Commissioning the system
Operating and service instruc-
tions for the control unit and the
burner
01. Check that the internal pipes are
fully pushed into the hot gas flues
(see chapter "Inserting the internal
pipes"); open the boiler door for
this.
02. Check that the installation room
vent is open.
03. Fill the heating system with water
and vent the system.
Permissible operating pressure:
4 bar
04. Record the fill volume and water
hardness (see chapter "Checking
the water quality").
!Please note
Scaling may result if the sys-
tem is not operated with fully
softened heating water.
Observe the instructions in
chapter "Water quality
requirements".
05. Check the system pressure.
06. Check the oil level or the gas supply
pressure.
07. Open the flue gas damper (if instal-
led).
08. Check that the cleaning aperture on
the flue outlet is closed.
09. Open the shut-off valves in the oil or
gas line.
10. Switch ON the mains isolator, the
switch for the heating circuit pump
and the burner ON/OFF switch in
this order (observe the burner man-
ufacturer's instructions).
11. When heating the system from cold
(also when restarting after mainte-
nance and cleaning work), prevent
any heat supply to the heat consum-
ers in order to clear the dew point
range as quickly as possible.
!Please note
During boiler heat-up,
unpleasant fumes and
odours can result from gases
being expelled from the ther-
mal insulation, the heating
block and the paint.
Vent the room during com-
missioning.
12. After the flow temperature has been
reached, switch ON the heat con-
sumers in sequence and change the
burner over to automatic mode.
!Please note
When testing the flue gas for
CO, internal gases being
expelled from the heating
block can cause higher val-
ues.
Continue to operate the
boiler until a decline can be
clearly recognised.

13. Check all gaskets and plugs, and
retighten if necessary.
14. Check the boiler door and cleaning
cover after approx. 50 hours run and
retighten all screws.
Danger
Opening the connections on the
heating water side whilst the
boiler is under pressure can
result in injuries.
First depressurise the boiler.
Drain the boiler with a suction
pump only when the air vent
valve has been opened.
Closing the Vitoair draught stabiliser (if installed)
1. Start the burner. 2. With the pre-purge running, shut
down the system. The control disk will
then be closed.
Opening the boiler door and cleaning cover
Note
On systems with gas burners, remove
the gas supply pipe.
