product before you carry out the gas leak-
tightness test.
▶
If, during gas leak-tightness tests, you
have closed the gas stopcock that is in-
stalled upstream of the product, relieve
the gas line pressure before you open this
gas stopcock.
▶
Do not reduce the gas pipe dimension downstream of the
gas meter.
▶
Maintain the dimension right up to the product.
▶
Select the correct gas stopcock.
▶
Remove the residues from the gas pipe by blowing
through the gas pipe beforehand.

Caution.
Risk of material damage caused by corro-
sion
Due to non-diffusion-tight plastic pipes in the
heating installation, air gets into the heating
water. Air in the heating water causes corro-
sion in the heat generator circuit and in the
product.
▶
If you use non-diffusion-tight plastic pipes
in the heating installation, ensure that no
air gets into the heat generator circuit.
Note
In order to keep heat losses to a minimum, we
recommend that you provide heat insulation for
the water pipe spigots on the product's outlet and
on the installation.
▶
If you are using plastic pipes in the heating installation,
install a safety cut-out in the heating flow.
–
The safety cut-out is required to protect the heating
installation against temperature-related damage if a
fault occurs.
▶
Connect a control or a safety cut-out to the electronics.
