check the electrical system in the property, as the
manufacturer will not be held liable for damage caused by
the failure to earth the appliance properly or by anomalies
in the supply of power. Make sure that the residential
electrical system is adequate for the maximum power
absorbed by the unit, which is indicated on the rating
plate. In addition, check that the section of cabling is
appropriate for the power absorbed by the boiler.
The boiler operates with alternating current, as indicated
in the Technical Information table in Section 10, where the
maximum absorbed power is also indicated. Make sure
that the connections for the neutral and live wires
correspond to the indications in the diagram. The
appliance electrical connections are situated on the
reverse of the control panel.
IMPORTANT!
In the event that the power supply cord must be changed,
replace it with one with the same specifications
