The instruction manual is an integral part of the boiler. Once located, read it thoroughly and keep it safe. Keep the documentation envelope in a safe place. Any re- placement documents must be ordered from Riello S.p.A. who reserve the right to charge for the cost of the replace- ment.
INSTALLATION 2.3 Moving and removing the packing − Remove the polystyrene edge protectors (2) − Pull off the protective bag (3). If the installation involves a lot of moving (e.g. to a rooftop or cellar utility room) do not remove the protective wooden cage until the boiler is at its place of installation.
(Refer to the reference values on page 22); See Riello S.p.A.’s Catalogue The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage caused by incorrectly constructed flue systems.
