Series F2 80 C 2.2 HOW TO TURN ON AND OFF THE HEATER The heater must be turn on for the first time by qualified service engineers. ! Before starting the heater, qualified service engineers must check that: ! ! ! ! the rating data are compatible with those of the gas and power supply lines; the calibration is compatible with the heater power; the flue exhaust duct is working properly; the combustion air intake and flue exhaust are carried out correctly according to the existing standards.
END USER SWITCHING-OFF To Have: the heater connected to the gas and power supply lines. 10 - To turn off the heater set the room thermostat to the minimum value. The burner will turn off, while fans will continue to work until the appliance is completely cooled. is absolutely forbidden to turn off the heater by cutting the power off since this ! Itoperation can damage the appliance. If you cut the power to the heater the axial fans stop working immediately and the limit thermostat is activated.

Series F2 80 C L.P.G. (Propane – Butane Mix) For the first pressure drop required in the supply, it is advisable to install a pressure regulator near the liquid gas tank so as to reduce the pressure to 1.5 bar. A pressure regulator for a second pressure drop should be placed near the heater to reduce the pressure from 1.5 bar to 30 mbar (306 mm H2O) (allowed tolerance between 20 mbar and 35 mbar). L.P.G.

Otherwise, readjust the off-set, which in any case MUST never be higher than the maximum off-set value (see Table 8) or lower than the minimum off-set value (see Table 8), until the CO2 percentage is equal to the value specified in Table 4 at page 20.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING 9- Replace the label applied to the heater showing the type of gas for which the unit is set with the other one indicating the type of gas actually used. NATURAL GAS AND L.P.G.
Series F2 80 C 5.3 MAINTENANCE An accurate maintenance is always source of saving and safety. Maintenance for heating units must be done, preferably at the beginning of winter, by qualified service engineers. To ensure a correct and continuous operation it is recommended to carry out, at least once a year, a general cleaning of the appliance (by paying particular attention to clean heat exchangers and fan grids) e the combustion tests in conformity with specific regulations on the matter. 5.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING 5.5 FAULTS AND SOLUTIONS Before performing particular tests, make sure that: A) The power supply is connected: 230 V ± 10% 50 Hz and the appliance is properly grounded. B) The gas supply is connected. C) Pressures and flow rates are within the predefined limits. An insufficient gas supply corresponds to a pressure value lower than that indicated by the Manufacturer. The causes can be: If the appliance runs on Natural Gas: - a) Insufficient counter.
