The instruction manual is an integral part of the ap- pliance; therefore, it should be read and stored care- fully. Keep the documentation envelope in a safe place. Any replacement documents must be ordered from Beretta who reserve the right to charge for the cost of the replacement.
The minimum surface of ventilation openings is 3,000 cm 2.3 Installation premises for gas fuel heating systems. The thermal module POWER MAX can be installed in rooms that are permanently ventilated and equipped with suitably sized ventilation openings in line with Technical Standards 2.4 Installation in older systems and and Regulations applicable to the installation site.
2.5 Moving and removing the packing Do not remove the cardboard packaging until your reach the installation location. Before handling the appliance and removing the packaging, wear PPE and use tools suitable for the appliance's size and weight. This step must be carried out by several individuals equipped with suitable means with respect to the ap- pliance's size.
