Introduction

Theinformationgivenwill help you obtain the maximum

comfort from your boiler with the minimum trouble and

cost. Your boiler is fully automatic in operation and

requires very little attention apart from setting the

thermostat.

BoilerThermostat

The boiler thermostat enables you to control the

temperature of the water as it leaves the boiler and is

alsoused for turningtheboileronand off.Thethermostat

knob can be set between 'O' (OFF), 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or Max.

Thegraduations1to MAX correspond approximately to

a temperature range of 55 °C to 82 °C

Duringthe summer months,whentheboilerisonly being

usedtosupplystoreddomestichotwaterandthereisno

independent hot water temperature control, the

thermostat can be set to position 1 or 2 which will

probably be hot enough for bathing or washing up

requirements.Forwashingclothesahigher setting may

be necessary.

In winter weather, when central heating is required, the

thermostat knob can be turned up higher but it must be

rememberedthatunlessthetemperature of the water in

the domestic hot water cylinder is independently

controlled,the storedhotwatercould beatatemperature

that could scald.

OtherControls

A programmer or clock may have been fitted in your

system,together withroomand/orcylinderthermostats.

Full instructions on the use of these controls should be

supplied with them.

To Light

Note: When the boiler is first operated, there may be a

slight smell. This will disappear with use.

1. Ensure that the boiler thermostat knob is set at 'O'

(fully anti-clockwise).

2. Switch ON the main electricity supply.

3. Ensure the electronic programmer or other time

control,iffitted,isinan 'ON' position (refer to the time

controlliterature).

4. Ensure that any room and/or cylinder thermostats

are at a high temperature setting.

5. Turn the boiler thermostat on and to the required

setting. After a short period, the boiler will light. The

main burner can be seen through the sight glass on

the front of the boiler.

6. Set the time control and any thermostats to their

desired settings.

To Shut Off - Short Periods

Turn the boiler thermostat knob to 'O' (OFF) or switch

the programmer to the 'OFF' position. To re-light the

boiler,simplyturn the boiler thermostat Onorswitch the

programmer'On'.

To Shut Off - Long Periods

Turn the boiler thermostat knob to 'O' (OFF), isolate the

electrical supply at the isolating switch, or pull the

electrical plug out of the wall socket.

Important: Read the section on Frost Precaution.

Note: If the system is fitted with a low limit thermostat

and protection of the system is required during cold

weather, all that is required is for the programmer to be

turned to the 'Off' position. This will allow the boiler to

cycle if the temperature within the house becomes too

low.

Important

Gas and electricity are required to operate your boiler.

Itsperformancewill not be affectedby normal variation

ineithersupply,butagasorelectricityfailurewillputthe

boileroutofoperation. It will automatically re-start when

the supply is restored provided that the time clock and/

or thermostats are in the 'On' position.

Note: In the event of your boiler not working, there are

several checks you should carry out before calling in a

Service Engineer, as this could save you unnecessary

expense.

1. Check that the gas, electricity and water are all

turned 'On' at the main supply points.

2. Check that the time control, if fitted, is in an 'On'

period.

3. Check that all the thermostats in the system are not

on low settings.

OverheatLimitThermostat

The boiler is fitted with a safety thermostat to protect

against overheating of the water. If this thermostat

operates the boiler will lockout and fail to re-light, allow

theboilertocoolandpress the reset button (

DoNotuse

excessive pressure

). Access to the button is through a

holeintheunderside of the controls cover, see drawing

on front of these instructions. If the control does not

reset, leave the boiler for approx. 15 minutes before

pressing the reset button again.

If the problem persists, turn off the boiler and consult

your Local Installer or Service Engineer.

Note: Interruption of the electrical supply to the boiler

may also cause the overheat thermostat to operate.

Having checked these points, run through the lighting

procedure once more and if the boiler still fails to light,

call in your Service Engineer.

FrostPrecautions

If your boiler has to be shut down for several hours or

more during very cold weather, it may be in danger of

freezing,duetoitsposition,i.e.itmaybeinanouthouse

or part of the pipework may be vulnerable to frost. To

avoid freezing, various methods of protection can be

used:-

1. Insulationoftheboiler and pipework, takingcarenot

to impede any ventilation or air supply.

2. Completelydrainingthewatersystemifnotinusefor

long periods. On a sealed system, draining and

refilling must be carried out by a competent person.

Note:Although the system can be emptied by using

thedrainofftapsinstalledinthe pipework around the

system, to empty the boiler, it is necessary to

removethedrain screw which is situatedonthe heat

exchanger casting. This should only be done by a

competentperson.

3. Have a low limit thermostat fitted. If the system is

fittedwitha low limit thermostat andprotection of the

system is required during cold weather, all that is

requiredisfortheprogrammertobeturnedtothe'Off

'position. This will allow the boiler to operate if the

temperaturewithinthe house becomes toolow. The

low limit thermostat will not operate if the boiler is

completely shut down and the electricity supply

turned off. In this instance, the system will have no

protection and one of the other methods must be

used.

4. Where no frost protection is provided it may be

necessarytoruntheboileratlowthermostatsettings

at all times when it would normally be shut off.

Cleaning the Outside of the Boiler Casing

The outside of the boiler casing can be wiped when

necessary by using a damp cloth to remove finger

marks etc. Do not use an abrasive cleaner as this may

damage the casing finish.
