1.1 Introduction Dear Customer, Thank you for choosing Maxima 35 S, a FERROLI wall-mounted boiler of the latest generation, featuring advanced design and cutting-edge technology. Maxima 35 S is a high-efficiency condensing pre-mix appliance for heating with extremely low emissions, running on natural gas or LPG.
Maxima 35 S 1.2 Control panel 15 13 fig. 1 4 - Heating temperature adjustment control To increase the heating temperature, turn the knob clockwise; anticlockwise to decrease it. The adjustment range goes from 20 to 90°C (see page 7).

Maxima 35 S 13 - Fan symbol This appears when there is a call for heating, and the fan is operating. 15 - Ignition symbol The ignition symbol appears during the ignition phase. 16 - Flame symbol Indicates the burner is on, the small rising bars to the right indicate the burner output 1=low, 5=high.
For other faults, refer to page 27 section 3.4 “Troubleshooting.” Before calling the Ferroli service centre, check that the problem is not due to an installation error or a problem with the gas/electricity or low water pressure in the system.
Maxima 35 S 2. INSTALLATION 2.1 General Instructions This device must only be used for the purpose for which it is specially designed. This unit is designed to heat water to a temperature below boiling point and must be connected to a hea- ting system and/or a water supply system for domestic use, compatible with its performance, characteristics and its heating capacity.
Maxima 35 S 2.2 Boiler location The unit’s combustion circuit is sealed off from the installation room. The installation room must be sufficiently well ventilated to prevent any dangerous conditions from forming in the event of even slight gas leakage. This safety standard is required by the EEC Directive no. 90/396 for all gas units, including those with a so-called sealed chamber.
Maxima 35 S 2.3 Boiler water connections The heating capacity of the unit should be previously established by calculating the building’s heat requirement according to current regulations. For good operation and long life of the boiler, the plum- bing system must be well proportioned and always complete with all those accessories that guarantee regular operation and running, room thermostat, trv’s and automatic bypass etc.
