- Switch the boiler on at the control panel
switch and check that the green power indi-
cator lights (fig. 4.4).

shows a pressure over 1 bar with the system
cold. Check also that the central heating
circuit is properly de-aerated.
- Check that the pressure in the central hea-
ting circuit expansion vessel is sufficient
(about 1 bar).
- Check that the electrical connections to the
