12.0 Care of the Boiler

12.1 Cleaning the Outer case
The painted panels should be wiped with a damp cloth and
then dried completely. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE
CLEANING AGENTS.
12.2 Maintenance
1. The appliance MUST be serviced annually by a Baxi
authorised engineer.
2. Before electrically isolating the appliance: remove all demands
for heat and ensure the engine has disconnected from the grid.
(Power = 0 kW) This will protect the engine from the stresses
produced by disconnecting during electricity generation.
12.3 Condensate drain
The condensate drain, located at the bottom of the appliance,
must not be modified or blocked. Blockage will cause the
appliance to shut down.
12.4 Protection & Precaution
1. The appliance incorporates frost protection for itself only,
fitted as standard. If the system has a i-THINK Controller
configured as a Room Sensor mounted in a cradle on a wall
then the central heating system will also be protected.
2. In cold weather, if you are going away, turn the appliance off
at the time switch ONLY. Leave the mains supply switched ON.
This will ensure protection by the frost thermostat. Alternatively
use the Holiday Mode (see Section 7.9).
3. If a system frost thermostat has been fitted (your installer will
be able to advise you), then to operate correctly and protect
your system, the gas and electricity must be left on and the
appliance set in the central heating mode.
4. The boiler incorporates an integral pump protection feature
which continually monitors the time since the pump last
operated. To prevent seizure, the pump will operate for
approximately 1 minute if it has not run in the last 24 hours.
12.5 Fault Indication
1. If a fault occurs on the boiler an error code may be shown
on the facia display.
12.6 In an Emergency
If a gas leak occurs or is suspected, the boiler can be
isolated at the inlet valves as follows;
1. Using a suitable open ended spanner, turn the square
nut on the gas tap through 90° (
direction to isolate the gas supply at the boiler.
2. Call your Installer or Service Engineer as soon as
possible.
