3.1
Vaillant warranty
Vaillant provide a full parts and labour warranty for this
appliance.
The appliance must be installed by a suitably competent
person in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation
and Use) Regulations 1998, and the manufacturer's
instructions. In the UK 'CORGI' registered installers
undertake the work in compliance with safe and satisfac-
tory standards.
All unvented domestic hot water cylinders must be
installed by a competent person to the prevailing build-
ing regulations at the time of installation (G3).
Terms and conditions apply to the warranty, details of
which can be found on the warranty registration card
included with this appliance.
Failure to install and commission this appliance in com-
pliance with the manufacturer's instructions may invali-
date the warranty (this does not affect the customer's
statutory rights).
3.2
Intended use
The ecoLEVEL condensate pump may only be used in
connection Vaillant system components, in which con-
densate accumulates as a byproduct. This includes all
Vaillant condensing gas heating appliances.
The pump, and all of its components, are designed for
the removal of condensate from condensing boilers. The
intake of rainwater into the system through the exhaust
has been taken into consideration. This also applies for
the permissible amount, as well as the composition and
quantity of solid particles in the condensate.
This unit is not intended to be used by persons (includ-
ing children) with impaired physical, sensory or mental
faculties or who are lacking experience and/or knowl-
edge, unless they are supervised by a person who is
responsible for their safety or have been instructed by
him in the use of the unit. Children must be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the unit.
The condensate pump is not suitable for the extraction
of other liquids or solid media. In particular, any type of
waste water, chemicals, or oil-bearing emulsions may not
be fed into the condensate pump.
Any use other than those which are outlined here, espe-
cially the extraction of non-approved media, is consid-
ered improper. The manufacturer or supplier is not liable
for any damage resulting from improper use. The user
alone bears any risk.
Intended use includes the observance of operating,
installation, and maintenance manuals.
Caution!
Any improper use is forbidden.

Operation and maintenance
4.1
General information
The ecoLEVEL condensate pump is used for the extrac-
tion of condensate which accumulates in condensing
boilers. The condensate generated by boiler flows
through a feed hose and into the pump's reservoir.
The condensate level is constantly monitored, and when
it reaches maximum capacity the pump switches on
automatically and pumps the condensate out through a
discharge hose.
The ecoLEVEL condensate pump is equipped with an
overflow safety switch. If there is a malfunction, the
safety switch (when properly connected) automatically
switches off the boiler to prevent condensate from over-
flowing.
Note!
Once the pump has been installed and put into
service, operation is self-regulating and does
not require further attendance.
4.2
Display of operating status
On the front edge of the housing there are two integrat-
ed diodes which indicate the operating status of the
ecoLEVEL condensate pump.
When the pump is provided with a 230 V power supply,
the green LED is illuminated. This indicates that the
pump is ready for operation.
The red LED indicates that the condensate level has
exceeded the highest permissible limit, and that the
overflow safety switch has been activated.
If the required connection to the boiler has been
installed, it will be switched off in order to prevent fur-
ther accumulation of condensate.
