Instructions for Use

General Notes and Information

Please read these instructions and follow them carefully for the
safe and economical use of your boiler.

Important Notice

This boiler is for use only on G20 gas.

The convection air openings on the boiler must NEVER be
obstructed.

The Gas Safety (Installation and Use)

Regulations

In your interests and that of gas safety it is the Law that ALL gas
appliances are installed by a competent person in accordance
with the current issue of the above regulations.

Maintenance

To ensure the continued efficient and safe operation of the boiler
it is recommended that it is checked and serviced at regular
intervals. The frequency of servicing will depend upon the
particular installation and usage, but in general once a year
should be enough.

To obtain service, please call your installer, or Heatcall (Glow-
worm’s own service organisation) using the telephone number
given on the controls tray.

If the appliance is installed in a rented property there is a duty of
care imposed on the owner of the property by the current issue
of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations, Section 35.

It is the Law that servicing is carried out by a competent person.

Please be advised that the ‘Benchmark’ logbook should be
completed by the installation engineer on completion of
commissioning and servicing.

All CORGI Registered Installers carry a CORGI ID card, and
have a registration number.  Both should be recorded in your
boiler Logbook.  You can check your installer is CORGI registered
by calling CORGI direct on :- 01256 372300.

Gas Leak or Fault

If a gas leak or fault exists or is suspected the boiler must be
turned off also the electrical supply.  Advice/help should be
obtained from your installation/servicing company or the local
gas company.

Protection Against Freezing

If the boiler is to be out of use for any long period of time during
severe weather conditions we recommend that the whole of the
system, including the boiler be drained off to avoid the risk of
freezing up.  If an immersion heater is fitted in the domestic hot
water cylinder make sure that it is switched off.

If you have a sealed water system you should contact your
installer/servicing company as a sealed water system should
only be drained, refilled and pressurised by a competent person.

Boiler Clearance

The boiler must be positioned so that at least the minimum
operational and servicing clearances are provided, see diagram
1.

If fixtures are positioned close to the boiler they should be made
removable for access to pipework.

Enough space must be left in front of the boiler for servicing.

Boiler in a Compartment

If the boiler is fitted in a compartment or cupboard, purpose built
ventilation must be provided and kept clear.

Do not use the enclosed space for storage.

Boiler Identification

The type of boiler and its output can be checked against the
details inside the controls cover.

Overheat Cutoff Device

The boiler is fitted with a safety device to prevent damage
through overheating.  Should the boiler go out together with the
pilot for no apparent reason, allow the system to cool down, then
relight the boiler.

Should the problem persist, turn the boiler off and consult your
installation/servicing company.

Electrical Supply

The boiler must only be connected to a 240V~50Hz supply,
protected by a 3A fuse, maximum.
