Safety
(continued)
H For safe operation
We recommend that you frequently:
- Check for debris which could obstruct
the flow of flue gases. The vent or
chimney must not be blocked. A
blocked or partially blocked vent or
chimney can cause flue gases to leak
into the structure. Flue gases leaking
into the house can cause injury or
death. Blocked or partially blocked
chimneys must have the blockage
removed by a qualified heating
contractor.
- Check pressure gage for correct
system (water) pressure. Check for
water on the floor from the discharge
pipe of the pressure relief valve or any
other pipe, pipe joint, valve or air vent.
- Check for moisture, water, or
appearance of rust on the flue gas
pipes, their joints as well as vent
dampers, or side wall vent terminals (if
so equipped).
- Ensure that nothing is obstructing the
flow of combustion and ventilation air
and no chemicals, garbage, gasoline,
combustible materials, flammable
vapors and liquids are stored (not even
temporarily) in the vicinity of the
boiler.
- Do not allow unsupervised children
near the boiler.
Service/inspection of the boiler and the
system is recommended once a year.
Maintenance, service and cleaning are
specified in the Installation Instructions.
Before the heating season begins, the
boiler with its burners should be
serviced by a qualified heating
contractor. Service contracts may be
established through gas suppliers or
other licensed contractors in your area.

WARNING
There are no user serviceable parts on
the boiler, burners or control. Failure to
heed this warning can cause property
damage, severe personal injury, or loss
of life.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment,
service, or maintenance can cause flue
products to flow into living space. Flue
products contain poisonous carbon
monoxide gas which can cause nausea
or asphyxiation resulting in severe
personal injury or loss of life.
CAUTION
Should overheating occur or the gas
supply fail to shut off, do not
disconnect the electrical supply to the
pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply
at a location external to the appliance.
WARNING
The operator/ultimate owner is required
to have the heating boiler, burners, and
controls checked, as a minimum once
per year, by the original installer or by a
competent heating contractor familiar
with the equipment. Defects must be
corrected immediately.
IMPORTANT
This product comes with several safety
instruction labels attached.
Do not remove!
Contact Viessmann immediately if
replacement labels are required.
Do not use this boiler if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified
heating contractor to inspect the boiler
and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has
been under water.
Do not store chemicals containing chlorine
or other corrosive materials near the
boiler, such as bleach, cleaning solvents,
detergents, acids, hair spray, spray cans,
paint thinners, paint, or water softener
salt.
