WARNING!
During this procedure, compare CO (carbon monoxide) readings with the value given in
Table 8-1. If this is higher, STOP the boiler and call the Factory service department (see
phone number on the last cover page). Failure to comply with this requirement could result in
severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
