Maintenance tips
• Appliances on a sealed heating system:
– Regularly check the system pressure.
• Do not obstruct the flue outlet or the air inlet.
• Use in hard water areas:
– In exceptionally hard water areas a device to prevent scale
formation may be fitted. Installation of a salt based water sof tener
should be in accordance with the requirements of the local water
company. A bypass valve must be fitted and used to fill/top up the
heating system with untreated water.
3 Prepare for operation
3.1 Open vented heating system
Appliances that can be connected to open vented heating systems will
have the pressure maintained automatically by the header tank feeding
the system.
3.2 Sealed heating system
Appliances that can be connected to sealed heating systems are prepressurised before operation, this pressure must be maintained for safe
use of the appliance.
▶ Check regularly that the pressure is maintained.
▶ Re-charge the system if the display reads less than 1 bar.
▶ If a permanent significant decrease or increase in pressure is
indicated on the display, contact your installer or maintenance
engineer.
3.2.1 Checking the system pressure
If the pressure is too low (≤ 0.2 bar) the system is out of operation and
the warning notification LoPr alternating with the actual pressure stays
on the screen.
Important note:
▶ If you have to add water regularly in your heating system, call a
competent, qualified person.
2.4 Benchmark standard
The Benchmark initiative is a code of practice
to encourage the correct installation,
commissioning and servicing of domestic
central heating appliances and system
equipment.
A “checklist” is dispatched with every appliance and can be found
towards the back of the Installation, Commissioning and Servicing
Instructions. This is a vital document that needs to be completed by the
installer at the time of installation. It confirms that the appliance has
been installed and commissioned according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
The service record provides space for the recording of regular servicing
of the appliance/heating system and this can become a valuable
document when, for example, you wish to sell the property. The service
record will show a potential purchaser that the heating system has
received regular professional maintenance and servicing during its
lifetime.
The Benchmark initiative aims to:
• Raise standards among professional installers.
• Build and maintain high safety standards in the industry.
• Improve customer satisfaction levels.
• Make a contribution to the nation's commitment to climate change.

Falling hazard!
Failure to follow this guidance may result in personal injury.
▶ Only attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at ground level and
easily accessible.
▶ Never attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at height.
CAUTION:
Risk of damage to pipe work!
Thermal shock from boiling water can damage plastic pipes.
▶ DO NOT use boiling water to thaw the condensate pipe!
If the condensate pipe has frozen:
▶ Locate the blockage.
– It is likely that the pipe is frozen at the most exposed point outside
the building or where there is an obstruction to flow. This could be
the open end of the pipe, at a bend or elbow, or where there is a
sag in the pipe in which condensate can collect.
– The location of the blockage should be identified as closely as
possible before taking further action.
▶ Thaw the frozen pipe.
– The pipe can be thawed by applying a hot water bottle, a
microwaveable heating pack (the sort used for muscular aches
and pains) or a cloth soaked in hot water to the exterior of the
pipe, close to the point of blockage.
– Hot water, but not boiling, can also be poured onto the pipe from
a watering can or similar container.
– Care must be taken at pedestrian areas where this water may
freeze and create a slip hazard.

9 Environmental protection and disposal
Environmental protection is a fundamental corporate strategy of the
Bosch Group.
The quality of our products, their economy and environmental safety are
all of equal importance to us and all environmental protection legislation
and regulations are strictly observed.
We use the best possible technology and materials for protecting the
environment taking account of economic considerations.
Packaging
Where packaging is concerned, we participate in country-specific
recycling processes that ensure optimum recycling.
All of our packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be
recycled.
Used appliances
Used appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled.
The various assemblies can be easily dismantled. Synthetic materials are
marked accordingly. Assemblies can therefore be sorted by composition
and passed on for recycling or disposal.
Old electrical and electronic appliances
Electrical or electronic appliances that are no longer
serviceable must be collected separately and sent for
environmentally compatible recycling (in accordance with
the European Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment).
To dispose of old electrical or electronic appliances, you
should use the return and collection systems put in place in the country
concerned.
Batteries
Batteries must not be disposed together with your household waste.
Used batteries must be disposed of in local collection systems.
10 Tips on energy saving
Heating economically
The appliance provides a high level of comfort whilst keeping fuel
consumption and the environment effects as low as possible.
The appliance is controlled in such a way that it delivers heat at the
correct rate and only if there is a clear demand from the system.
Central heating systems with thermostatic radiator valves
With modern heating systems set around a 20 °C heat loss, the optimum
setting for a condensing boiler will be approximately 73 °C for the central
heating temperature. This is to ensure a return temperature of less than
52 °C.
The system must be balanced correctly and the radiators may need
upgrading. This allows the boiler to condense as much as possible for the
central heating system.
The temperature of each room can be set individually (except primary
room with the room thermostat) using the thermostatic radiator valves.
Room thermostats
Reducing the setting of the room thermostat by 1 °C can reduce fuel
consumption by up to 10%.
New control systems
Upgrade your heating control system if necessary with the latest
equipment available.
Roof insulation
Around 30% of the heat loss from a property is through the roof. Replace
any old insulation with new insulation, preferably of around 200mm
thickness or more.
Window frames
Single glazed windows, particularly those with steel frames, can lose a
great deal of heat. Consideration should be given to replacement with
PVCu or wooden framed double glazed units.
Radiators
If a radiator is sited underneath a window, its performance will be
affected if the curtains are allowed to drape over the radiator. Shelves
fitted above or in front of the radiator should also be avoided.
It is advisable to manually adjust all thermostatic radiator valves every 2
- 3 months to prevent them sticking. Ensure radiator valves are correctly
set and not damaged.
Draughts
Try to ensure that draughts around doors, windows, letter boxes and
keyholes etc. are reduced by using a suitable draught excluder.
WARNING:
Air vents!
▶ Do not block or seal any air vents that are installed to ensure that the
appliance operates safely.
Curtains
Lined curtains, or heavier full length curtains can provide excellent
insulation. However, always ensure that the curtains do not drape over
radiators.
