  The plug on the venturi has latching lugs with 
which it engages in the slot. You have to release 
the latching lug by pushing it in to pull off the 
plug.
 > Remove the plug from the sensor of the venturi 
(1,¬fig.14.8).
 > Unscrew the two cap nuts at the top (5, ¬fig.14.8) and 
bottom (4, ¬fig.14.8) of the gas valve. Counterhold at 
opposite side of gas valve when unscrewing, or unscrew 
both cap nuts at the same time.
 > Unscrew the fixing screw of the gas valve (3, ¬fig.14.8) 
out of the bracket.

  Since the fixing screw is difficult to access 
beneath the retaining plate, alternatively, you 
can remove the entire fan assembly 
(¬section14.3).
 > Remove the gas valve from the bracket.
 > Refit the new gas valve in the reverse order. Use new 
seals.
 > When the cap nuts are being screwed to the gas valve, 
counterhold at the opposite side of the gas valve or 
tighten both cap nuts simultaneously (¬fig.14.6). 
 > After installing the new gas valve, perform a gas family 
check (¬section12.1.5) and a gas ratio setting 
(¬section10.11).

14.9 Replacing the venturi including the mass flow sensor
 > Remove the air intake pipe (¬section12.4.1).
 > Remove the plug from the sensor of the venturi 
(1, ¬fig.14.9).
 > Unscrew the cap nut (3 ¬fig.14.9) of the gas connecting 
pipe (2 ¬fig.14.9) from the gas valve.
 > Remove the venturi including the gas supply pipe from 
the fan by turning the bayonet fitting on the venturi anti-
clockwise as far as it goes and removing it from the fan.

14.10 Removing the gas connecting pipe
 > Remove the gas connecting pipe (1, ¬fig.14.10) from the 
venturi (2 ¬fig.14.10) by detaching the clamp 
(3, ¬fig.14.10) and pulling out the gas connecting pipe 
vertically. Dispose of the seal (6, ¬fig.14.10).
 > Pull off the gas restrictor (5, ¬fig.14.10) in a straight 
direction, and dispose of it. 
 > Check whether the venturi is free of residue at the gas 
inlet side.

 Danger!
Risk of poisoning due to increased CO 
levels!
Using the wrong gas restrictor size can 
cause higher CO levels. 
 > When replacing the venturi, ensure that 
you use the correct gas restrictor (colour 
coding and position of pins on the under-
side of the gas restrictor).
 > Insert the gas restrictor for the gas group in question 
into the new venturi.
Ensure that the colour of the gas restrictor corresponds 
with the colour of the coding resistor on the PCB in the 
electronics box.
When inserting the gas restrictor, ensure that the gas 
restrictor is correctly aligned using the specified position 
marks on the top of the venturi and also the positioning 
pins (4) on the bottom of the gas restrictor.
