Maintenance Pre-Service Check List Date Call up the last fault stored by the Bosch Heatronic, Service Function .0, (see page 35). Check ionisation current, Service Function 3.3, (see page 35). Perform visual check of air/flue duct.Visual check of diaphragm for soiling and splits (see page 37).
Maintenance B Remove the fan and the burner as described in the Description of servicing operations text headed “Burner” (see page 36). The combustion performance must be checked before and after any servicing work on the combustion and burner components. Refer to section 7.1. Check “Last fault stored”: B Select Service Function .0 (see page 28 “Selecting service function”).
