SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1
GENERAL
To ensure the continued safe and efficient
operation of the appliance, it is recommended that
it is checked and serviced at regular intervals. To
ensure correct and safe operation of the appliance,
it is essential that any worn or failed component
be replaced only with a genuine Vokera spare
part. It should be remembered that although
certain generic components may look similar, they
will be specific to an individual appliance or
product range. Use of non-genuine Vokera spare
parts could invalidate your warranty and may pose
a potential safety hazard. The frequency of
ser vicing will depend upon the par ticular
installation conditions, but in general, once per
year should be sufficient. It is the law that any
servicing work is carried out by competent person
such as a Vokera engineer, an approved service
agent, British Gas,
CORGI registered personnel or other suitably
qualified personnel.
