INTRODUCTION
The Harrier GTE is a floor-standing boiler featuring full
sequence automatic gas or fuel oil burner.
SAFETY
It is essential that the instructions in this booklet are strictly
followed, for safe and economical operation of the boiler.
FOR GAS FIRED BOILERS
Current Gas Safety (Installation & Use)
Regulations or rules in force.
In your own interest, and that of safety, it is the law that this boiler
must be installed and maintained by a CORGI registered
installer, in accordance with the above regulations.
The appliance should be serviced at least once a year by a
CORGI registered installer.
Electricity Supply
The appliance must be earthed.
Supply 230 V - 50 Hz.
The appliance is intended to be connected to the supply via a
double-pole switch, having a 3mm contact separation in both
poles, serving only the boiler and system controls. Alternatively,
a 3-pin UNSWITCHED socket may be used.
The burner and circulating pumps may be 1ph or 3ph.
Important Notes
• Do not store objects around or on the boiler, and keep
access clear at all times.
• Do not obstruct ventilation ducts, grilles or openings in the
boiler room or the passage of combustion and ventilation air
to the boiler.
• Do not turn off the boiler if it is to be left unattended in frosty
weather.
• If it is known or suspected that a fault exists on the boiler
then it MUST NOT BE USED until the fault has been
corrected by a recognised installer (CORGI registered for
gas-fired boilers).
• Flammable materials must not be placed in close proximity
to the appliance. Materials giving off flammable vapours
must not be stored in the same room as the appliance.
In cases of repeated or continuous shutdown, a recognised
installer (CORGI registered for gas-fired boilers) should be
called to investigate and rectify the condition causing this and
carry out an operational test after each intervention on the
device. Only the manufacturer's original parts should be used for
replacement.
Minimum Clearances
Clearances of 1000mm (40") at the rear, 200mm (8") plus
burner projection on burner hinge side or 500mm (20")
whichever is the greater on one side and 100mm (4") on the
other side and 1500mm (60") at the front of the boiler casing
must be allowed for servicing.
To Light the Boiler (Refer to Frame 1)
1. CHECK THAT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY TO THE BOILER
IS OFF.
2. Set the boiler on/off switch (1) to OFF.
3. Set the boiler flow temperature control (3A) to maximum (1st
stage control if high/low burner fitted).
4. Switch on the electricity supply to the boiler and check that all
external controls, e.g. programmer, room thermostat etc., are
on.
If a Deluxe control panel is fitted set the Burner and Pump
switch (2) to Winter, the Auto/Manual/Test switch (5) to Auto or
Manual and the Stage switch (6) to 2..
5. Set the boiler on/off switch (1) to ON.
The boiler will commence the ignition sequence, supplying
heat to the system when required.
Note.
If the burner does not ignite refer to the burner
instructions.
6. Set the boiler flow temperature control (3A) to the desired
setting. If a high/low burner is fitted, set the 2nd stage
temperature control (3B) to a setting 5ºC lower.
Settings below 4 (approx. 40ºC) are not recommended, in
order to avoid the risk of combustion products condensing
on the walls of the boiler.
If a Deluxe control panel is fitted set the Burner and Pump
Summer/Winter switch (2) and Stage switch (6) to the
desired setting.
7. Burner
Refer to the instructions supplied with the burner for specific
control features.

1 BOILER CONTROLS
2 CONTROL OF WATER TEMPERATURE
The water temperature is controlled by the boiler thermostat (item 3A). The temperature range of the thermostat is 30 - 90ºC for
ON/OFF operation. For boilers fitted with high/low burners, a 2nd stage thermostat controls the burner changeover from high to
low fire at a recommended setting 5ºC lower than the maximum flow temperature setting.
Note.
The setting numbers 3-9 are approximately scaled to represent 30-90ºC.

To Shut Down the Boiler
1. For short periods
Set the boiler on/off switch (1) to OFF.
2. For longer periods
Set the boiler on/off switch (1) to OFF. Switch the electricity
supply to OFF. For longer periods the entire system should
be drained.
To Relight the Boiler
Refill the system if it has been drained, taking care to ensure
no air is in the boiler or system.
Repeat the procedure detailed in 'To light the boiler'.
Frost Protection
If frost is likely and dependant on the system controls, which
may incorporate suitable safety features, leave the boiler
thermostat at a reduced temperature setting. Ensure external
controls allow the boiler to operate if necessary. Note that this
may not protect remote parts of the system, in which case a
separate frost thermostat should be fitted or the system
drained and the boiler shut down, as for Long Periods.
Boiler Overheat Thermostat
Boiler overheating is detected by the overheat thermostat
connected to the boiler control module. If the boiler has
overheated, allow it to cool then, press the safety thermostat
reset button, under the screw top cap (4), and the burner will
relight. If the fault recurs, turn off the boiler and consult a
recognised installer (CORGI registered for gas-fired boilers.)
Escape of Gas
Should a gas leak or fault 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 use a damp cloth and mild
detergent.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials.
