4.17 Protecting the heating installation against
frost
4.17.1 Frost protection function
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to frost.
The frost protection function cannot guaran-
tee flow through the entire heating installa-
tion, which means that parts of the heating
installation may freeze and therefore become
damaged.
▶ During a period of frost, ensure that the
heating installation remains in operation
and that all rooms are sufficiently heated,
even when you are away.
Note
To keep the frost protection devices active, you
should switch your product on and off using the
controller, if one is provided.
If the heating flow temperature falls below 5 °C when the
on/off button is on, the product comes into operation and
heats the circulating water to approx. 30 °C on both the heat-
ing side and the hot water side (if available).
4.17.2 Draining the heating installation
You can guarantee frost protection during very long switch-
off times by draining the heating installation and the product
completely.
▶ Consult a competent person about this.
5 Troubleshooting
5.1 Detecting and rectifying faults
▶ If faults occur, proceed in accordance with the table in

6.2 Caring for the product
Caution.
Risk of material damage caused by un-
suitable cleaning agents.
▶ Do not use sprays, scouring agents, de-
tergents, solvents or cleaning agents that
contain chlorine.
▶ Clean the casing with a damp cloth and a little solvent-
free soap.
6.3 Reading maintenance messages
If the symbol is shown on the display, the product requires
maintenance work.
The product is not in fault mode but continues to operate.
▶ Consult a competent person about this.
▶ If the water pressure is flashing at the same time, simply
add more heating water.
6.4 Checking the condensate drain pipework
and tundish
The condensate drain pipework and tundish must always be
penetrable.
▶ Regularly check the condensate drain pipework and tun-

You must not be able to see or feel any obstructions in the
condensate drain pipework and tundish.
▶ If you notice a fault, have it rectified by a competent per-
son.
