Operating the boiler
3.1.1 Setting the boiler flow temperature
1. Turn the central heating temperature control knob to the desired level.
The temperature range available is between 30 and 82°C. This not the room temperature but the flow temperature through the
radiators.
The “click” point provides guidance for the maximum temperature setting for optimum energy efficiency.
2. When there is a demand for heat from the boiler, the burner indicator will be illuminate to indicate that the boiler is firing.
The blue operational/fault light will also be illuminated, to confirm that the boiler is operational.

Central heating temperature control
▶ Comfort levels within rooms should be controlled by your thermostatic radiator valves and/or room thermostat.
3.1.2 Boiler frost protection
If you are leaving your property unoccupied during cold weather, please leave your programmer on constant and your room
thermostat set to 15°C.
▶ If the temperature within the boiler falls below 8°C the pump will run to circulate water and prevent the system freezing.
– If the temperature does not rise to 9°C within 30 minutes of the pump operating, the boiler will fire up to provide heat to
bring the temperature up.
▶ If the temperature within the boiler falls below 5°C the boiler will fire, bringing the boiler temperature up to 12°C to avoid the
possibility of the system freezing.
▶ This process will be repeated until such time that the boiler temperature does not drop below 5°C.
3.1.3 Turning the central heating off during the summer
▶ To turn your central heating off during warm periods:
▶ Set the programmer to OFF
– Please refer to the programmer manufacturer's instructions.
