of the boiler as shown on the appliance data plate.
The Benchmark Scheme
Sime Ltd is a licensed member of the Benchmark Scheme which aims to improve the standards of installation and
commissioning of domestic heating and hot water systems in the UK and to encourage regular servicing to optimise safety, efficiency and performance.
Benchmark is managed and promoted by the Heating and Hotwater Industry Council.
For more information visit www
.centralheating.co.uk
Please ensure that the installer has fully completed the Benchmark Checklist on the inside back pages of the
installation instructions supplied with the product and that you have signed it to say that you have received a full
and clear explanation of its operation.
The installer is legally required to complete a commissioning checklist as a means of complyng with the appropriate Building Regulations (England and Wales).
All installations must be notified to Local Area Building Control either directly or through a Competent Persons
Scheme.
A Building Regulations Compliance Certificate will then be issued to the customer who should, on receipt, write the
Notification Number on the Benchmark Checklist.
This product should be serviced regularly to optimise its safety, efficiency and performance.
The service engineer should complete the relevant Service Record on the Benchmark Checklist after each service.
The Benchmark Checklist may be required in the event of any warranty work and as supporting documentation
relating to home improvements in the optional documents section of the Home Information Pack.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER
THE GAS SAFETY (INSTALLATION AND
USE) REGULATIONS 1996. It is the law
that all gas appliances are installed by
a registered person, in accordance
with the above regulations. Failure to
install appliances correctly could lead
to prosecution. It is in your own interest, and that of safety, to ensure that
the law is complied with.
It is essential that the appliance is
correctly earthed. An electricity supply of 240 V - 50 Hz fused at 3 A is
required.
Read these instructions carefully
before attempting to operate the appliance.
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The Sime “METROPOLIS DGT 25 BF”
is a fully automatic, wall mounted,
room sealed, fan assisted range of
combination boilers. When operating
in winter mode, the appliance provides
central heating as required and produces instantaneous hot water upon
demand.
When operating in summer mode, the
central heating is not operational however the appliance continues to supply
hot water whenever it is required.
1.2 APPLIANCE OPERATION
A demand of hot water will be sensed
by the appliance detecting water flow
(providing that the flow rate is above 2
l/m - 0.5 gal/min).
The fan will start
and the burner will light at full output.
If the draw off rate is near the maxi-
mum design flow rate the appliance
will run continuously at full output
until a tap is either turned off or the
flow rate is reduced in which case
the heat output will reduce accordingly to maintain a steady temperature.
Hot water is made available almost
immediately at the appliance outlet,
but the final temperature and time
taken for the hot water to reach a tap
depends upon the potentiometer setting, the rate at which water is drawn
off, and the length of the pipe between
the boiler and the tap.
When the tap is turned off, the appliance will revert to C.H. mode (if set on
winter position) otherwise the burner
will be extinguished pending the next
demand for hot water.
1.3 LIGHTING AND OPERATION
1.3.1 BOILER IGNITION (fig. 25)
The first ignition of the boiler must be carried out by qualified technical personnel.
When it is necessary to restart the boiler
follow this procedure.
Ensure the gas supply is turned on.
Turn on the electrical supply, a green LED
illuminate.
After a delay of 30 seconds the boiler
should resume operation.
Winter
Press the key of the controls to activate the winter mode functioning (heating and
D.H.W.). The display will be as shown below.
Summer
Press the key of the controls to activate
the summer mode functioning (only the production D.H.W.). The display will be as shown below.
Fig. 25
ATTENTION: Use the keys to alter the value of any function, a beep indicates
that a change was accepted. The display will remain lit for 15 minutes(PAR 5
default).
KEYS LOCK: if the device is not used, the keys will be locked 15 minutes after the last setting was made (PAR 5 by
default) and the display light switches off.
To set one of the operating modes, press any of the keys for more than two seconds (the display will indicate one to
four segments progressively before unlocking the controls).
1.3.2 REGULATION OF THE WATER
TEMPERATURE FOR HEATING
(fig. 26)
To set the temperature of the central heating, press the key of the controls .
The display will be as shown in the figure.
Change the values with the key ( and
). Standard display will return by pressing the key again, or after 10 seconds
if no key is pressed.
Regulation of the external sensor
If an external sensor is installed, the value
of the output temperature is automatically
chosen by the system, which quickly adjusts
the of flow temperature on the basis of the
external temperature.
If you wish to change the value of the temperature, increasing or decreasing that calculated automatically by the electronic
card, proceed as indicated in the preceding
paragraph.
The level of various correction of a value of
temperature proportional calculated. The
display will be as shown in fig. 26/a.
1.3.3 REGULATION OF THE D.H.W.
TEMPERATURE (fig. 27)
To set the desired temperature D.H.W.,
press the key of the controls.
The display will be as shown in the figure.
Change the values with the key ( and )
.
The display will return by pressing the key
again, or after 10 seconds if no key is
pressed.
1.3.4 TO SWITCH OFF THE BOILER
(fig. 28)
In the case of a short absence, press more
than two seconds the standby key . The
display will be as shown in figure (boiler in
stand-by). In this way, leaving the electricity
and the gas supply connected, the boiler is
protected from frost and from the pump
becoming jammed.
If the boiler is not used for a prolonged
period, it is advisable to disconnect the
electricity supply, by switching off the main
switch of the system, and to close the gas
tap and, if low temperatures are expected,
to completely drain the hydraulic circuits to
avoid frost damage.
NOTE:
On mobile and park homes the heating circuit may be filled with a antifreeze solution.
It will not be necessary to drain the heating
circuit provided that the solution is of the
correct concentration.

1.4 ERRORS AND SOLUTIONS
When there is a functioning error, the
display controls shows and red led.
Descriptions of the anomalies with the relative alarms and solutions are given below:
– AL 01 (fig. 29)
Press the key of the controls to restart the boiler.
If the error persists, request the attention of qualified technical personnel.
– AL 02
If the water pressure detected is lower
than 0.5 bar, the boiler will stop and the
display will show “AL 02”.
Using the external filling loop, re-pressurise the boiler to between 1and 1.2 bar.
Constantly having to re-pressurise the
system would indicate a leak on the
system. This should be investigated and
corrected as soon as possible, and if
required the antifreeze solution checked.
