It is forbidden to use the flammable liquids for firing the VULCANUS boiler. • During the operation of VULCANUS boiler it is forbidden to overheat it in any way. • It is forbidden to put any objects made of flammable materials on the boiler and within a distance smaller than the safe distance from it.
• Having finished the heating season the boiler including the smoke flue must be thoroughly cleaned. The boiler must be kept clean and dry. • It is forbidden to interfere with construction and boiler electric installation. • In case the two-way safety device has responded to refill with water not conforming to ČSN 07 7401 it is necessary to treat the water in the system so that it again conforms to this standard.
