•

Air supply and flue gas discharge;

 

 

•

Electrical connection;

 

 

•

Check and adjust the CO2-value

3.2

Packaging

Carefully remove the packaging in order to prevent damaging the device.

 

 

You can best unpack the device when it is close to or on its definite place.

Caution

Move the device only standing up. Make sure not to damage the device after unpacking.

3.3Ambient conditions The device is suitable for both closed and open combustion. If installed as a closed device, it is independent of the installation area for the required air supply. Therefore there are no additional ventilation regulations.

If the device is installed as an open device, it should meet the local guidelines and ventilation regulations for open devices.

The possible device types are B23, C13, C33, C43, C53 and C63.

Caution

In view of a risk of explosion and corrosion of the device, do not use the device in areas where chemical substances are stored or used. Some propellants, bleaching agents, degreasants and the like spread explosive vapours and/or corrosion-accelerating vapours. Use of the device in an area where such substances are present makes the warranty null and void.
