Necessary preparations prior to
initial start-up
(as well as for successive start-ups)
1. 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.
If pressure relief valve is discharging,
contact contractor to locate source of
problem and take corrective measures.
Never cap or plug end of pressure relief
valve discharge pipe.
Ensure correct system (water) pressure.
See pressure gage. If the system
pressure is below 10 psig, please call
your heating contractor.
2. Ensure fresh combustion air supply
vents to boiler room are open and
unobstructed.
Nothing must obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
3. Open main gas supply valve.
4. Activate the system. Ensure power
supply is activated and then activate
system power switch " ".
Your heating system is now ready for
operation.
Extended shut-downs
1. Close main gas supply valve.
2. Deactivate system power switch.
3. Deactivate main power supply to boiler
and control.
We recommend that you contact your
heating contractor prior to and after an
extended shut-down period. In this
manner, the appropriate precautions, i.e.
system freeze-up protection or heat
exchanger maintenance, can be taken.
Start-up
Refer to "Lighting and Operating
Instructions" on following page. The boiler
control regulates operation of the heating
system automatically in conjunction with
the indoor/outdoor control and any
programmed settings (if applicable).
Changes to the settings or programming
can be made according to separate
instructions provided with the boiler
control.
For optimum operation
H Keep the boiler and the boiler room
clean and free of dust and dirt.
H Ensure proper system pressure by
occasionally checking pressure gage.
H Allow a qualified heating contractor to
regularly service and maintain your
heating system.
Neglected maintenance impacts on
product warranty; regular cleaning and
maintenance ensures clean,
environmentally friendly and efficient
operation.
Viessmann recommends a maintenance
contract with a qualified heating
contractor.
If you require assistance finding a
qualified heating contractor, contact
Viessmann.
