4.1

Preparing for initial startup

It is essential to perform the following checks before starting up
or testing the functioning of the storage cylinder. In particular,
check that:
− The supply cocks in the domestic water circuit are all open
The electrical and hydraulic connections to the paired storage
cylinder have been carried out correctly.
4.2

Putting into service

The first start up of the BOLLITORE 120 Lt
be carried out by the Technical Assistance Service
which the appliance will be able to operate automatically.
However, the user may need to automatically restart the BOL-
LITORE 120 Lt without involving the Technical Assistance Service;
for example after a long period of absence.
Before doing so, perform the following checks and operations:
− make sure that the fuel and water taps of the heating
system (not supplied) are open.
− make sure that the boiler connected to the storage cylin-
der is in service referring to the section "Commissioning
and maintenance" of the boiler's instructions
− start the domestic hot water function on the boiler (see
the specific chapter in the boiler's instruction booklet).
