The temperature of the hot w
ater to the taps can be adjusted by using the hot w
ater temperature control b
uttons
(items 4 and 5 in Fig. 1) to the required v
alue shown on the displa
y in °C.
When a tap is opened the display will indicate the temper
ature of water in the boiler heating the tap w
ater and not
the actual water temper
ature to the tap.
Attention:
Water at a temper
ature greater than 50°C can cause ser
ious bur
ns. Alw
ays chec
k the water temper
ature before use
.
The temperature of the centr
al heating water can be adjusted b
y using the heating temperature control b
uttons (items 6 and
7 in Fig. 1).
When the heating is on the temper
ature of the water lea
ving the boiler to the radiators will be displa
yed.
If an exter
nal weather compensation probe is fitted, indicated b
y the
symbol (item 12 in Fig. 1) in the displa
y, it will
automatically var
y the temperature of the w
ater in the radiators and on a mild da
y the radiators will not f
eel as hot as on a
cold day, this is nor
mal and not a fault with the boiler or heating circuit.
The room temper
ature will still be maintained as set
by the room ther
mostat.
When an exter
nal weather sensor is fitted, the centr
al heating temperature control b
uttons (items 6 and 7 in Fig. 1) will no
longer adjust the flow temper
ature in °C, instead the displa
y will show a scale of 1 to 9.
Each number corresponds to a line
on the graph in Fig 2 i.e
. line 6 will giv
e a flow temper
ature of 60°C when the exter
nal temperature is 10°C
.
Note:
This is the temper
ature of the water supplied to the r
adiators and not the desired room temperature
. The time and
temperature will still be maintained according to the setting of the room ther
mostat.

FILL AND PRESSURISE THE SYSTEM
The system pressure when cold should be 1 bar i.e. within the g
reen section of the pressure gauge.
Evok
e models should have a filling loop fitted b
y the installer located in the pipew
ork belo
w the boiler.
Do not attempt to fill or pressurise the system while the system is hot - wait for it to cool.
The filling loop will have a tap connection at either end.These taps should nor
mally be in the closed position 90° to the tap
housing.
T o fill or pressur
ise the system open one tap fully by tur
ning it 90° anticlockwise in line with the tap housing.
The second tap
should be opened a quarter of a tur
n and the water will star
t to refill the system (water should be heard filling the system).
Y ou should see the pressure gauge (item 8 in Fig.
1) rise bac
k up into the green area on the pressure gauge betw
een 1 bar
and 1.5 bar pressure.
Observe the reading on the pressure gauge and close the tap when the pointer is in the upper g
reen section just above 1 bar
.
It is normal f
or the pressure to rise abo
ve the g
reen section when the heating is on as the system expands
.
If the system is overfilled and the pressure is g
reater than the green section when cold the pressure can be reduced b
y
carefully venting some w
ater from a radiator
.
