3.1 Central Heating System Pressure
1. The normal operating water pressure is between 1
and 2.5 bar (Fig. 1). If the pressure exceeds 3 bar the
safety pressure valve will operate and a fault is indicated.
Contact your installer.
2. It may be necessary to repressurise the system
occasionally (Fig. 2). A filling device (the filling loop) will
be fitted on the system. This will be on the boiler itself,
or on pipework near to the boiler.
3. If you are unsure of its position, or cannot identify it,
consult the installer who fitted the boiler.
4. The filling loop consists of two taps and a separate
copper pipe with connection fittings.
5. Only when repressurising should the copper pipe be
connected between the two taps. Ensure that the nuts
on the pipe ends are tightened onto the taps.
6. Fully open one of the taps first, and then while
watching the pressure gauge, carefully open the second
tap.
7. When the needle on the gauge is indicating 1 or more
turn both taps off.
8. Disconnect the copper pipe from the taps (a small
amount of water may be present) and remove it. Keep
the pipe in a safe place for future use.

1. This appliance must have been installed in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions and the regulations
in force.
2. Any modification that may interfere with the normal
operation of the appliance without express written
permission from the manufacturer or his agent could
invalidate the appliance warranty. In GB this could also
infringe the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations.
3. Your boiler must not be operated without the casing
correctly fitted.
4. Do not interfere with any sealed components on this
boiler.
5. Take note of any warning labels on your boiler.
6. Your boiler should have the following minimum
clearances for Safety and Maintenance
(Figs. 4 & 5):-
Top - 200mm
Bottom - 200mm
Left side - 5mm
Right Side - 5mm
Front - 5mm (In Operation)
- 450mm (For Servicing)
7. If your boiler is installed in a compartment, do not use
it for storage purposes. Do not obstruct any purpose
provided ventilation openings.
8. Flammable materials must not be stored in close
proximity to your boiler.
9. Avoid skin contact when your boiler is in operation, as
some surfaces may get hot e.g. pipework.
10. Ensure that the flue terminal, outside the house,
does not become damaged or obstructed, particularly
by foliage.
11. It is important that the condensate drain system is
not blocked, modified or damaged in any way as this
would affect the operation of your boiler. Your installer
should have insulated any exposed pipework.

5.0 Care of the Boiler
8© Baxi Heating UK Ltd 2009
5.1 Cleaning the Outer case
The painted panels should be wiped with a damp cloth and
then dried completely. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE
CLEANING AGENTS.
5.2 Protection & Precaution
1. The boiler incorporates an integral frost protection feature
that will operate in both modes. If the boiler temperature falls
below 5° C, then the boiler will operate until the water
temperature has been raised.
2. If a system frost thermostat has been fitted (your installer
will be able to advise you), then to operate correctly and
protect your system, the gas and electricity must be left on and
the appliance set in the central heating mode.
3. The boiler incorporates an integral pump protection feature
which continually monitors the time since the pump last
operated. To prevent seizure, the pump will operate for
approximately 1 minute if it has not run in the last 24 hours.
5.3 Fault Indication
1. If a fault occurs on the boiler an error code may be shown
on the facia display.
2. The codes are either two or three digit, preceded by the
letter 'E'. For example, code E133 will be displayed by 'E1'
alternating with '33'. E50 is shown as 'E' then '50'.
3. E20, E28, E50, E125 & E160 indicate faulty components.
You should make a note of the displayed error code and
contact your installer or service engineer.
4. If E110 or E130 is displayed overheat of the primary water
or flue system has occurred. Turn the selector switch to the
reset position and hold for at least 5 seconds. If the boiler
does not relight, or the code is displayed regularly contact your
installer or service engineer.
5. E119 is displayed when the primary water pressure is less
than 0.5 bar. After repressurising the system the boiler should
operate. Your installer will be able to advise you about the
method of repressurising. See page 6 for further details.
6. E133 indicates that the gas supply has been interrupted,
ignition has failed or the flame has not been detected. Ensure
that the gas supply has not been turned off, and turn the
selector switch to the reset position and hold for at least 5
seconds. If the boiler does not relight, or the code is displayed
regularly contact your installer or service engineer.

7.0 Setting the Timer
7.1 Setting the Timer
The Electro-Mechanical Timer allows the central heating
system to be set every 15 minutes.
Using the three position switch the timer will allow either
constant operation, timed operation or central heating off.
Move the switch button by sliding to the desired position.
Three position switch (Fig. 7)
Constant (Top position): The heating will be on
constantly irrespective of the position of the tappets.The
heating will be controlled by the main thermostat on the
appliance and/or any external controls.
Timed (Central position): The heating will operate
according to the position of the tappets and be controlled as
above.
0Off (Bottom position): No central heating.
Domestic hot water will operate on demand.
To set the time of day
Turn the timer outer bezel clockwise, to align the pointer with
the correct time to the nearest 15 minutes
ensuring that A.M./P.M. is considered. Do not at any time
attempt to turn the bezel anti-clockwise.
To set the timed heating program
Decide which times of the day the central heating is required.
The heating will operate when the white tappets are set to
the outer edge of the bezel.
To ensure the heating stays OFF set the required tappets
inwards towards the centre of the bezel.
Each tappet represents 15 minutes.
For example: If the heating is not required between
10 A.M. and 11 A.M. the four tappets anticlockwise from the
10 A.M. will be set inwards (Fig. 8).
