Operation
4
Starting Up the Heating System
The initial start-up and setup of the control must be done by a licensed
professional heating contractor.
We strongly recommend a service visit if reactivating the heating system after an
extended shut-down.
1. Check the pressure of the heating
system on the pressure gage .An
operating pressure of 15 psig is
typical - consult your heating
contractor. Take corrective actions if
necessary.
2. Ensure proper/adequate fuel supply
exists; open oil or gas shutoff valve.
3. Activate power to heating system
(from, for example, a switch located
external to the mechanical room).
4. Activate power on boiler
control “ “.
The green power indicator
illuminates.
5. Set room thermostat (or other heat
demand control) to desired
temperature.
A call for heat causes the red burner
status indicator to illuminate.
Your heating system is now ready for operation.
Shutting Down the Heating System
If it is likely that the heating system will not be used for an extended period of
time, we recommend a full shut-down.
We strongly recommend a service visit if deactivating the heating system after an
extended operating period. This ensures that preventative service measures such
as heat exchanger cleaning and burner calibration are undertaken.
1. Deactivate power on boiler
control “ “.
The green power indicator
deactivates.
2. Close oil or gas shutoff valve on the
tank (if applicable) and near the
burner.
3. Deactivate power to heating system
(from, for example, a switch located
external to the mechanical room).
5167 482 v1.2
In this circumstance, the control is
completely deactivated and the system
will not respond in the event of cold
weather conditions.
CAUTION

Operation
5
Altering the Maximum Boiler Water Temperature
The adjustable high limit (AHL) limits the maximum boiler water temperature when
a call for heat is made. The call for heat is typically made by a room thermostat.
Select an appropriate boiler water temperature (based upon advice from your
heating contractor).
The factory default setting is between 104 and 167°F / 40 and 75°C.
An elevated setting between 104 and 212°F / 40 and 100°C is possible if an
adjustment has been made by the heating contractor.
Turn selector to the right
(clockwise)
or
Turn selector to the left
(counter-clockwise)
Boiler water temperature limit
increases.
Boiler water temperature limit
decreases.
Space Heating Circuit Switch
The space heating circuit switch is only operational if a Viessmann
DHW Pump Module (Accessory) is installed and connected to the control.
For heating systems with domestic hot
water production:
HWinter operation:
for space heating and DHW
production, set space heating circuit
switch “ ”to“ ”.
HSummer operation:
for DHW production only, set space
heating circuit switch “ ”to“ ”.
5167 482 v1.2
Space heating pump is fully disabled; it
will not reactivate during cold weather
conditions.

Operation/Additional Safety Requirements

Service Notice for your Heating System
We strongly recommend that you have your heating system checked and serviced
by a qualified heating contractor on an annual basis to ensure a safe and energy
efficient operation.
A service contract is advisable.
Boiler
Every boiler must be cleaned within
certain time frames. A lack of cleaning
causes soot build-up in the combustion
chamber which raises the flue gas
temperature and reduces the efficiency
of your heating system.
System
Ensure that a qualified heating
contractor checks all system
components such as the expansion
tank, the pressure relief valve, the
pump(s), the zone valves, the low
water cut-off and all other system
componentry regularly.
Safety Requirements
Carbon monoxide
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission strongly recommends the
installation of carbon monoxide detectors
in buildings in which gas-burning
equipment is installed. Carbon monoxide
(CO) is a colorless, odorless gas, which
may be produced during incomplete
combustion of fuel and/or when the
flame does not receive an adequate
supply of combustion air.
Carbon monoxide can cause severe
personal injury or loss of life.
Therefore, carbon monoxide detectors
that are in compliance with a nationally
recognized standard (e.g. ANSI/UL
2034-2002, CSA 6.19-01) should be
installed and maintained in buildings that
contain gas-burning equipment.
Note:
Viessmann does not test any detectors
and makes no representation regarding
any brand or type of detector.
Frozen water pipe hazard
Your heating boiler is designed to provide
a warm and comfortable living
environment. It is NOT designed to
ensure against freezing of water pipes.
The boiler is equipped with several safety
devices that are designed to shut down
the boiler and to prevent it from
restarting in the event of various unsafe
conditions.
If your boiler remains off for an extended
period of time during cold weather, water
pipes may freeze and burst, resulting in
extensive water damage and conditions
in which mold could grow. Certain molds
are known to cause respiratory problems,
as well as to pose other serious health
risks. In case of water damage,
immediate measures should be taken to
dry out affected areas as quickly as
possible to prevent mold from developing.
If your home will be unattended for an
extended period of time during cold
weather, you should...
Shut off the water supply to the building,
drain the water pipes and add an
antifreeze for potable water to drain traps
and toilet tanks. Open faucets where
appropriate.
Or..
Have someone check the building
frequently during cold weather and call a
qualified service agency if required.
Or...
Install a reliable remote temperature
sensor that will notify somebody of
freezing conditions within the home.
Ensure the mechanical room and the
hot water heating boiler itself is kept
clean.
CAUTION
There are no user-serviceable
components on the boiler, burner,
control or on the heating system.
Contact a qualified heating
contractor for service!
WARNING
5167 482 v1.2
Failure to protect against frozen pipes
could result in burst water pipes,
serious property damage and/or
personal injury. Boiler may shut down.
Do not leave your home unattended for
long periods of time during freezing
weather conditions without turning off
the water supply and draining water
pipes or otherwise protecting against
theriskoffrozenpipes.

Saving Energy
... with a modern heating system
By purchasing a “modern” heating
system, you have taken a decisive step
towards saving energy.
Viessmann boilers operate optimally to
ensure minimum fuel consumption for
maximum heating value - efficient,
environmentally friendly and comfortable.
Your new heating system provides the
following alternatives to save energy:
– a well insulated hot water heating boiler
and domestic hot water tank
– clean combustion and high energy
extraction
...with proper heating
Additional energy can be saved by
considering the following measures in
addition to the above technical
improvements:
– proper ventilation: briefly open the
windows 1while turning off
thermostats or radiator valves 2
– avoid excess space heating; strive for a
room temperature of 68 ºF / 20 ºC
sinceevery2ºF/1ºCoflowerroom
temperature can save up to 5% in
heating costs.
– proper control settings 5.
– properly set the temperature for the
DHW tank 4
– set thermostatic zone valves properly
2
– do not block heat transfer surfaces or
thermostatic zone valves 3
– control use of warm water: a shower
generally requires less water than a
bath
– close window shutters (if applicable)
during nighttime hours.
...with regular servicing
Regular servicing of your heating system
6by a qualified heating contractor
ensures energy-efficient and
environmentally friendly operation.
...with good insulation
If still searching for additional possibilities
to save energy, review the insulation
installed
– on the heating system pipes and DHW
supply pipes,
– on the outside walls and on the roof
7,
– between heated (shaded gray) and
unheated (white fill) rooms 8,
– around windows 9.
5167 482 v1.2 Technical information subject to change without notice. Printed on environmentally friendly
(recycled and recyclable) paper.
Ensure properly sized fresh
combustion air supply to all fuel
burning appliances, including the hot
water heating boiler.
Tightly insulated homes require a
duct or opening in the boiler room to
allow outside air in for combustion.
Refer to codes and instructions.
