Remark

For determining the correct maintenance frequency, it is advised to have the service and maintenance engineer check the gas side and the water side of the device three months after installation. The maintenance frequency can be determined on the basis of this check.

Remark

Regular maintenance lengthens the life of the device.

Both the end user and the service and maintenance engineer are responsible for regular maintenance. They shall make clear appointments about this.

Remark

If the device is not regularly maintained, the warranty will become null and void.
