3.1
1. With a demand for heating, the pump circulates water
through the primary circuit.
2. Once main burner ignites the fan speed controls the gas
rate to maintain the heating temperature measured by the
7 temperature sensor.
3. When the flow temperature exceeds the setting
temperature, a 3 minute delay occurs before the burner
relights automatically (anti-cycling). The pump continues to
run during this period.
8
4. When the demand is satisfied the burner is extinguished
and the pump continues to run for a period of 3 minutes
(Pump Overrun).

1. Priority is given to the domestic hot water supply. A
17
demand at a tap or shower will override any central heating
12
requirement.
2. The flow of water will operate the Hall Effect Sensor
which requests the 3 way valve to change position. This will
allow the pump to circulate the primary water through the
DHW plate heat exchanger.
3. The burner will light automatically and the temperature of
the domestic hot water is controlled by the temperature
sensor.
4. When the domestic hot water demand ceases the burner
will extinguish and the diverter valve will remain in the
domestic hot water mode, unless there is a demand for
central heating.
IMPORTANT: When the selector switch is in the '0'
(Off) position the electrical supply to the boiler is isolated.
The boiler will not operate and the integral timer will
require resetting once the selector switch is set to either
Position (i) or Position (ii).
3.3
1. The frost protection mode is integral to the appliance and
functions only with the selector switch (see Section 2.1) in
the domestic hot water and central heating position. If the
7
system temperature falls below 5° C then the boiler will fire
on its minimum setting until a flow temperature of 30° C is
reached.
3.4
8
1. With the selector switch (see Section 2.1) in either the
central heating or central heating and domestic hot water
position, the pump will automatically operate for 1 minute in
11
every 24 hours to prevent sticking.
