Helpful Suggestions
To get the most out of your boiler, we have provided you with some use­ful advice on proper use and maintenance:
RFFI SYSTEM
FILLING LOOP
Filling Instructions
- Periodically check the system pressure using the pressure gauge “F”
and make sure that the pressure is between 1.0 and 1.5 bar when the system is off and cool. If the pressure is below the minimum recom­mended value, the pressure must be brought into the acceptable range. To refill the system, it will be necessary to connect the flexible

two black quarter turn handles, water will now be heard passing into the appliance and the black needle on the pressure gauge will start to rise. Once the pressure gauge
“F” reads 1.5 bar close the valves again and disconnect the flexible hose. If the pressure level drops on a frequent basis, it is likely that there is a water leak in the system. If this is the case, your installer must inspect the system.

damp cloth, do not use abrasive cleaners. The control panel can be wiped with either a damp or dry cloth. Spray polishes must not be used on the control panel surface or knobs. Care must be taken in preventing any liquid entering the appliance.
- If the water is exceptionally hard, install a water softener so that the efficiency of the boiler remains the same over time, as this will con­sume less gas.
- To improve comfort levels and take full advantage of the heat pro­duced by the boiler, it is necessary that a room thermostat and an out­door sensor be installed.

Winter and Summer Operating Modes
In the “Winter”
operating mode, the boiler will produce both
Central Heating and Domestic Hot Water. In the “
Summer” oper­ating mode, the boiler will produce only Domestic Hot Water. Using the knob on the control panel, the user can select “winter” or “summer” operating mode. Keeping the knob
“C” at the “ ” position selects the “summer” operating mode. “Winter” operating mode may be selected by positioning the knob “C” between the
C
C
min. and max. settings.
Note: The
“Summer” mode is only available for MFFI models.
External (room) thermostat control
C
If an external (room) thermostat is installed, it is recommended that the temperature of the Central Heating system be set by means of the knob
“C”, leaving it at max in order to obtain the best performance from the boiler and to allow the regulation of the room temperature to function efficiently.
Setting the hot water for domestic use (MFFI only)
C
Both in the winter and summer mode, the temperature of the Domestic Hot Water may be adjusted by using knob
“E”. A deliv­ery temperature for the water may be chosen in a range from 36˚C to about 56˚C

Boiler Shutdown
The boiler is equipped with safety devices which intervene in certain situations to shutdown the boiler. Some of these situa­tions are signalled by the boiler and can be corrected by the user.

4. USEFUL INFORMATION
Shutdown Due to Ignition Failure
his anomaly is indicated by “A01”on the display. To reset the
T boiler, press and then release the reset button . At this point, the electronic ignition system will attempt to light the burner again.
hould the boiler fail to ignite a second time, check that the
S external gas cock is open. If the problem persists, contact an Authorised Service Centre.
hutdown Due to Overheating
S
This anomaly is indicated by “A 03” on the display. The boiler has shutdown because the safety thermostat detected that the boiler temperature has exceeded the maximum limit.
o reset this state, wait until the boiler has cooled and press
T the button. If the safety thermostat operates on a frequent basis, contact an Authorised Service Centre.
Shutdown Due to Insufficient Water Circulation
This anomaly is indicated by “A 02” on the display. One of the possible causes of this shutdown situation could be the
ack of water in the boiler or water circulation failure in the primary
l heating circuit. Check the system pressure on the pressure gauge
“F” and, if it is less than 0.5 bar, try bringing the system pressure up to a mean value of 1.0 bar by opening the water inlet valve (see page 6 for further instructions). Then reset by pressing the button.
Other Shutdown Situations
Should a shutdown situation indicated on the left display by the
letter E (E 04, E 05, E06, .....etc.) occur, contact an Authorised
Service Centre. If instead the display shows one of the shutdown situations indi­cated by the following letters and figures, A 07, A 33, A 97, A 98, A 99, try resetting the boiler by pressing the reset button . If the boiler shuts off again, contact an Authorised Service Centre.
Anti-frost device
The anti-frost function acts on the central heating flow tempera­ture probe, independently from other regulations, when the elec­trical supply is turned on. If the primary circuit temperature falls below 8°C the pump will run for 2 minutes. After the two minutes of circulation (fixed) the boiler will check the following: a) if the central heating flow temperature is > 8°C, the pump stops; b) if the central heating flow temperature is between 3 and 8°C,
or another two minutes;
the pump will r
un f c) if the central heating flow temperature is < 3°C, the burner will fire (heating position) at minimum power until the temperature reaches 33°C, the burner will go out and the pump will continue to run for two minutes. If the flow temperature remains between 3-8°C the pump will con­tinue to run for two minutes for a maximum of 10 times unless a temperature above 8°C is detected in the central heating flow, after this the the burner will fire. If lockout is caused by overheat the burner is kept OFF.
NOTE: In all cases, the circulation takes place in the central heating system. The anti-frost device activates only when (with the boiler oper­ating correctly):
- the system pressure is correct;
- the boiler is electr
ically pow
ered;
- there is a supply of gas.

Status
NOTE: the time clock is for central heating control only.
The time clock is provided with 96 switches, called riders, each of which covers a time interval of 15 minutes (four per hour).
hen a rider is switched from the inside (off setting) to the outside
W of the clock border (on setting), the circuit is closed (switch on) for a period of 15 minutes and then the boiler starts if the room ther­mostat (if installed) or the heating thermostat require heat (heat-
ng function on).
i
EXAMPLE
To set the heating of your home in the time interval from 7.00
m to 8.00 am and from 7.00 pm to 10.00 pm every day (see
a diagram):
- rotate the outer ring of the clock in a clockwise direction until the correct time of day (24h) lines up with the arrow on the clock (at approx. 2 o’clock position);
-
under no circumstances should the minute hand be moved manually
;
- make sure all the switches, i.e. the riders, are placed on the inside of the clock border;
- pull outward the riders for 7.00 am and 8.00 am, and then all rid­ers between these two;
- repeat this for 7.00 pm and 10.00 pm. Other heating intervals may be set in the same way.
The clock is provided with a selector switch with three positions (see figure):
Position “I” CONSTANT: in this position, the clock circuit is
1. always closed (switch on), therefore the boiler will constantly be on and will only shut off upon the request of the room ther
mo-
stat (if installed) or the heating thermostat;
6. DIGITAL PROGRAMMER
Position “O” HEATING OFF: in this position, the clock circuit is
2. always open (switch off) and the boiler will therefore never ignite for heating;
3.
“Central” Position
PROGRAMMING ACTIVE: in this position,
the programming set by the user is active.
Operating the time switch
The steps marked with the symbol “ ” are necessary to carry out a switching program.
Preparing f
or Operation
Activate the “Res” switch (=RESET) to reset the time switch to its default setting (activate using a pencil or similar pointed instrument). Do this:
