DANGER
Although the fluid in the cooling circuit is environmentally-friendly, it must not be
released into the atmosphere.
Forms of recovery must be arranged.

10.1. General Inspection

During the equipment's useful life, the owner should carry out a general inspection of the equipment, ac-
cording to the place where the equipment is set up:
• External cleaning of equipment and surrounding areas with a wet cloth
• Visual inspection of the whole equipment, with the purpose of detecting possible leaks and damaged
devices

10.2. Empty the Storage Water Heater

Remember that the water in the storage water heater is at a high temperature, so
there is an associated risk of burns.
Before emptying the storage water heater, allow the water temperature to drop to a
level that avoids burns.
WARNING
After ensuring the water temperature is at a safe level that will avoid burns, follow this procedure:
• Unplug the system from the power supply
• Shut off the water supply valve and open a hot water tap
• Open the system discharge valve

10.3. Magnesium Anode

This equipment has a magnesium anode that together with the building material of the tank will provide an
effective protection against corrosion.
The internal shielding of the tank will ensure an effective protection against corrosion contributing to a
water quality within the parameters considered normal. However, the characteristics of the water change
according to the installation. (See Chapter 4.4 and warranty)
In your living area, the quality of the water can be aggressive to your equipment. So together with the
equipment there is a magnesium anode that wears over time, thus protecting your equipment.
The wear of the anode always depends on the characteristics of the water you use. Thus, checking the
condition of the anode is very important, particularly in the first years of the installation:
To check the condition of your anode, follow these steps:
• Unplug the appliance from the power supply
• Shut off water supply
• Remove pressure (for example, open a hot water tap)
• Unscrew the anode with a suitable tool
• Check the level of wear of the anode and replace it, if necessary
• If the diameter of the anode is less than 15mm, it will need to be replaced
Before undertaking any maintenance operation on the equipment, make sure it
is not plugged to the power supply!
Wait until the fan comes to a complete stop.
Handling of the fluid in the equipment must be carried out ONLY by a qualified
technician.
