Boiler Taps & Connections, as viewed from underneath

3.1 Central Heating System Pressure

1. The water pressure in the central heating system is indicated by the pressure gauge.

2. With the system cold and the boiler not operating the pressure should be at least 0.5 bar. During operation the pressure should not exceed 2.5 bar, and will normally be between 1.0 and 2.0 (Fig. 1).

3. A pressure of 3 or greater indicates a fault. The safety pressure relief valve will operate at a pressure of 3 (Fig. 3). It

is important that your Installer or Service Engineer is contacted as soon as possible.

4. The minimum pressure for correct operation is 0.5. If the pressure falls below 0.5, this may indicate a leak on the central heating system (Fig. 2).

3.2 To Repressurise the System

1. The procedure is for the optional filling loop kit when fitted. However, even if your boiler has an external loop, the principle is similar.

2. Look at the boiler from underneath. There will be two taps at the end of copper pipes, one with a blanking cap on the end. Do not operate these taps yet.

3. Your installer will have left a metal braided hose (the ‘filling loop’) with you for safe keeping.

4. This loop MUST be connected to the taps. Remove the blanking cap and set aside.

5. Connect the loop to the taps with the wing nuts. These should be hand tightened.

6. Carefully open the handles on both taps and check the boiler pressure gauge. Once the needle on the gauge is above the 0.5 mark both taps can be closed.

7. Undo the two wing nuts, remove the loop and refit the blanking cap. Put the loop in a safe place for future use.

4.0 Fault Indication

4.1 Fault Indication

1. Your Main Combi 24 HE has three neon indicators. The upper two function as boiler on and fault indicators.

2. Depending on the nature of the fault the upper two neons will illuminate, go off or flash.

3. There are five possible combinations, each indicating one or more fault conditions. These are described below.

The flue or flue terminal is blocked or obstructed in some way, or there is an internal fault.

If there is no external blockage of the flue that can be easily removed contact your Installer or Service Engineer.

The circulating pump is faulty or the system pressure has dropped. Check the system pressure (see page 7). If the pressure is in the normal range a pump fault is indicated. Contact your Installer or Service Engineer.

A fault on the boiler temperature sensor is indicated. Contact your Installer or Service Engineer.

The primary system or the boiler has overheated. Allow the boiler to cool. Turn the selector switch fully anti-clockwise against the spring pressure to the ‘Reset’ position and hold for at least 2 seconds.

If this occurs repeatedly contact your Installer or Service Engineer.

If the boiler does not relight after resetting it is possible that the flue has overheated. Contact your Installer or Service Engineer.

The burner has failed to light, or incomplete lighting of the burner has occurred. Turn the selector switch fully anticlockwise against the spring pressure to the ‘Reset’ position and hold for at least 2 seconds.

If this occurs repeatedly contact your Installer or Service Engineer.

If the boiler does not relight after resetting blockage of the condensate drain or trap has occurred. Contact your Installer or Service Engineer.

5.1 For your Safety

1. This appliance must have been installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and the regulations in force.

2. Any modification that may interfere with the normal operation of the appliance without express written permission from the manufacturer or his agent could invalidate the appliance warranty. In GB this could also infringe the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations.

3. Your boiler must not be operated without the casing correctly fitted.

4. Do not interfere with any sealed components on this boiler.

5. Take note of any warning labels on your boiler.

6. Your boiler should have the following minimum clearances for Safety and Maintenance (Fig. 34):-

Top - 200mm Bottom - 200mm Left side - 5mm Right Side - 5mm Front - 5mm (In Operation)

- 450mm (For Servicing)

* NOTE: The boiler can be operated with a clearance of 5mm at the right. This is also sufficient for routine maintenance. However a clearance of 20mm is required if it is necessary to remove the secondary heat exchanger. This should be considered when siting the appliance and in the event of any subsequent alteration in the area of installation.

7. If your boiler is installed in a compartment, do not use it for storage purposes. Do not obstruct any purpose provided ventilation openings.

8. Flammable materials must not be stored in close proximity to your boiler.

9. Avoid skin contact when your boiler is in operation, as some surfaces may get hot e.g. pipework.

10. Ensure that the flue terminal, outside the house, does not become damaged or obstructed, particularly by foliage.

11. It is important that the condensate drain system is not blocked, modified or damaged in any way as this would affect the operation of your boiler. Your installer should have insulated any exposed pipework.

5.2 Cleaning the Outer case

The painted panels should be wiped with a damp cloth and then dried completely. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE

CLEANING AGENTS.
