temperature adjustment: 

Note the scale on the edge 

of the plastic wheel (corresponds to the scale on the 

knob) and the index on the cover. Lift the plastic wheel 
approximately 10 mm (see fig 18). Turn anti-clockwise 
to reduce the temperature and clockwise to increase it. 
Carefully push the plastic wheel down so that the teeth 
engage, every tooth movement is equivalent to approx. 
3°C change in temperature. 

.

  Fit the spring, knob and screw. Turn the knob to the stop 

position, switch on the main switch/insert fuse. Start and 

test-run the boiler at max temp (knob in position 7) with

1.

  Remove the lower front plate (see fig 12). 

.

  Unfasten the springs (fig 13 A) which hold the sensor (fig 

13 B) and overheating protection (fig 13 C) to the boiler 
casing.

.

  Unwind the sensor from the overheating protection.

.

  Slacken the nuts on the thermo-element (fig 19 A) a 

couple of turns in the joint nipple (fig 19 B) below the 

automatic unit and then pull the overheating protection 

straight out of the joint nipple (see fig 20). Check that 
the joint metal is free from oxidation, if necessary clean 
or replace it.

.

  Fit the new overheating protection into the joint nipple. 

Tighten the nuts from the thermo element, but not too 
much. Check that the cables for the overheating protec

tion are not lying against the gas pipe. 

.

  Wind the sensor wire round the new overheating protec-

tion and attach the sensor with spring in the recess in 

the boiler casing. Check that there is heat - conducting 
paste on the sensor. 

7.

  Tilt the overheating protection at the top and push it 

down into the holder. Attach it with the spring.
