Sealed Components
Under no circumstances must the User interfere with any
sealed component as this could result in a
potentially dangerous situation arising.
Electrical Supply Failure
This boiler must be earthed.
The boiler will not work without an electrical supply.
Normal operation of the boiler should resume when the
electrical supply is restored.
Reset any external controls to resume normal operation
of the central heating.
If the boiler does not resume normal operation turn the
mains reset switch off and on. If the boiler does not
resume normal operation after this the overheat
thermostat may have operated. The overheat
thermostat would only operate under abnormal
conditions and, under these circumstances; it would be
advisable to consult your installation / servicing
company.
2.10 Protection Against Freezing
The boiler has a built in frost protection programme as
long as the electricity and gas are left switched on.
This device operates the burner and system pump when
the temperature inside the boiler falls to 3°C.
Any other exposed areas of the system should be
protected by a separate frost thermostat.
If the mains electricity and gas are to be turned off for
any long periods during severe weather, it is
recommended that the whole system, including the
boiler, should be drained to avoid the risk of freezing.
Make sure that, if fitted, the immersion heater in the
cylinder is switched off.
If you have a sealed water system contact your
installation/ servicing company as draining, refilling and
pressurising MUST be carried out by a competent
person.
As a safety feature the boiler will stop working if the
condensate drain becomes blocked. During freezing
conditions this may be due to the forming of ice in the
condense drain external to the house. Release an ice
blockage by the use of warm cloths on the pipe. The
boiler should then restart. Contact your installation/
servicing company if the fault persists.
2.11 Boilers Installed in a Compartment or Cupboard
If the boiler is fitted into a compartment or cupboard it
does not require ventilation openings.
Do not use the compartment or cupboard for storage.
2.12 Boiler Casing
Do not remove or adjust the casing in any way, as
incorrect-fitting may result in incorrect operation or
failure to operate at all.

2.13 Condensate Drain
The condensate drain, see section 10.3, must not be
modified or blocked.
2.14 Pluming from flue terminal
All condensing boilers produce a plume of water vapour
from the flue terminal. This is due to the high efficiency
and hence low flue gas temperature. This may increase
in wet, damp weather but this is completely normal and
indicates that the boiler is operating correctly.
2.15 Cleaning
This appliance contains metal parts and care should be
taken when handling and cleaning with particular regard
to edges.
The boiler casing can be cleaned using a mild liquid
detergent with a damp cloth, then a dry cloth to polish.
Do not use any form of abrasive or solvent cleaner as
you may damage the paint work.
2.16 Maintenance and Servicing
For the continued efficient and safe operation of the
boiler it is recommended that it is checked and serviced
at regular intervals. The frequency of servicing will
depend upon the installation conditions and usage, but in
general, once a year should be enough.
