will then start if beat is
required.
The

and controls the
room temperature according to the temperature selected
on

the
temperature of

water
in
the central
heating circuit,
NOT
of
domestic hot water.
On
this setting your

(OFF).
·
On
turning the room thermostat or boiler
thermostat to
a higher setting, the boiler
may
not fire immediately.
This
is
due
to the
integral
"anti-cycling" device
in
the boiler
preventing rapid
on
and
off operation of
the boiler.
[SHUTTING • CARE AND FROST PROTECTION
Note:
If outdoor temperatures
are
low,
the high
efficiency of the
f1ppliance
(energy
saving)
may
lead tovapourformation

ternal terminal of the
flue duct. This
is
a
normal
physical phenomenon!
