    First, it should be ensured that there is sufficient combustion air in the room where the boiler is located. Occasional inspection is recommended to ensure that combustion air is properly supplied to the biofuel combustion chamber. The boiler operates on 230 V – 50 Hz. Ensure that the electric cable is not entangled under the boiler, that it is away from hot places and that it cannot come in contact with any sharp edge that could cut it.

    function. − Do not make any modifications for whatever reason except those allowed and explained by the manufacturer. − Always use original spare parts. Never allow the components to completely wear out before you replace them. Replacing a worn out part i.e. component of the boiler before it breaks down contributes to the prevention of injuries caused by an accident due to a sudden breakdown i.e.
