1.4.1 Tips regarding the installation room
RISK OF FATAL INJURY
through poisoning.
An insufficient supply of air can result in the
escape of dangerous flue gas.
BEnsure that ventilation or extract air
apertures are not reduced or closed.
BKeep the boiler room doors closed.
BProtect the boiler room and particularly
the combustion air inlet against ingress
of small animals, e.g. through grilles.
BThe boiler must not be operated until
the obstruction has been removed.
RISK OF FIRE
through flammable materials or liquids.
BEnsure that there are no flammable ma-
terials or liquids in the immediate vicini-
ty of the boiler.

2 Product description
This boiler is a condensing boiler for oil combustion with
modulating boiler water temperature control.
The boiler comprises:
• Control unit
• Boiler casing
• Boiler block with thermal insulation
• Burner
• Heat exchanger system
The control unit monitors and controls all electrical boiler
components.
The boiler shell prevents energy losses and acts as a si-
lencer.
The boiler block transfers the heat generated by the bur-
ner to the heating water. The thermal insulation prevents
heat losses.

3 Operating the heating system
3.1 Switching on the heating system
Before switching the system on, check that
• the operating pressure is high enough,
• the fuel supply is open at the main shut-off valve and
• the heating system emergency stop switch is swit-
ched on.
3.1.1 Starting the heating system via the control
unit and programming unit
BSet both rotary selectors on the control unit to "AUT"
(automatic mode). The programming unit takes con-
trol of the panel in this setting.
BSwitch the ON/OFF switch ON (position "I"). The con-
trol unit checks the current system status, and the
burner starts, if appropriate.
If the boiler recognises a heat demand, the start pro-
gram commences and approx. 30 seconds later the bur-
ner fires up. A heat demand is triggered if the heating or
the DHW temperatures fall below their respective set va-
lues. The LED below the relevant rotary selector illumi-
nates.

BCheck and make sure that the following settings on
programming unit RC30/RC35 are set:
• Automatic operating mode
• Required room temperature
• Required DHW temperature
• Required heating program
3.2 Shutting down the heating system
BSwitch the ON/OFF switch on the control unit OFF
(position "0"). This switches off the boiler and all its
components (such as the burner).
BClose the main fuel shut-off valve.
3.3 In an emergency
In the event of an emergency, e.g. a fire, proceed as fol-
lows:
BNever risk your own life. Your own safety is para-
mount.
BClose the main fuel shut-off valve.
BIsolate the heating system from the mains power
supply via the heating system emergency stop switch
or the corresponding domestic fuse.

from frost.
When the heating system is switched off, it
can freeze up if there is a frost.
BLeave the heating system constantly
switched ON if possible.
BProtect your heating system against
frost by draining the pipework for cen-
tral heating and DHW at the lowest pos-
sible point.
BDrain the heat exchanger.

3.4 Checking the operating pressure and possibly topping-up
the heating water and venting the system
3.4.1 When should you check the operating
pressure?
Recently topped-up heating water loses much of its vo-
lume in the first few days because it releases gases.
This creates air locks and the heating water starts to
gurgle.
BAfter installing a new heating system, check the ope-
rating pressure daily for the first few days. If neces-
sary top up with heating water and bleed the
radiators.
BAfter a while the operating pressure will only need to
be checked monthly. If necessary top up with heating
water and bleed the radiators.
3.4.2 Checking the operating pressure
Your heating contractor has set the red needle of the
pressure gauge to the required operating pressure (at
least 1 bar).
BCheck that the pressure gauge needle is within the
green band.
BTop up with heating water if the pressure gauge
needle is below the green range.
3.4.3 Topping up with heating water and venting
the system
Let your local heating contractor show you where the
boiler fill and drain cock for topping up the heating water
is located on your heating system.

RISK TO HEALTH
from contamination of drinking water.
BLet your heating contractor show you
how to top up your heating system with
water.

BSlowly fill the heating system via the on-site fill valve.
During filling, observe the pressure gauge.
BOnce the desired operating pressure is reached, stop
the procedure.
BWith the aid of a bleed key, bleed the heat exchanger
via the bleed valve.
BVent the heating system via the radiator bleed val-
ves.
BTop up with water again if the operating pressure
drops as a result of bleeding the system.
SYSTEM DAMAGE
through temperature stresses.
Temperature stresses can cause cracks if
you fill your heating system when it is hot.
The boiler will then leak.
BOnly fill the heating system when cold
(the flow temperature must not exceed
40 °C).

USER INFORMATION
Vent the boiler and heat exchanger sepa-
rately.
SYSTEM DAMAGE
through frequent topping up.
The heating system may be damaged, de-
pending on water quality, by corrosion or
scaling if you frequently need to top-up the
heating water.
BAsk your heating contractor whether
you can use your tap water untreated or
whether you need to treat it before fil-
ling your system.
BNotify your heating contractor if you
need to regularly add top-up water to
your system.

3.5 Operating information
Correct fuel
This heating system requires fuel of the correct type and
grade to ensure its correct operation.
Follow the advice of your heating contractor if you want
to convert your heating system to another type of fuel or
use fuel with a different specification.
Installation location
Use the following fuel only:
Stamp/date/signature
SYSTEM DAMAGE
through incorrect fuel.
BUse only the fuel specified.
BOILER DAMAGE
through contaminated combustion air.
BNever use chlorinated cleaning agents
or halogenated hydrocarbons (such as
those contained in spray cans, solvents
or cleaning agents, paints and adhesi-
ves).
BAvoid very dusty atmospheres.
SYSTEM DAMAGE
through water.
BIf there is a serious risk of flooding, dis-
connect the boiler from its power supply
and shut off the fuel supply before wa-
ter enters the boiler room
(ÆChapter 3.2, page 7).
BIf water entered your heating system,
ask your heating contractor to check
the system prior to returning it to use.
BAsk your heating contractor to replace
any valves and control/regulating
equipment which have come into con-
tact with water.

3.6 Why is regular maintenance important?
Heating systems should be regularly serviced for the fol-
lowing reasons:
• to maintain a high level of efficiency and to operate
the system economically (low fuel consumption),
• to achieve a high level of operational reliability
• to maintain the cleanest possible combustion
SYSTEM DAMAGE
through lack of, or unsatisfactory, cleaning
and maintenance.
BHave your heating system inspected,
cleaned and serviced once a year by a
heating contractor.
BWe recommend you enter into a con-
tract covering an annual inspection,
and maintenance on a demand-depen-
dent basis.

4 Troubleshooting
4.1 Identifying and clearing faults
If there is a fault, the fault code will flash on the control
unit display. The programming unit shows faults as plain
text messages.
A fault is present if the display flashes and indicates
something other than the current boiler water tempera-
ture or a message related to standard operation.
Example: "6A" = burner does not start
BPress and hold down the “Reset” button for about
5 seconds to clear the fault.
The display shows "rE" whilst the reset is being imple-
mented. The reset is only possible if a fault message
flashes.
If the display then reverts to a standard operating mes-
sage, the fault has been cleared. Should the fault recur,
repeat the reset two or three times.
Fig. 9 Clearing a fault with the "Reset"
SYSTEM DAMAGE
from frost.
The heating system can freeze up if it has
been switched off through a fault shut-
down.
BImmediately remedy the fault and re-
start the heating system.
BIf this is not possible, protect your hea-
ting system against freezing by drai-
ning the central heating and DHW
pipework at the lowest possible point.
BDrain the heat exchanger.
