Assigning all the operations for the first ignition to a Hermann Authorized Service Center the particular and exclusive Hermann Conven- tional Warranty is activated. For further information consult the coupon which you can find in the boiler’s documents envelope.
MANUFACTURER DECLARATION Hermann boilers have obtained the CE certification (DM dtd. April 2 1998, Law 10/91, art. 32) and meet minimum efficiency requirements, both at normal and 30% load, provided by DPR 412/93 (according to Law 10/91, art. 4, sub-section 4). They are in conformity with following Directives: Directive on appliances burning gaseous fuels (90/396), Directive on electro-magnetic compatibility (CE 89/ 336), Efficiency Directive (CE 92/42), Low Voltage Directive (CE 73/23), and relevant modifications.
— In case of fault and/or bad operation of the appliance, disconnect it immediately and do not try to repair it by yourselves. Boiler servicing and repair must be carried out exclusively by [HERMANN Authorized Servicing Centres] [qualified technicians], which will use original spare parts. Strictly observe the above requirement, avoiding any risk of compromising the appliance safety.

Boiler location INSTALLATION ROOM When having an heat ouput lower than 35 kw (about 30000 Kcal/h), particular features for the installation room are not required. Shortly, all installation rules assuring a safe and regular gas boiler operation, must be strictly respected. Place here all necessary advices according to national rules about: - Installation room requirements...
Boiler hanging REMARK: A re-utilizable metal jig can be ordered separately, so as to facilitate connections and fixing points positioning (when the standard connection kit is used). If the standard connection kit is not used, refer to the “Dimensions” drawing (Technical Data section) for the position of the connections directly on the boiler.
Replacement of “Micra” boiler SUPERMICRA Boiler has been designed to easily replace MICRA Boiler keeping, according to the different cases, the position of the hydraulic connections and/or of the upper edge of the boiler. NOTE: If a MICRA 28 E/SE is replaced by a SUPERMICRA it is necessary to move the plug or the right hook of 50 mm leftwards (verify and check the measures with the jig or with the relative figure).
— Connect the safety evacuation ducts of the boiler to an evacuation funnel. If safety valves are not connected to an evacuation device, their intervention could flood the room. Hermann can- not be held responsible for any damage arising from that situation.
Remark: HERMANN Ltd. declines any responsibility for damages to persons, animals or things caused by the non-connection of the boiler earthing and by failure to comply with the rules.

ATTENTION: the operations described below must be carried out only by qualified personnel [authorized by HERMANN]. When regulation/measuring is over, remember to tighten pressure tapping point screws and ALWAYS check for gas leaks! Before boiler ignition, verify that pump is not blocked due to its inactivity: unscrew the plug located in the middle of the cap to gain access to the rotor shaft, and turn it manually using a screwdriver or another suitable tool.
GAS VALVE Gas valve pressure regulation (MAX-MIN) — Loosen (2-3 turns) the screw of pressure tapping point for gas outlet [1] of the gas valve and insert the manometer sensor. In the “SE” models unthread from the “Vent” [3] the silicon tube coming from the sealed chamber;...
Slow opening regulation To adjust the slow opening, proceed as follows: — switch off the boiler; — release the screws [1] (see figure) and remove the back closing of the control panel; REMARK: you will have 8 seconds for the regulation of the slow opening pressure, and after these 8 seconds the pressure of the burner increases to the highest value.

Changing Gas type ATTENTION: the operations described below must be carried out only by qualified personnel [authorized from HERMANN Ltd]. For gas conversion, use the nozzles supplied by boiler manufacturer only. Using LPG, it is absolutely necessary to install a pressure reducer upstream the boiler.
Combustion check The boiler has a “CHIMNEYSWEEPER” function which draws the ignition of the burner to the highest power (not modulated) without working on the room thermostat or on the flow of hot water. — Arrange the instruments for the combustion check; —...
Electronical regulation POSSIBLE REGULATIONS ON THE MAIN P.C.B. The SUPERMICRA models are equipped with a Microprocessor P.C.B., with an array of 6 microswitches (SW3 / 1÷6) which allow to make personalizing actions for the boiler’s functioning. The firm arrangements are underlined. Remark: on some cases there may be 8 microswithes instead of 6 (SW3 / 1÷8).
— Clean casing with soapy water only. Do not clean casing, other painted or plastic surfaces with thinner. — In any case of parts replacement, it is mandatory to use HERMANN original spare parts. HERMANN declines any responsibility in case of non-original spare parts utilization.

Warnings for first starting up The first starting up must be done by a professionally qualified staff (for example the SERVICE CENTERS authorized by HERMANN). Gas conversion from a specific gas (natural gas or LPG) to another gas, can be made also when the gas boiler is already installed, but only by a qualified technician.
APPLIANCE BOOKLET OR CENTRAL PLANT BOOKLET All appliances, even those installed before August 1 , 1994, must have an appliance booklet (for outputs less or equal 35 kW) or a central plant booklet (for outputs more than 35 kW). All ordinary and special servicing operations and combustion checkings must be written on the booklet, together with the name of the person responsible for servicing.
Boiler controls To have the access to the boiler controls it is sufficient to push on the lower part of the panel, as shown in the figure. In addition to the controls in the front panel, we remind you that the boiler must be equipped, during the installation process, with an external general switch which totally disconnects the boiler from the electrical supply.

SUMMER FUNCTIONING Turn the selector [2] bringing it in the SUMMER position Regulate the DHW Thermostat [4] in the position respective to the desired domestic hot water temperature. The burner will turn on automatically when hot water is required. In case of not ignition, check that the red lamp [7] is not on: if it’s on, turn the selector [2] in the central Off/ Unlock Position, wait until the red lamp [7] turns off, and then bring it again in the SUMMER...
Working and warning indicators GREEN FUNCTIONING LAMP [1] The green lamp can be off, flashing (slowly or rapidly) or on. OFF: the boiler is electrically disconnected. In these conditions the boiler obviously doesn’t work. The Automatic Anti Freezing and Anti Blocking functions can’t be activated (useful during long period of inactivity).

Also the opening of the manual venting taps of radiators (intentional or unintentional) makes the pressure decrease. Check that this doesn’t happen. — the boiler has an overheating and the Safety Thermostat has triggered; Turn the SUMMER/WINTER Selector in the central Unlock Position until the red lamp turns off (or eventually for a longer period to make the boiler cool), then bring again the selector in the desired position (Summer...
• If in the room where the boiler is installed there are mantelpieces, stoves, coal stoves or similar, fans for the Air Outlet, such as wall fans, aspiring cowls for cooking boards with outlet pipe, let the technician check that the inlet is correctly OVERSIZED or that there are the ADDITIONAL Inlets as prescribed by the laws in force, because, otherwise, these devices interfere with the evacuation of the Boiler’s Flue.
For any intervention on the electrical, hydraulic or gas circuit exclusively call a qualified technician. The gas boilers must be fitted with original accessories only. HERMANN Ltd. is not responsible for damages caused by the incorrect, wrong or unreasonable use of non-original materials. User instructions...
