Faults / Solutions - Riello GS5 Installation, Use And Maintenance Instructions

FAULTS / SOLUTIONS

Here below you can find some causes and the possible solutions for a series of problems that could cause a
failure to start or the poor operation of the burner. A fault in the operation usually switches on the lockout
lamp, situated inside the reset button of the control box (7, fig. 1, page 1). When lock-out lamp lights the
burner will attempt to light only after pushing the reset button. After this if the burner functions correctly, the
lock-out can be attributed to a temporary fault. However, if lockout continues, you must determine the cause
of the problem and take the action illustrated in the tables below .
