1 BOILER CONTROLS
To shut down the boiler
1. For short periods
Turn the boiler on/off switch (E) to OFF. When heating is
again required, restore the switch to ON.
2. For longer periods
Turn the boiler ON/OFF switch (E) to OFF. Switch the
electricity supply to OFF.
Frost protection
If no frost protection is provided and frost is likely during a short
absence from home, leave the heating controls at a reduced
temperature setting.
For longer periods, the entire system should be drained -
including the domestic water supply. If the system includes a
frost thermostat then, during cold weather, the boiler should be
turned OFF at the time switch(es) ONLY. The mains supply
should be left switched ON, with the boiler thermostat left in the
normal running position.
Control of water temperature
1. Adjust the boiler thermostat (C) to give the required
temperature for central heating.
2. The boiler thermostat automatically switches the main burner
OFF and ON to maintain the selected temperature.
To relight the boiler
Repeat the procedure 1 - 8, detailed in 'To light the boiler'.
Loss of system water pressure
If the red arrow on the system pressure gauge is set above zero
and the system pressure is seen to fall below this value over a
period of time then a water leak is indicated. In this event a
CORGI registered installer or in IE a competent person should
be consulted.
DO NOT OPERATE THE BOILER IF THE PRESSURE HAS
REDUCED TO ZERO FROM THE ORIGINAL SETTING.
Escape of gas
Should a gas leak be suspected, contact your local gas supplier
without delay.
Do NOT search for gas leaks with a naked flame.
Cleaning
For normal cleaning simply dust with a dry cloth.
To remove stubborn marks and stains, wipe with a damp cloth
and finish off with a dry cloth.
Do NOT use abrasive cleaning materials.
Maintenance
The appliance should be serviced at least once a year by a
CORGI registered installer or in IE a competent person.
