Introduction

It is essential that the instructions in this booklet are
strictly followed, for safe and economical operation of
the boiler.

Gas safety (Installation & Use) Regulations 1994,
amendments 1996 or rules in force.

In your own interest, and that of safety, it is the law that this boiler
must be installed by a registered installer, in accordance with all
national and local regulations.

Electricity Supply

This appliance must be efficiently earthed.

Supply: 230 V ~ 50 Hz.

The fusing should be 3A.

Connection must be made in a way that allows complete
isolation of the electrical supply such as a double pole switch
having a 3mm (1/8") contact separation in both poles, or a
plug and socket, serving only the boiler and system controls.
The means of isolation must be accessible to the user after
installation.

Important notes

a. If the boiler is installed in a compartment then the compartment

MUST NOT be used for storage purposes.

b. The ventilation provided for the boiler during installation MUST

NOT be blocked, and a check should be made periodically that
the ventilation areas are free from any obstruction.

c. If it is known or suspected that a fault exists on the boiler then

it MUST NOT be used until the fault has been corrected by a
CORGI registered installer.

d. Inflammable materials must not be placed in close proximity to

the appliance. Materials giving off flammable vapours must
not be stored in the same room as the appliance.

e. Under NO circumstances should any of the sealed components

on this appliance be used incorrectly or tampered with.

TTB Downdraught thermostat

(CF boilers only)

This appliance is fitted with a TTB downdraught thermostat for
added safety and protection. If this thermostat should operate and
switch off the appliance it is because the flue is subject to
downdraught, probably as a result of adverse wind conditions.

The TTB is an automatic reset thermostat which will reset once
wind conditions have returned to normal, subject to a built-in reset
delay in excess of 10 minutes.

The TTB is an IMPORTANT SAFETY DEVICE and MUST
NOT be put out of action or interfered with in any way.

The TTB is not a substitute for an independently mounted carbon
monoxide detector.

In cases of repeated or continuous shutdown a CORGI registered
installer should be called to investigate and rectify the condition
causing this and carry out an operational test after each intervention
on the device. Only the manufacturer's original parts should be
used for replacement.

Minimum clearances

A clearance of 533mm (21") MUST be available at the front of the
boiler for servicing.

The minimum clearances given in Table 1 MUST be complied with,
in order to maintain the safe running of the boiler.
