GENERAL CHECKS
1. Fully open all DHW taps in turn and ensure that water ows
freely and that the mode knob (D) is either in summer or
winter position. The boiler will display
“Hot Water” - “Temperature XX
o
C” -
“High Efciency” or “Super Efciency”
where the temperature shown is the current Domestic Hot
Water temperature.
When the burner is lit the light above the display will be on.
2. Close all taps except the furthest one from the boiler and
check that the boiler is ring at maximum rate.
This is factory set to give a DHW temperature rise of
approximately 35
o
C at the ow rate stated on page 8 under
“operation”.
3. Reduce the DHW draw-off rate to about 3 l/min (0.7gpm)
and check that the boiler modulates to deliver DHW at
approximately 64
o
C (with the DHW temperature control
knob set to maximum).
4. Close the DHW tap and check that the main burner
extinguishes. The pump should overrun for 60 seconds
during which the boiler will display “Normal boiler
operation”. The fan will then continue to run for a further 3
minutes during which the boiler will display “Normal boiler
operation” after which the boiler will display one of the
following “Boiler off” - “Summer setting” - “Winter
setting” depending on the position of the mode knob.
Note. On systems in excess of 2 bar inlet pressure a water
pressure governor may be required to prevent water noise.
CH & DHW MODE
1. Ensure the CH controls are calling for heat and that the
boiler mode knob is in the winter position and the CH ow
temperature control knob is in the maximum position. The
Boiler will display
“Central Heating” - “Radiators XXC” -
“High Efciency” or “Super Efciency”
where the temperature shown is the current ow temperature.
When the burner is lit the light above the display will be on.
2. Fully open the DHW tap and check that hot water is delivered.
The boiler will display “Hot water” - Temperature XX
o
C”
- High Efciency” or “Super Efciency”
3. Gas Rate
Check the boiler gas rate when the boiler is at full DHW
output. Check at the gas meter, with no other appliance in
use. Refer to Tables 2 and 3 for gas rates.
4. Close the DHW tap. The burner should remain on and the
boiler will display “Central heating” - “Radiator temp
XXC”.
5. Set the central heating external controls to off. The burner
will go off and the fan and pump continue to run for 4 minutes.
The boiler will display “Normal boiler operation” after which
the boiler will display one of the following: “Boiler off” -
“Summer setting” - “Winter setting” depending on the
position of the mode knob.
6. Check the correct operation of the timer (if tted) and all other
system controls. Operate each control separately and check
that the main burner responds.
WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEM
1. With the system COLD, check that the initial pressure
is correct to the system design requirements.
For pre-pressurised systems, this should be 1.0 bar.
2. With the system HOT, examine all water connections
for soundness. The system pressure will increase
with temperature rise but should not exceed 2.5 bar.
3. With the system still hot, turn off the gas, water and
electricity supplies to the boiler and drain down to
complete the ushing process.
Note: A ushing solution should be used during the
ushing procedure. Flushing solutions: Fernox
Superoc, Sentinel X300 (new systems) or X400
(existing systems). Refer to Frame 5.
4. Rell and vent the system, add inhibitor (see Frame
5), clear all air locks and again check for water
soundness.
5. Reset the system initial pressure to the design
requirement.
6. Balance the system. Refer to Frame 4.
7. Check the condensate drain for leaks and check that
it is discharging correctly.
WATER TEMPERATURES
Temperatures can be selected using the CH and DHW thermostats.

8. Finally, set the controls to the User’s requirements.
Notes.
1. If the pump has not operated in the last 24 hours it will run
briey to prevent seizure
2. If the diverter valve has not operated in the last 24 hours
it will be operated briey to prevent seizure. These two
operations will not occur at the same time.
Note. The temperature displayed “XXºC” is that
measured at that moment, not the set temperature.
Due to system variations and seasonal temperature
uctuations DHW ow rates/temperature rise will vary, requiring
adjustment at the draw off tap : the lower the rate the higher the
temperature, and vice versa.
