Systemiser SE:
The condensing system boiler
The Ideal Systemiser SE is a wall mounted, fanned flue system boiler which
serves a home's central heating system. It has been designed to be 'friendly'
to the user, installer and service engineer.
Systemiser SE: The fit anywhere system boiler
Simple fanned 'go anywhere' flue
The Systemiser SE's flue turret simply rotates through 360° to allow horizontal
outlet in any direction. Options include horizontal flue length extensions or
simple vertical flue kits - and the flue is self-sealing, eliminating the need for
outside assembly - an important benefit in high-rise applications.
Downward or upward connections...
Water and gas connections have been designed to be as simple and fast as
possible. The Ideal Systemiser SE comes complete with a rugged mounting
frame which when fitted with the stand-off brackets can accommodate
downward or upward routed gas, water and electrical connections before the
boiler is fitted.
...and it fits inside a cupboard
Its compact size makes the Systemiser SE ideal for any kitchen. It can be
installed inside a cupboard without any ventilation.
Systemiser SE: The system boiler you can rely on
The Systemiser SE has been designed and developed with reliability as the
number one priority. But even the finest engineered product may develop a
fault at some stage in its lifetime. To support the Systemiser SE we have
created the Ideal Care Guarantee which sets out our target to repair any fault
next day.
Free Guarantee: 1st Year Ideal Care
The home owner is entitled to 12 months free Ideal Care, which includes both
parts and labour, to restore the boiler to full function. Please encourage the
home owner to complete and return the registration form in their Householder's
pack within 30 days of installation.
Optional Extra Year Cover with Ideal Care
You may wish to offer your own annual service plan or you may wish to advise
the home owner to complete their application form for the appropriate level of
extended Ideal Care - Silver, Gold or Platinum. Full details are available in the
Ideal Care brochure.

Introduction
The Systemiser SE is a wall mounted, room sealed, super efficient
condensing system boiler, featuring full sequence automatic spark
ignition and fan assisted combustion.
Due to the very high efficiency of the boiler, condensate is produced
from the flue gases and this is drained to a suitable disposal point
through the plastic waste pipe at the left lower rear of the boiler. A
condensate 'plume' will also often be visible at the flue terminal.
Safety
Gas safety (Installation & Use) Regulations 1994,
amendments 1996 or rules in force.
In your own interest, and that of safety, it is the law that this boiler
must be installed by a registered installer, in accordance with all
national and local regulations.
It is essential that the instructions in this
booklet are strictly followed, for safe and
economical operation of the boiler.
BOILER CONTROLS

Systemiser SE - User's
To light the boiler
1. Check that the electricity supply to the boiler is OFF.
2. Open the controls access door .
3. Set the on/off switch (C) and CH switch (D) to OFF.
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 programmer is fitted, refer to the separate instructions
provided.
5. Set the on/off switch (C) to ON and CH switch (D) to the desired
position.
The boiler will first execute a self-check cycle then commence
the ignition sequence.
Note. In the normal running STANDBY mode, the left hand
display digit indicates the boiler sequence and the other 2 digits
the boiler flow temperature.
Sequence Boiler Status
0 Standby - no heat request
1 Purge
2 Ignition
3 Burner on - CH
6. Close the controls door.
Operation
WINTER CONDITIONS - i.e. CH
Set the CH switch (D) to ON.
The boiler will fire and supply heat to the radiators.
SUMMER CONDITIONS
Set the CH switch (D) to OFF.
Control of water temperature
The boiler controls the central heating radiator temperature to a
maximum of 82 oC
To return the boiler to normal running STANDBY mode press the
RESET button.
To shut down the boiler
1. For short periods
Set the CH switch (D) to OFF.
2. For longer periods
Set the on/off switch (C) and CH switch (D) to OFF, and switch
the electricity supply to OFF.
Frost protection
This is provided automatically by the boiler control unit. If frost is
likely during an absence from home, turn the boiler off at the time
switches ONLY, leaving the mains supply switched ON.
If the boiler flow temperature falls below 7 oC the pump will run,
without the boiler firing, until the temperature exceeds 10 oC.
If the flow temperature falls below 3 oC the boiler will fire until the
temperature exceeds 10 oC.
Fault condition
If the boiler will not light initially or if a fault develops during normal
operation, the first digit and the last 2 digits of the display will flash
alternately. In this event press the RESET button and the boiler
will recommence the ignition cycle.
If the fault condition persists, turn the boiler OFF and consult your
CORGI registered installer.
Loss of system water pressure
The gauge (E) on the control panel indicates the central heating
system pressure. If the pressure is seen to fall below the original
installation pressure of 1-2 bar over a period of time then a water
leak is indicated. In this event consult your local registered installer.
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
IMMEDIATELY.
Do NOT search for gas leaks with a naked flame.
Condensate drain
The condensate drain must NOT be modified or blocked.
Blockage caused by debris or freezing can cause automatic
shutdown of the boiler.
If freezing is suspected and the pipe run is accessible, an attempt
may be made to free the obstruction by pouring hot water over the
exposed pipe and clearing any blockage from the end of the pipe.
If this fails to remedy the problem seek advice from your local
registered installer.
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
registered installer, local gas authority or registered service
organisation.

EACH SERVICE AND KEPT WITH THESE
