The main switch is used to switch the product on and off.
The +button is used to display the cylinder temperature (if
the product is equipped with a cylinder temperature sensor).
The −button is used to display the filling pressure of the
heating installation.
The Reset button is used to reset the product in the case of
certain faults.
The heating flow temperature rotary knob is used to set the
heating flow temperature if no control is connected. If a con-
trol is connected, the heating flow temperature rotary knob
should be turned clockwise as far as it will go.
The cylinder temperature rotary knob is used to set the cyl-
inder temperature if a domestic hot water cylinder is connec-
ted.
If a control is connected, the rotary knob should be turned
clockwise as far as it will go. The control then determines the
cylinder temperature.

3.4 Frost protection function
The product is equipped with a frost protection function.
If the heating flow temperature falls below 5 °C when the
main switch is on, the product starts up and heats the cir-
culating water to approx. 30 °C.
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to frost.
The frost protection function cannot guaran-
tee flow through the entire heating installa-
tion, which means that parts of the heating
installation may freeze and therefore become
damaged.
▶During a period of frost, ensure that the
heating installation remains in operation
and that all rooms are sufficiently heated,
even when you are away.
▶Consult a competent person about this.
3.5 Type designation and serial number
The type designation and the serial number are located on a
sticker below the control panel behind the front flap.
The data plate can only be seen by the competent person.
▶Open the front flap. (→Page 5)
▶Read off the type designation and the serial number from
the sticker.
3.6 CE label
The CE label shows that the products comply with the basic
requirements of the applicable directives as stated on the
identification plate.
The declaration of conformity can be viewed at the manufac-
turer's site.
4 Operation
4.1 Adjustment and display levels
The product has two adjustment and display levels.
The end user level contains information and setting options
that you require as the end user.
The installer level is reserved for the competent person. It is
protected by a code. Only competent persons may change
any settings in the installer level.
4.2 Starting up the product
4.2.1 Opening the isolator devices
1. Ask the competent person who installed the product to
explain to you where these isolator devices are located
and how to handle them.
2. Open the gas stopcock fully.
3. Check that the heating installation flow and return
service valves are open, if such service valves are
installed.
4. If a domestic hot water cylinder is connected, open the
cold-water isolation valve. To check, you can turn on a
hot water tap and see whether water is escaping there.

°C again.
4.7 Status code meanings
The status codes that are shown in the DIA system's display
provide information about the product's current operating
status.
If several operating statuses occur at the same time, the
applicable status codes are displayed alternately, one after
the other. The status code is explained a plain text display in
the display.
Status codes (→Page 14)
5 Care and maintenance
5.1 Caring for the product
Caution.
Risk of material damage caused by un-
suitable cleaning agents.
▶Do not use sprays, scouring agents, de-
tergents, solvents or cleaning agents that
contain chlorine.
▶Clean the casing with a damp cloth and a little solvent-
free soap.
5.2 Maintenance
An annual inspection and biennial maintenance of the
product carried out by a competent person is a prerequisite
for ensuring that the product is permanently ready and safe
for operation, reliable, and has a long working life. The
inspection may require maintenance to be carried out earlier,
depending on the results.
5.3 Guaranteeing the correct filling pressure of
the heating installation
5.3.1 Checking the system pressure
1
1−button
▶Check the heating installation's filling pressure at regular
intervals. Briefly press the −button.
◁The display will show the filling pressure for approx-
imately 5 seconds.
◁The filling pressure must be between 0.1 MPa and
0.2 MPa (1.0 and 2.0 bar) when the heating installa-
tion is cold in order for the heating installation to op-
erate properly. If the pressure is lower, you must add
heating water before starting up.
Note
You can permanently switch between the tem-
perature or pressure display in the display by
pressing and holding the –button for approx-
imately five seconds.
Note
To avoid operating the heating installation with
an insufficient water volume and to prevent
potential subsequent damage, the product
is fitted with a pressure sensor. The pres-
sure sensor signals the low pressure level if
the level falls below 0.06 MPa (0.6 bar). This
is signalled by the system pressure value in
the display flashing. If the level falls below
0.03 MPa (0.3 bar), the system displays the
fault message and F.22 alternately, and the
burner is blocked. If the system pressure is
lower than 0.06 MPa (0.6 bar), fill the heat-
ing installation up again as quickly as pos-
sible. As soon as the system pressure ex-
ceeds 0.06 MPa (0.6 bar), the product starts
up without any further measures being re-
quired.
If the pressure sensor is defective, the
product enters comfort protection mode. The
maximum possible flow temperature and the
power are limited. The status S.40 and F.22
(water deficiency) are displayed alternately.
Note
If the heating installation extends over several
floors, a higher system pressure for the heat-
ing installation may be necessary. Ask your
competent person for details.

Care and maintenance 5
0020258609_00 ecoVIT exclusiv Operating instructions 11
5.3.2 Filling the heating installation
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to heating
water that is extremely calciferous or cor-
rosive or contaminated by chemicals.
Unsuitable tap water damages the seals
and diaphragms, blocks components in the
product and heating installation through
which the water flows and causes noise.
▶Only fill the heating installation with suit-
able heating water.
▶In case of doubt, ask a competent person
for details.
1. Ask a competent person where the filling cock is loc-
ated.
2. Connect the filling cock to a hot water supply in the way
you were told by the competent person.
3. Open all radiator valves (thermostatic radiator valves) of
the heating installation.
4. Open the hot water supply.
5. Slowly open the filling cock.
6. Fill it with water until the required filling pressure is
reached.
7. Close the hot water supply.
8. Purge all radiators.
9. Then check the filling pressure on the display.
10. Top up with more water if necessary.
11. Close the filling cock.
5.4 Checking the condensate discharge pipe
and tundish
The condensate discharge pipe and tundish must always be
penetrable.
▶Regularly check the condensate discharge pipe and tun-
dish for faults and, particularly, for blockages.
You must not be able to see or feel any obstructions in the
condensate discharge pipe and tundish.
▶If you notice a fault, have it eliminated by a competent
person.

Measurement and inspection work must only be
carried out by the chimney sweep or competent
person.
