On the intercom keypad, enter 28 and then press “C”.
In the Vikey link, press “BUILDING ENTRANCE”. When “OPEN THE DOOR” appears, press “OK”. The entrance door will open in a few seconds.
Repeat the same procedure when you reach the inner iron gate.
After passing through the iron gate, the lift is directly ahead and the stairs are slightly farther along on your left. Go up to the third floor. Exiting the lift, turn left along the balcony, then left again onto the first landing. The apartment door is on your left, with the key box to the left of the door.

Take the keys and close the key box, then turn the dials so the combination is no longer visible.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Do not use too many electrical appliances at the same time (hair dryer, washing machine, microwave, etc.), as this may trip the power in the apartment.
If this happens, please proceed as follows:
- switch all the appliances you were using off
- find the electrical panel in the living room, behind the entrance door. Make sure that all switches are in the “up” position; if not, raise them all and the power should come back on.
If the power does not come back on:
- go to the ground floor and beside the steps find the garbage collection room. Enter the room. Go down the steps and along the corridor, turn left and look for the door on your left with a blue sign » Locale Contatori»
- find the meter labelled SACCARDI
- raise the switches and the apartment power should come back on
EQUIPMENTS
AIR CONDITIONING
The apartment has independent air conditioning units in the living room and bedroom. Each unit has its own remote control for switching it on or off and setting the desired temperature.
Please do not set the temperature below 21°C, as this may cause the system to shut down.
HEATING
In winter, the heating will already be on and correctly set. Please DO NOT TOUCH the thermostat in the living room below the intercom (see photo) unless absolutely necessary.
To adjust the heat released by the radiator, turn the valve located on its side.
BOILER AND WASHING MACHINE
VERY IMPORTANT: DO NOT TOUCH the two switches between the boiler and the washing machine. They must remain switched on at all times, with the switch set to “I”.
SHOWER – How it works
The upper control directs the water: turn it towards the wall on the left for the hand shower, or to the right for the overhead shower. Use the lower control to adjust the temperature.
