Points to check if burner fails to light

1.5
1 Check that the boiler On/Off switch is ON.
2 Check that any remote programmer (if fitted) is
working and is in an 'on' period.
3 Check that all thermostats are set to the desired setting
and are calling for heat.
4 Check if the burner 'Lock-out' reset button is lit. If it is,
press it to start the burner. If the burner fails to light and
goes to 'Lock-out' again, check that you have sufficient
fuel in the storage tank and that the fuel supply valve is
open.
5 Ensure that a fuse has not blown or that the electricity
supply has not failed.
6 Check to see if the safety thermostat has operated (see
section 1.7).
If the burner still fails to light after carrying out these
checks then a fault exists. Switch off the electricity supply
to the boiler and contact your Service engineer.
1.6
About your fuel
Euroflame boilers will operate on either Class C2 Kerosene
or Class D Gas Oil. Your Installer will have informed you of
the type of fuel your boiler has been set to use and he will
have marked this on the boiler data label. You should always
quote the type of fuel you require when ordering from your
supplier.

1 - USER INSTRUCTIONS
Note: Balanced flue models (flue terminal through the
wall) must only be used with Kerosene.
Do not wait until the fuel runs out before you order some
more. Sludge in the bottom of the tank may be drawn into
the fuel lines. If it is possible, switch off the boiler when
the new supply is delivered and leave the fuel to settle for
an hour before restarting the boiler.

General notes and care of your system
1 Boiler thermostat - This control allows the
temperature of the water leaving the boiler to heat the
radiators and domestic hot water to be adjusted.
Note: If you have a cylinder thermostat on your hot
water cylinder, this will control the temperature of
your domestic hot water. The boiler thermostat setting
must be equal to or above the cylinder thermostat
setting to enable the cylinder thermostat to control the
domestic hot water system.
The boiler thermostat has an operating range of 65 to
85°C. The following settings are recommended:-
a Heating and hot water in Winter 85°C
b Hot water only in Summer 65°C
2 Burner Lock-out reset button - If there is a burner
malfunction, a built-in safety circuit switches the
burner off and the Lock-out reset button will light.
Usually such malfunctions are short lived and
pressing the reset button will restore normal
operation.
If the burner continually goes to 'Lock-out' a fault
exists or the fuel supply is low. If you have sufficient
fuel, you will need to call your Service engineer.
3 Safety thermostat - Your boiler is fitted with a safety
overheat thermostat which will automatically switch
off the boiler in the case of a control malfunction
causing overheating.
If your boiler goes off and you try to light it but nothing
happens and the 'Lock-out' reset button on the burner is
not lit, the overheat thermostat has probably operated.
The boiler will not light until the thermostat is reset. To
reset, unscrew the small plastic cap (see Fig. 30a or 30b),
press the button then replace the cap.
If this condition continually repeats, contact your
Service engineer.
