with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations.
2. Description
TheFerroliROMA 55FF isdesignedtosupplycentralheatingand,viaanindirectcylinder,storedhotwater.
Once the pilot has been lit and the control thermostat set, the boiler will function automatically in response
to the control thermostat and any external controls eg programmer, room thermostat, cylinder thermostat,
which may be fitted.
3. Gas leaks or faults
If gas leak or fault is suspected, always turn off at the electrical supply and, in the case of a gas leak, isolate
the gas supply. Consult the local region of British Gas PLC or your service engineer, quoting the name and
G.C. Number (see front page).
4. Precautions
1. If the boiler is istalled in a compartement, do not use that compartement for storage eg of food.
Always keep any purpose provided ventilation clear of obstruction.
2. Check that the flue terminal, outside the house, is clear of obstruction, from time to time.
3. Do not hang clothes, etc. over the boiler.
4. Always mantain minimum clearances from the boiler, for safe operation and access for servicing.
5. Lighting
1. Ensure the gas supply is on.
2. Turn on electricity supply and set any external controls to call for heat.
3. Turn the control thermostat knob A fully clockwise to MAX.
4. Twist the gas control knob B clockwise and release.

6. Control
The control thermostat knob A can be adjusted to suit system requirements. Settings are graduated from
approximately 30°C at minimum to approximately 85°C at maximum, corresponding to the water flow
temperature from the boiler, and assuming a correctly size system with the flow rate adjusted accordingly.
7. To turn off
1. For Short Periods Simply turn control thermostat knob A fully anticlockwise to OFF. The pilot will remain
alight but the main burner will not light, even if external controls call for heat.
2. For long periods turn the control thermostat knob A fully anticlockwise to OFF, twist the gas control knob
B clockwise and release, to extinguish the pilot, and switch off the electricy supply.
8. System frost protection
Ifthereisanypartthesystemwhichisinanareawhichmaybesubjecttolowtemperatures,protectionagainst
frost is advisable during long absence from the dwelling.
Various means are available:
a) External frost thermostat.
b) Effective lagging.
c) Leave all controls on at low setting.
d) Draining of the system.
Consult your Installer or Service Engineer for the best advice.
9. Overheat thermostat
Yourboilerisfittedwiththissafetydevicewhich,ifactivated,willshutdownthemainburnerandpilot.(Normal
control is via the control thermostat which will cycle the main burner leaving the pilot alight). If the pilot is
extinguished for no apparent reason, the overhead thermostat may have locked out the gas supply. Allow
the system water to cool, turn off the electrical supply, and repeat the lighting procedure, Section 5. Above.
If the problem persists, turn off the boiler and consult your Service Engineer.

11. Maintenance
We recommend that the boiler be serviced annually, to ensure continued safe and efficient operation, by a
qualified person. Your local region of British Gas PLC for instance, will arrange a service contract.
12. Water system
If your boiler is installed on a sealed water system, there will be additional devices fitted, including a water
pressure gauge. Observe the reading when the system is cold. Should it fall from this value over a period of
time a leak is indicated which should be rectified. Do not run the boiler if the reading falls to zero.
13. Simple Checks
If a fault is suspected or discovered, you should contact your installer, service engineer or other competent
person. The following list however, is a series of simple checks that should be made before contacting your
installer:
a) Is the plug properly located in the socket and 3 amp fuse intact?
b) Is the electricity supply switch on?
c) Is gas supply on and is pilot alight?
d) Is the room thermostat (if fitted) set high enough?
e) Is the boiler thermostat set high enough?
f) Is the time clock in the on position? (i.e. calling for central heating) (if fitted)
g) Are the radiator valves open?
h) Is the water system O.K.?
