Putting into operation: Open the regulator taps on the gas bottles (Fig. 132,1 and 4).
Use the knob (Fig. 132,6) on the switching regulator (Fig. 132,5) to select
the gas bottle which is to be the primary source of gas (primary bottle).
Always turn the knob as far as it will go.
When the knob is in the red area, the gas is taken primarily from the gas
bottle with the central regulator (Fig. 132,3).
When the knob is in the green area, the gas is taken primarily from the gas
bottle with the switching regulator (Fig. 132,5).
Switch on the Duomatic switching facility at the operating unit (Fig. 133).
To do so, set the rocker switch (Fig. 133,2) to winter operation "On and
heating" (Fig. 133,4) or to summer operation "On" (Fig. 133,6). Both gas
pressure regulators are now ventilated. The operating indicator
(Fig. 133,3) lights up.
Switching off:
Set the rocker switch (Fig. 133,2) to " " (Fig. 133,5). The operating indi-
cator (Fig. 133,3) goes out.
Close the regulator taps on the gas bottles (Fig. 132,1 and 4).

Changing gas bottles If an indicator lamp goes out during operation, this signifies that the corre-
sponding gas bottle is empty and must be replaced. The reserve bottle con-
tinues supplying the gas appliances with gas.
Changing gas bottles:
Close the regulator tap on the empty gas bottle.
Unscrew the regulator of the gas bottle.
Connect the full gas bottle to the regulator.
Open the regulator tap on the gas bottle.
Set the knob on the switching regulator with a half-turn, so that the newly
replaced gas bottle will serve as a reserve bottle.
When changing gas bottles, do not smoke or create any open fire.
Always mount the regulator in such a way that the protective cap faces
upwards.
