Important
In this condition, the boiler and the heating installation are not
protected against frost.
The purpose of this function is to degas the heating installation. After
installing the boiler, the function activates immediately when the boiler is
first started up. The function automatically activates each time the boiler
power supply is turned off and then on again.
To start the function manually:
Access the installer menu and enter the password.
Turn the knob until "DEAIR" is displayed.
Press the F4 knob and -AIR- appears on the display
Press the F4 knob again to activate the function.
It is a good idea to prevent the heating installation from draining
completely, as changing the water can result in unnecessary and
damaging limescale deposits from forming inside the boiler and heating
elements. If the thermal installation is not intended to be used during the
winter months and there is a risk of frost, we recommend mixing suitable
antifreeze solutions designed for a specific purpose (e.g. propylene glycol,
which contains limescale and corrosion inhibitors) into the water in the
installation. The boiler's electronic control system is equipped with an
"antifreeze" function for the heating system. This function activates the
boiler pump when the heating system flow temperature falls below 7 °C. If
the water temperature reaches 4 °C, the burner is switched on, bringing
the system water to a temperature of 10 °C. When this value is reached
the burner switches off and the pump continues to operate for another 3
minutes.
Important
The frost protection function will not work if there is no power
being supplied to the boiler or if the gas supply cock is closed.
