4.15 Guaranteeing the correct filling pressure of
the heating installation
4.15.1 Checking the filling pressure of the heating
installation
Note
To ensure that the heating installation operates
smoothly, the filling pressure when the heating
installation is cold must be between 0.1 MPa and
0.2 MPa (1.0 bar and 2.0 bar) or lie between the
two dashed lines in the bar graph display.
If the heating installation extends over several
storeys, a higher filling pressure may be required
for the heating installation. Ask a competent person for details.
If the filling pressure in the heating installation
falls below 0.05 MPa (0.5 bar), then the product
switches off. The display alternates between the
fault message F.22 and the current filling pressure.
In addition, the symbol appears after approx.
one minute.
1.
Press twice.
◁ The current filling pressure (1) is shown in the
display, along with the permissible filling pressure
range.
2. Check the filling pressure in the display.
1 / 2
System pressure: 0.1 … 0.2 MPa (1.0 … 2.0 bar)
The filling pressure is in the intended pressure range.
2 / 2
Filling pressure: < 0.08 MPa (< 0.80 bar)
▶ Fill the heating installation. (→ Page 10)
◁ If you have topped up the installation with suf-
ficient heating water, the display automatically
disappears after 20 seconds.
4.15.2 Filling the heating installation
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to heating
water that is extremely calciferous or corrosive or contaminated by chemicals.
Unsuitable tap water damages the seals
and diaphragms, blocks components in the
product and heating installation through
which the water flows and causes noise.
▶ Only fill the heating installation with suit-
able heating water.
1. Ask a competent person where the filling cock is located.
2. Connect the filling tap to a heating water supply in the
way you were told by the competent person.
3. Open all radiator valves (thermostatic radiator valves) of
the heating installation.
4. Open the heating water supply.
5. Turn the filling cock on slowly and allow water to flow in
until the required filling pressure has been reached.
6. Close the heating water supply.
7. Purge all radiators.
8. Check the filling pressure in the display.
9. Top up with more water if necessary.
10. Close the filling cock.
11. Go back to the Basic display (→ Page 7).
4.16 Switching off the product's functions
4.16.1 Switching off hot water generation
Applicability: Product with hot water generation through external domestic
hot water cylinder
1. To switch off cylinder charging without switching off
heating mode, press ( ).

2.
Use the button to set the heating flow temperature to
Heating off.
3.
Confirm by pressing .
◁ Heating mode is switched off
◁
The symbol appears in the display.
4.17 Protecting the heating installation against
frost
4.17.1 Frost protection function
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to frost.
The frost protection function cannot guarantee flow through the entire heating installation, which means that parts of the heating
installation may freeze and therefore become
damaged.
▶ During a period of frost, ensure that the
heating installation remains in operation
and that all rooms are sufficiently heated,
even when you are away.
Note
To keep the frost protection devices active, you
should switch your product on and off using the
controller, if one is provided.
If the heating flow temperature falls below 5 °C when the
on/off button is on, the product comes into operation and
heats the circulating water to approx. 30 °C on both the heating side and the hot water side (if available).
4.17.2 Draining the heating installation
Another way to protect the heating installation and the
product from frost for very long switch-off times is to drain
them completely.
▶ Consult a competent person about this.
5 Detecting and rectifying faults
▶ If faults occur, proceed in accordance with the table in
the appendix.
Troubleshooting (→ Page 13)
▶ If you are unable to eliminate the faults using the spe-
cified measures, if fault messages (F.xx) are displayed,
or if the product does not function correctly, contact a
competent person.

7 Care and maintenance
7.1 Maintenance
An annual inspection and biennial maintenance of the
product carried out by a competent person is a prerequisite
for ensuring that the product is permanently ready and
safe for operation, reliable, and has a long service life. The
inspection may require maintenance to be carried out earlier,
depending on the results.
7.2 Caring for the product
▶ Clean the casing with a damp cloth and a little solvent-
free soap.
▶ Do not use sprays, scouring agents, detergents, solvents
or cleaning agents that contain chlorine.
7.3 Reading maintenance messages
If the symbol is shown in the display, the product requires
maintenance work. The product is not in fault mode; it continues to operate.
▶ Consult a competent person.
▶ If the water pressure is flashing at the same time, simply
add more heating water.
7.4 Checking the condensate drain pipework
and tundish
The condensate drain pipework and tundish must always be
penetrable.
▶ Regularly check the condensate drain pipework and tun-
dish for faults and, particularly, for blockages.
You must not be able to see or feel any obstructions in the
condensate drain pipework and tundish.
▶ If you notice a fault, have it rectified by a competent per-
son.

Fault Cause Measure
Product does not start
up:
– No hot water
– Heating remains cold
The gas isolator cock installed on-site and/or the gas
isolator cock on the product is closed.
Open both gas isolator cocks.
The cold water stop valve is closed. Open the cold water stop valve.
The power supply in the building is disconnected. Check the fuse in the building. The product
switches on automatically when the power is
restored.
The product is switched off. Switch on the product (→ "Switching on the
product" section).
The heating flow temperature is set too low or to the
Heating off position, and/or the hot water temperature
is set too low.
Set the heating flow temperature and hot water
temperature (→ "Setting the heating flow temperature" section/→ "Setting the hot water temperature" section).
The system pressure is insufficient.
Low water pressure in the heating installation (fault message: F.22).
Fill the heating installation (→ "Filling the heating
installation" section).
There is air in the heating installation. Have your competent person purge the heating
installation.
After three unsuccessful attempts to ignite the flame, the
product switches to fault mode (fault message: F.28).
Press the reset button for one second. The
product makes another attempt to ignite the
flame.
If you have been unable to eliminate the ignition
fault after three reset attempts, consult a competent person.
