INSTALLAZIONE INSTALLATION 4. INSTALLATION 4.1 HEATER/BOILER LOCATION CAUTION: Use trolleys to move the appliance and always keep it in a vertical position. To unpack it, after having removed the wooden crate, remove the casing (in the reverse order than described in par.
INSTALLAZIONE INSTALLATION 4.2.1 HOW TO MOUNT THE H2O HEATER CASING Once the heater has been positioned and levelled by raising or lowering the mounting feet, and connected to the heating system and the electrical system (see par. 4.5, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11), the next step is to mount the casing as illustrated in the figure below: - Firstly mount the 2 side panels by centring the bottom folds on the holes of the base and tightening the 2 top screws with a screwdriver.
INSTALLATION 4.2.3 HOW TO INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL COMPACT BOILER TANK (OPTIONAL) To increase the boilerʼs autonomy of operation it is possible to install one or two additional tanks at the sides of the boiler. Each tank can hold up to 100 Kg of pellets. Firstly unpack the tank then assemble it: - Fasten the 4 telescopic legs (A) using the screws provided (screws TSP+ 8x50).
INSTALLATION 4.2.2 HOW TO FIT THE ADDITIONAL TANK (OPTIONAL) WITH THE COMPACT BOILER After having mounted the additional tank assemble the tank and boiler: - Remove the octagonal portion of precut sheet metal from the side (F) of the boiler . - Remove the cap (I) from the tank by undoing the 4 screws.

INSTALLATION 1 - Appliance start up and shut down button. Press this button to position the appliance (6) on START or OFF. When it is pressed repeatedly up to 5 LEDs (4) come on and the indicator A (4; automatic) is activated. The following texts could appear on the display: “...
INSTALLATION 4.3.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE AUTOMATIC MODE CYCLE When the letter A appears on the display it indicates that the Automatic cycle has been selected. In the Automatic cycle the appliance expresses its maximum operating flexibility by optimizing the fuel consumption. If, for example, the temperature is set (7) at 70 °C the five speed ratios will be automatically distributed between 61 and 70°C so that when the temperature reaches 70°C the appliance will be running at the minimum power.
INSTALLATION 4.4 CONTROL, ADJUSTMENT AND PROGRAMMING FUNCTIONS OF THE H 0/COMPACT CONTROL PANEL 4.4.1 SETTING THE OPERATING PROGRAMS P1 AND P2 Your appliance is provided with an excellent operating program to enhance combustion efficiency. The particular configuration of the burner keeps the area where the pellets drop and burn clean for many hours. However, if you wish to keep the burner even cleaner simply select the P2 operating cycle which emits a larger quantity of air into the brazier.
INSTALLATION Press the button to set the current hour (e.g. 10). Then press the button to confirm. The following graphic image will appear on the display: Press the button to set the minutes (e.g. 10:35). Then press the button to confirm and quit the current time and day setting menu.
INSTALLATION 4.4.4 WEEKLY PROGRAMMING The H20 appliance and Compact boiler can be programmed for a week with up to 2 on-off cycles for each day from Monday to Sunday. When the appliance is running in programmed mode ( symbol active) the appliance self-adjusts its combustion power according to the automatic cycle (see par.

INSTALLATION It is furthermore necessary to place the room temperature thermostat at a maximum of 10 metres from the appliance as if the distance is too great and there are too many walls located between the room temperature thermostat and the appliance, this can affect the functioning of the thermostat. In order for the room temperature thermostat to function correctly it is important for the “code system”...

USE OF THE HEATER/BOILER 5. USE OF THE HEATER/BOILER 5.1 SWITCHING ON THE H 0 HEATER/COMPACT BOILER Before using the appliance check that all the movable parts are in place; also remove any labels and stickers from the glass to avoid having permanent traces remain on the surfaces. Ensure that the electrical and hydraulic connections have been made perfectly.
USE OF THE HEATER/BOILER 5.2 ADJUSTING THE COMBUSTION OF THE H2O HEATER/ COMPACT BOILER The thermal value is adjusted by means of the 2 buttons “A” and “B” indicated in the figure in the previous paragraph. 5.2.1 Manual adjustment of the combustion (see par. 4.3.2) 5.2.2 Automatic adjustment of the combustion (see par.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE 7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE 7.1 FOREWORD Before beginning any operation ensure that the appliance is in the “OFF” mode, by disconnecting the electrical power plug. Your appliance does not require any special maintenance; keep to the simple, basic but frequent general control and cleaning operations.

SMOKE VENT AND COMBUSTION AIR SUCTION • Air used for combustion is sucked in through a tube installed at the back of the appliance. It has a diameter of 80 mm. • The air flow can also be obtained from an adjacent room as long as: - the adjacent room is equipped with direct ventilation in compliance with the points described above;...
SMOKE VENT AND COMBUSTION AIR SUCTION 8.2 SMOKE OUTLET The smoke outlet shown in the following figures is the best solution to ensure the discharge of smoke even when the fan is not operational, such as for example if there is an electrical power failure. A minimum drop of 1.5 metres is required between the T terminal on the outside of the building and the outlet at the back of the appliance, to ensure that residual combustion smoke is discharged in the case described above (Otherwise the residues would stagnate inside the firebox and be discharged out to the free atmosphere).
INFORMATION FOR THE SKILLED TECHNICIAN 9. INFORMATION FOR THE SKILLED TECHNICIAN 9.1 MAIN COMPONENTS AND THEIR OPERATION SAFETY THERMOSTAT WITH MANUAL RESET: if the temperature exceeds 100°C the pellet feed screw is shut off. A red light at the back of the appliance comes on. Once the reasons for the appliance exceeding the upper temperature limit have been discovered and solved the heater can be reactivated by unscrewing the plastic cover of the thermostat installed on the back and pressing the button (the temperature of the boiler must be below 73°C).
