Operation of appliances
Filling the water heater
Before starting your water heater for the first time and
after draining:
1. Check to see that the security/drainage valve (14) is
closed (a).
2. Switch the water pump on (main switch or pump
switch) (b).
3. Open the hot water taps in the washroom or in the
kitchen (mixer tap or single control mixer in the « hot »
position) until the water heater is full of water, all air has
escaped and water is running freely.
4. If there has been a frost, it is possible that filling
will not take place due to an ice plug formed in remaining
water.
In this case, switch the water heater on (for not more
than 2 minutes) so that you can fill it. Defrost frozen
pipes by heating the living compartment.

Start up
Warning: never operate the water heater without water.
Remove the outside cover from the flue.
Open the gas cylinder and gas supply pipe taps.
Switch the water-heater on by placing the selector switch
figure (A) onto required temperature (b).
If the gas pipe is full of air, it will take about one minute
before the gas reaches the burner. If the appliance
indicates “failure” (red light) repeat the process by
switching off the appliance.
Waiting for 5 minutes and then starting again.
