MAINTENANCE

9.1 Warnings

The procedures detailed in this chapter 

must be carried out only Gas Safety Reg-
istered Engineer

. Thus you are advised to 

contact an Authorised Service Agent. 

For Ireland (IE), the servicing work must 
be carried out by a competent Person. 

For effi cient and continuous operation of the 
boiler you are advised to have, at least once 
a year, maintenance and cleaning done by 
an Approved Service Engineer. 

Isolate the appliance from the electricity 
supply

 by turning off the fused spur isola-

tion switch adjacent to the appliance and 
turn off the gas cock, before carrying out 
any procedures, whatsoever, for cleaning, 
maintenance, opening or dismantling boiler 
panels. The Engineer should complete the 
Service Interval Record at the back of the 
manual.

9.2  

Dismantling the external 
panels

Front panel

• Unscrew screws  A and remove the front 

panel  

D by pulling it and pushing it to-

wards the top so that it is freed from the
