For your safety
Please follow these safety instructions closely to avoid the risk of injury to persons and damage to property.
f you smell gas
Don’t smoke! Don’t use naked
flames or cause sparks (e.g. by
switching lights or electrical
appliances on and off)
Open windows and doors
Close the gas shut-off valve
Inform your heating engineers/service
contractors from outside the building
Observe the safety regulations of
your gas supply company (see gas
meter) and those of your heating
engineers (see start-up or instruction
report).
n emergencies
Immediately switch off the power
supply, e.g. at the separate fuse or
power supply disconnect switch
(unless there is a smell of gas).
Close the shut-off valves in the oil
pipes or close the gas shut-off valve,
whichever applicable.
Use suitable extinguishers in the
event of fire.
Work on the equipment
Installation, initial start-up, maintenance
and repairs must be carried out by a
competent person (heating engineer/
service contractor).
Before work is undertaken on the
equipment/heating system, switch off
the power supply voltage (e.g. at the
separate fuse or power supply electrical
isolator switch) and take steps to prevent
it from being switched on again.
Gas-fired systems: Also close the gas
shut-off valve and make secure to
prevent unauthorized use.
nstallation of additional components
The installation of additional
components which have not been
tested together with the boiler can
adversely affect the function and
performance of the boiler.
Our warranty does not cover and we
accept no liability for damage
attributable to the installation of
such components.
Boiler room conditions
Do not use a room in which the
airis polluted by halogenated
hydro-carbons (e.g. as contained
in aerosols, paints, solvents and
cleaning agents)
Do not use a room subject to high
levels of dust
Do not use a room subject to
permanently high humidity
The room should be frost-protected
Max. ambient temperature 35 °C.
Provide good ventilation and do not
close or obstruct vents (if installed).
This symbol indicates a
reference to other
instructions which must
be observed.
This header denotes special
instructions which apply to
the use of the Vitotronic 100,
G 1 in a multi-boiler system.
The main controls
The settings required for operating your heating system are made on the
Vitotronic 00, GC of each boiler and on the Vitotronic 300-K, MW S.
If you system is equipped with remote controls, you can also use the remote
controls for some of the settings
See operating instructions for the remote control
The control unit is behind the hinged cover. The hinged cover is opened by
