First starng up and Use
The rst starng up and the maintenance of the boiler must be performed by a professionally
qualied sta (for example the installer or the Service Centres authorized by ITALTHERM)
Gas conversion from a gas of a specic family to a gas of another family (from natural gas to LPG or vice
versa) to another gas, can be made also when the gas boiler is already installed, but only by a qualied
technician. The technician will check that:
fthe label technical data of the gas boiler correspond to those of the gas available;
fthe main burner regulaon is compable with the gas boiler output;
fthe chimney works correctly, expelling the combuson products;
fthe air supply and the combuson products evacuaon work correctly, in accordance with the re-
quirements in force;
fthe condions for a correct venlaon are guaranteed, also when the gas boiler is located inside a
closed space (with suitable characteriscs).
The User must not touch sealed items nor break the seals. Only specialized technicians and the
ocial technical service can break the seals of sealed items.
The boiler is ed with a safety ue ow detecon device that should never be bypassed or put
out of order. If the pressure switch must be replaced, use the original spare part only. In case of
repeated intervenons of the device (and consequent boiler locks), check that the Flue Products
Outlet System is ecient and made according to the laws in force (see examples in paragraph
"Chimney connecons" on page 18) and that the air supply and room venlaon system is ecient
and made according to the laws in force.
When the boiler is o for a long period see the Paragraph "Boiler inacvity" on page 11 for the
necessary precauons about the electrical supply, the gas supply and the protecon against
freezing.
Do not touch the heated surfaces of the boiler, as the doors, the ue, the chimney pipe, etc.,
also aer the boiler operaon because, for a certain me, these surfaces are overheated. Any

enced people be close to the boiler, during its operaon.
fDo not expose the wall hung gas boiler to water or other liquids sprinklings, or to vapours directly
coming from gas cookers/hobs.
fDo not obstruct the air inlet or ue outlet terminals, even momentarily or parally.

fThis appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilies, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervi-
sion or instrucon concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. (CEI EN 60335-1:2008-07 § 7.12)
fIf the gas boiler is going to be denively unused, call a qualied technician to carry out all required
operaons, checking in parcular disconnecon of gas, water and electrical supplies.

Maintenance operaons must be carried out in compliance with the manufacturer prescripons, and in
compliance with the laws and rules presently in force for what is not menoned in this handbook; we
advice to perform them at least once a year to maintain the boiler’s performance.
Appliance booklet or central plant booklet
All appliances must have an appliance booklet (for outputs less or equal 35 kW) or a central plant book-
let (for outputs more than 35 kW). All maintenance and servicing operaons and combuson checks
must be wrien on the booklet, together with the name of the person responsible for servicing.
Combuson checking
Combuson checking consists of a control of the boiler eciency. Boilers that, aer the checking, will
have eciency rates lower than the ones required and not changeable with suitable adjustments (that
must be performed by qualied technicians), must be replaced.
Boiler operaon and servicing
The user (owner or tenant of the at where the boiler is installed) or the administrator of the block of
ats (in case of a central heang system) are responsible for the appliance operaon and servicing; they
can both transfer the responsibility of the servicing and eventually of the operaon to another person,
which must be a qualied technician as indicated by the Laws. Even if the user or the administrator de-
cide to assume personally this responsibility, ordinary servicing of the warm air heater and combuson
checks must be anyway carried out by a qualied technician

Externally the boiler, suitably posioned in the building
(generally by the installer or by the electrician), two devices
that the user should access to, are present. The presence
and the characteriscs of these devices are prescribed by
the regulaon in force.
Two-pole switch: it is located usually close to the boiler and it's for electrically insulang the boiler itself
from the domesc mains power supply network.
Room thermostat: it commands electrically the boiler to acvate or deacvate the heang system, in
order to keep the room temperature (detected by a sensor) within a value set by the user, Regulaon
in force prescribe its posioning, the temperature limits within the user can adjust it and the periods
of heang. On trade are available programmable room thermostats: most of them allow to make a
weekly programming of various temperature levels, besides special programs for various purposes.
We suggest to choose original ITALTHERM accessories

Boiler acvaon
fRotate the knob 12 on Summer 11 if you want to have only hot water producon, or on Win-
ter 9 if you need both room heang and hot water producon.
fOpening a hot water cock, the burner ignites and, aer a short me (that also depends on the char-
acteriscs of the plant externally the boiler) hot water ows from the cock.
fIn Winter mode, consequently a request by the Room thermostat, the burner ignites and the
produced heat is sent, by means of the system vector liquid, to the heang elements of the building.
If, in the mean me, a Domesc Hot Water request takes place, this laer has the priority for the
whole request me. Since the DHW requests are usually limited in me, they generally don't have
any eect on the room heang.
Temperature adjustment

in the deep cold season and/or with poor building thermal insulaon (or if you noce that the burner
stays on for a long me, but the room temperature rises too slowly) prefer higher sengs. On the
contrary, if you noce that the room temperature exceeds too much, for thermal inera, the value

On this type of boiler, we suggest to
set the knob in such a way to have
a comfortable hot water tempera-
ture by drawing only hot water or
eventually by mixing it with a lile
cold water. Avoid maximum values
if not strictly needed, that will force
to mix the hot water with bigger
quanes of cold water. Consider that, because of the dispersions along the pipings, a certain me
is needed to have a stable water temperature on the cock outlet, therefore the best temperature

The eects of the periods of inacvity can be relevant in parcular situaons such as in ats used only
for some months per year, most of all in cold places.
The user will have to decide to put the boiler in the SAFETY SHUT OFF state disconnecng all the sup-
plies, or to . When there is the possibility of freezing
it is convenient to chose between the advantages and the disadvantages of the SAFETY SHUT OFF and
of the Stand By/An Freezing Way.
Safety shut o
fTurn o the general switch on the Electrical Supply Line of the Boiler;
fClose the Gas Tap;
When it is expected that the temperature is going to decrease under 0°C, call a technician to do
the following:
• Fill the system with an an-freezing soluon (unless the system was already lled with said solu-
on) otherwise it must be completely emped. Noce that if it had been necessary to restore
the pressure (because of possible loss) in an heang system already lled with an An freezing
soluon, the concentraon of the soluon could have decreased and it could not guarantee the
An freezing Protecon.
• completely empty the hot and cold sanitary water system, including the sanitary circuit and the
boiler’s sanitary exchanger.
Remark: the boiler is equipped with a system which protects the main components from the excep-
onal cases of mechanical lock, due to the inacvity in presence of water and scale. The an-
locking funcon can’t work in Safety shut o mode, because of the lack of electrical supply.
Before re-igning the boiler, have a technician check that the pump is not blocked due to inac-
vity (for the technician: unscrew the plug in the centre of the cap to access the rotor sha and
turn it with a screwdriver or other suitable tool).
Stand-by mode with an-frost & an-locking funcon
When the boiler is le in stand-by during a period of inacvity, it will be protected against freezing by
several funcons provided in the electronic controller, which heat the parts involved when the tempera-
ture falls below factory set values.
The an-frost heang is accomplished by turning on the burner and pump.
In addion, when the boiler is in stand-by, it periodically acvates the main internal components to
avoid rare cases of blockage due to inacvity in the presence of water and lime. This can also occur
when the boiler is locked (red lamp on) provided that the system pressure is correct.
In order for these systems to be acve:
• the boiler must be receiving gas and electricity;
• boiler must be le in stand-by mode (Summer/Winter knob on, green lamp ashing);
• system pressure must be correct (1÷1.5 bar in a cold state, minimum 0.5 bar)
In case of lack of gas, the burner won’t turn on and the boiler will go in LOCK OUT state (red lamp on or
ashing). Nevertheless the pump will work, making the water circulate in the system and reducing in
this way the possibility of freezing.

12
ATTENTION: the an-frost protecons cannot intervene in the absence of electricity. If you an-
cipate this possibility, we recommend you add a good brand of an-freeze to the heang sys-
tem, following the producer’s instrucons.

When the power comes back on, the boiler will check the temperature measured by the two
probes and, if it suspects freezing veried by a parcular automac control cycle, alarm 39 will
be triggered. For more details, see the relave descripon in the paragraph "Alarms - boiler
block" on page 30.
We recommend that you completely empty the hot and cold sanitary water system, including
the sanitary circuit and the boiler’s sanitary exchanger. The an-frost funcon does not protect
the sanitary circuit outside the boiler.
“Ambient An-Frost” Funcon
Note: if you want to use the “Ambient An-Frost” funcon that is oen available in common room
thermostats or chronothermostats, it is necessary to leave the boiler in Winter mode and NOT
in stand-by.
The “Ambient An-Frost” funcon does not protect the sanitary circuit outside the boiler and,
especially, in areas where the heang system doesn’t reach. For this reason, we recommend
that you empty the cold and hot sanitary water from the parts of the system that are at risk of
freezing.

In case of boiler installaon in rooms where temperature can drop down to 0°, it is advisable
to ll the heang circuit with an anfreeze liquid specic for heang systems, propylenic glycol

Cleaning and preservaon of the systems
The eciency, the reliability and the safety of the boilers, as all generic thermal systems and compo-
nents, depend strictly on the features of the water that supply them and on their treatment.
A proper treatment of the water improves the protecon of the systems against corrosions (and there-
fore perforaons, noise, leaks, etc.) and limestone incrustaons that drascally reduce the eciency
of the thermal exchange (consider that 1 mm of limestone incrustaons reduces of 18% the thermal
exchange of the heang element on which it has been formed).
ITALTHERM guarantees its products only if the characteriscs of the water comply with UNI 8065, re-
ported also in laws on energy saving.
Thoroughly wash the heang system with water, before connecng the boiler. This will elimi-
nate residual like welding drops, slag, hemp, masc, mud, rust and other dirt from pipes and
radiators. Otherwise, these substances could enter the boiler and damage the internal compo-
nents (pump etc.).

The gas connecon, as generally the boiler installaon, must be done by qualied personnel as
prescribed by the regulaon in force, because a faulty gas connecon could lead to re, explosion
and other very serious damages to persons, animals and objects. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for any damage arising from that situaon.
fVerify what follows:
• cleaning of all system gas pipes in order to avoid the presence of work residuals that could com-
promise the correct boiler funconing;
• gas line and ramp conformity with laws and rules currently in force;
• internal and external ghtness of the gas system and connecons;
• supply pipe must have a secon greater than or equal to the boiler one;
• supply gas must correspond to the one for which the boiler has been set: otherwise, it's manda-
tory to ask to qualied personnel to set the boiler for the correct gas type;
• an intercepon valve must be installed upstream the appliance.
fOpen the meter valve and purge the air that is inside the system pipes (including all the appliances).

The link of the room thermostat works with a safety extra low voltage (SELV); connect it to
the voltage free contacts of the room thermostat/chronothermostat. On NO account must any
electrical voltage be applied to these terminals.
All low-voltage wirings (e.g. Room Thermostat or Chronothermostat for trade) must be kept
separate from power supply cables, as to avoid boiler malfunconing due to electrical noise. It
is advisable to use separate tubes for them.
The boiler must be connected to a 220÷240V - 50Hz electrical power supply. In any case, the power
supply voltage must be within the range –15% ... +10% from the nominal value (230V); otherwise it
may cause malfuncons or failures. It is necessary to respect the polaries L-N (Live L=brown; - Neu-
tral N=blue) - otherwise the boiler may not work - and the earth connecon (yellow-green cable).
Place upstream the boiler a bipolar switch in compliance with the regulaon currently in force.
The installaon must be made complying the regulaon currently in force and generally with the
standard cra rules.
For the general electrical supply of the appliance the bipolar switch should be used. The use of adaptors,
mulple taps and extensions is not allowed.
If the supply cable must be replaced, use one of the following cable types: H05VVF or H05-VVH2-F. It is

open the control panel cover, unlock its fastening device and disconnect it from the terminals. Install
the new cable proceeding in the reverse way. When connecng the cable to the boiler, it’s mandatory:
• to leave the Earth wire about 2 cm longer than the other (Live and Neutral) wires;
• to lock the cable upstream the terminals by means of the suitable fastening device.
Electrical safety of the appliance is only achieved when it is well connected to an ecient earth-
ing system, executed as indicated by the safety rules actually in force.
A qualied technician must check that the electrical system is in line with the maximum power allowed
by the boiler, indicated on the data plate, with parcular aenon to the cables secon.
ITALTHERM S.r.l. declines any responsibility for damages to persons, animals or things caused by
the faulty or missing connecon of the boiler earthing and by failure to comply with the rules.

Indicaons to connect the duct to the chimney (except of dierent prescripons by Naonal or Local
Regulaon):
fDon't lean the ue pipe into the chimney, but stop it before the inner surface of the chimney. The
axis of the ue pipe must intersect the axis of the chimney or of the ue duct.
fOn the boiler ue outlet, there must be a vercal ue pipe which length must be at least two mes
the diameter of the pipe itself, measured on the pipe connecon on the boiler.
fAer the vercal length, the pipe must have a minimum upwards slope of 5% and a maximum length
of 2500 mm.
fThe boiler has been tested with a 1 meter chimney length.
fTo calculate the chimney dimensions, refer to the Flue Mass Flow Rate and to the Flue Temperature
data (see "Technical data" on page 34).
