(fig. 11):
– switch on the main switch (1) and
verify that the green LED (3) turns
on to confirm the presence of volta-
ge. The burner will start;
– turn the boiler stat knob (5) to the
desidered setting.
For best results, set the boiler stat
knob to a temperature no lower
than 60°C to prevent the formation
of condensate.
The set temperature value can be
checked on the thermometer (4).
3.2.2 Safety stat
The safety stat with automatic reset
calibration set at 100°C (2 fig. 11)
trips, immediately turning off the bur-
ner when t he boiler accident all y
overheats.
To restore normal operations, wait
until the temperature drops below the
thermostat calibration setting.
