
supply tap.
Do not obstruct the area’s ventilation openings where the device is
installed to avoid dangers such as the build up of toxic and explosi-
ve substances. Do not utilize gas tubes to earth electrical devices.
2.f Water connection

2.g Disposal of waste product
This B11BS water heater is supplied with a device for releasing
ue gas.
For output of combustion by-products refer to the regulations in
force including any updates. See paragraph 2.a
The gas devices with an attachment for a waste gas ue must be
connected directly to properly working chimney or ue pipe; only if
these devices are not present is it then permitted to release gases
directly outside.
The tting of devices to a chimney or ue pipe must occur via a
smoke channel. Smoke channels must be connected to a chim-
ney or a smoke channel in the same or adjacent area to where
the device is installed and must be made of materials resistant to
mechanical strain, heat and the effects of combustion by-products
and their condensation. The ue gas temperature must always be
above condensation temperature in all points of the smoke channel
regardless of external conditions.
FLUE GAS RELEASE SAFETY DEVICE
The product is equipped with a series of ue gas release safety
devices. The device ensures the correct release of combustion by-
products; the ow of combustible gas to the release conduit and
the smoke channel.
The safety device contains a “thermostat”, it can stop the ow of
gas to the main burner and the pilot ame.
The safety device can be triggered by the partial or total obstruction
of the release conduit or the smoke channel.
To reset the device it is necessary to press the ue gas ther-
mostat key (Fig. 7) close use a screwdriver and reopening the
hot water tap.

3.a Function
The water heater is used for the production of instant hot water.
The removal of hot water can be preformed by multiple taps.
By turning on the relative tap, the main burner switches on heating
the water that passes.
These devices with a modiable ame are particularly suited for
usage with mechanical mixers and thermostats.
This water heater, in contrast with other water heaters with a xed
ame, has a modulation valve to optimise the water heaters opera-
tion. It allows for the water to be heated using less water pressure
and gas by modulating the ame according to the amount of water
used, maintaining the water extracted at a constant temperature.
The water heater uses automatic variation that is “PROPORTIO-
NAL”, able to change the gas consumption (modulating the ame)
to respond to the amount of water extracted.
This device is equipped with an electronic tool that is powered by
a 1.5 V battery that automatically switches on the pilot ame and
then the burner every time that hot water is extracted.
The ame is switched on using a card that ionizes the ame
Lipari Tn 11i: for the extraction of 2,5 to 5 l/min the temperature
of the water supplied remains at 60°C, (in this case the has valve
supplies the burner with the necessary quantity of gas proportional
to the water supplied), above 5 l/min to 11 l/min the water tempera-
ture varies from 60°C to 40°C.
Lipari Tn 14i: for the extraction of 2,5 to 7 l/min the temperature
of the water supplied remains at 60°C, (in this case the has valve
supplies the burner with the necessary quantity of gas proportional
to the water supplied), above 7 l/min to 14 l/min the water tempera-
ture varies from 60°C to 40°C
3.b Usage
Ensure that the gas tap and all water taps are switched off
- Turn on the Main gas supply tap or that of the gas tank if using
Liqueed Petroleum Gas (L.P.G.)
- Open the gas tap, not supplied with the device, placed immedia-
tely before the water heater on the gas input pipe
- Rotate knob A towards the large ame (ON ), during rotation,
when the small ame is reached it is necessary to press lightly
while turning until it reaches its destination.
- When hot water is requested, the device automatically turns on
the pilot ame, this lights the main burner.
- When the hot water request has terminated (turning the water
tap off) the burner automatically switches off, the device then
awaits another heating request.
If after 60 seconds it does not switch on, the ame detector inter-
rupts the ow of gas and blocks the device.
To reuse the device after it has been blocked, close the hot water
extraction tap and then reopen it to restart the sequence.
If the main burner accidentally switches off, the device will attempt
to turn it on again.
If within 60 seconds the device does not function it is blocked.
The device is built to function with normal water pressure; in addi-
tion a temperature selector B is also supplied.
Rotate the knob completely to the left to obtain the maximum water
output or completely to the right for the minimum water output.
The machine is switched off by rotating knob A to the ( OFF) po-
sition.
When the water heater is not used for long periods close the gas
supply tap or the LPG gas valve on the tank.
For the best operational results it is recommended to have a quali-
ed technician service the machine at least once a year.
Gas economizer
The device is equipped with a gas economizing device which is
used to choose the temperature of the water so it may be supplied
at the temperature necessary while saving gas.
The economizing device is activated by turning the knob A until it
reaches the picture of the small ame (MIN ). Using the econo-
mizer limits the amount of heating when the hot water usage is mo-
dest (water supplied is already warm or there is a reduced usage,
for example in summer).
DANGER OF FREEZING
If there is a possibility that the area where the device is stalled
could reach below 0°C, the device must be emptied of all water
contained.
