SHUTTING DOWN THE BRADFORD WHITE BRUTE
It may sometimes be necessary to shut down the Bradford White Brute. Here are the steps
required to do this:
1. Switch off the main electrical disconnect switch.
2. Open the front cover and close the main manual gas valve.
3. If freezing is anticipated, drain the Bradford White Brute. (Also be sure to protect the
piping in the building from freezing.)
The steps listed above may require qualied service personnel.
RESTARTING THE BRADFORD WHITE BRUTE
It may be necessary to restart the Bradford White Brute – for example, after a power
interruption. Here are the steps required to do this:
1 Reset any errors using the user interface. See the section on “About Lockouts, Holds,
and Alerts.”
B
RADFORD WHITE
2 Turn up the thermostat to call for heat.
3. In approximately 2 seconds, the blower will operate. Ignition should occur after 35-40
seconds. It may take as long as 2-1/2 minutes.
4. If ignition does not occur, wait 5 minutes and then repeat steps 1 through 3.
5. If, after three attempts, the unit still does not light, shut down the boiler and call your
service technician.
If the unit has been drained, follow these steps:
1. See the “Installation and Operation Manual” for instructions on lling and purging the
unit.
2. Remove the front door. Turn on the gas shutoff valve.
3. Switch on the main electrical disconnect switch. The pump and blower will start, and
the igniter will be energized. After 35 seconds the gas valve will be energized, and
ignition will occur. If ignition does not occur within 2-1/2 minutes switch “off” the
main disconnect switch, wait 5 minutes and switch it “on” again. If after three attempts
ignition does not occur, shut down the unit and call for service.
IN THE EVENT OF POWER FAILURE
The Bradford White Brute will not operate during an electrical power outage. If there is
an extended power outage with danger of freezing, then the Bradford White Brute (and all
other water systems) should be completely drained. Before draining the unit, turn off the
gas and turn off the main power switch. When you replace the unit in service, refer to the
“Installation and Operation Manual” for instructions on lling and purging.

User Interface
The Bradford White Brute has two control components:
• the User Interface or HMI (“Human/ Machine Interface”).
• the On/Off switch
The User Interface (HMI) is used to send commands to the boiler controller and to
display operating and setup information sent from the boiler controller.
The drawing below shows the main parts of the user interface (HMI), and the following
table lists the functions of the various parts of the user interface (HMI).

When the boiler is operating normally, the boiler controller will display the Home Screen on the
display. Or you can press the Home Screen Button at any time to get to this Home Screen.
Home Screen
The Home Screen has three sections:
• The upper section of this screen shows the most important operating information. In
this example, the display is showing the system setpoint, the operating temperature,
the outlet and inlet temperatures for the water entering and leaving the boiler, and the
outdoor temperature.
(Note that the ve lines at the top of the screen are customizable, and may be arranged
differently on your system.)
• The central section shows some additional operating and setup information. In this
case, this area lists the boiler name, boiler state, current demand, and the current
password level (the “access status”).
• The lower section shows any current lockouts, holds, or alerts.

ABOUT LOCKOUTS, HOLDS, AND ALERTS
The system responds to three kinds of trouble indications:
• A”lockout” is caused by a serious problem that might involve a safety issue. Once
the controller enters a lockout, the burner will shut down, and will not be allowed
to run again until the cause of the problem is corrected, and you reset the control
system.
• The system may enter a “hold” for a period of time before locking out. This allows
the controller to see if the error becomes resolved prior to the hard lockout.
• An “alert” indicates that some feature of the control system’s operation was not
correct, delayed, or waiting for a response. This does not necessarily indicate a
problem.
If a problem occurs, the system will present a note across the bottom of the screen:
Page 10
Example - Lockout or Hold Indication
Correct the problem, then press the round OK button to reset the control.
Each error message includes a number. For a more detailed description of each message,
see the “Installation and Operation Manual.”

GENERAL CARE
Keep the area around the Bradford White Brute clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline and other ammable vapors and liquids. Clean the jacket surfaces
with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use ammable cleaning materials. Keep the
vent terminal free of obstructions. Do not pile snow against the vent terminal.
ANNUAL INSPECTION AND SERVICE
You should visually inspect the vent pipe once a year. Should any corrosion or leaks
exist, have the affected parts replaced.
Once each year a qualied service agency should conduct a detailed inspection of all ue
product carrying areas of the boiler and vent system. Follow the service instructions in
the “Installation and Operating Instructions Manual” for the Bradford White Brute.
Caution
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualied service technician to inspect the
boiler. Any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water must be replaced.

RADFORD WHITE
WARNING
If the unit overheats or the gas supply fails to shut off, do
not turn off or disconnect the electrical supply to the pump.
Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the
Bradford White Brute.
En cas de surchauffe ou si l’admission de gaz ne peut être
coupée, ne pas couper ni débrancher l’alimentation électrique
de la pompe. Fermer plutôt le robinet d’admission de gaz à
l’extérieur de l’appareil.
