(models 800 - 1000)". For these models the magnesium anode
is supplied in a cardboard box.
The following items are delivered in a plastic bag inside the
packaging:
− Instruction manual
− Bar code label
− Hydraulic test certificate
− Energy label (to be applied to device upon installation)
− No. 4 adjustable feet to be mounted during installation
(for models 800 - 1000 only).

the edges are positioned correctly. The edges are not re-
quired to be closed completely
− Place the front protection plate (3) correctly on the at-
tachments
− Place the washers on the attachments and the protec-
tion for the inspection flange (4)
− Place the rear protection plate by closing the interlock-
ing flaps (L) without closing completely (leave one tooth
open)
− Apply the upper insulation (2) and the upper cover (5) (in
order to insert the cover, exert a light and homogeneous

When installing
systems requiring modernisation, always perform the following
checks.
− Make sure that the system is fitted with safety and con-
trol devices in accordance with applicable legislation and
standards
− Make sure that the central heating circuit has been
flushed out to remove all sludge and lime scale, and has
been vented and seal tested

− Make sure that a suitable water treatment system is in-
stalled if the quality of the supply/recirculation water so
demands (refer to the reference values listed in the table
alongside).
