Boiler Overheat Thermostat
The boiler is fitted with a safety 'cutout' thermostat. This will shut
down the boiler in the event of overheating. Should this occur allow
the boiler to cool, press the reset button (E) then relight as detailed
in steps 1-8 in 'To light the boiler'.
If the cutout condition still persists turn off the boiler and consult a
CORGI registered installer or in IE a competent person.
Control of water temperature
1. Adjust the boiler thermostat (B) to give the required temperature
for central heating.
2. The boiler thermostat automatically switches the main burner
OFF and ON to maintain the selected temperature.
To relight the boiler
Repeat the procedure 1 - 8, detailed in 'To light the boiler'.
Loss of system water pressure
Boilers fitted with Classic Sealed System Units only
If the red arrow on the unit pressure gauge is set above zero and
the system pressure is seen to fall below this value over a period
of time then a water leak is indicated. In this event a CORGI
registered installer or in IE a competent person should be
consulted.
DO NOT OPERATE THE BOILER IF THE PRESSURE HAS
REDUCED TO ZERO FROM THE ORIGINAL SETTING.
Escape of gas
Should a gas leak be suspected contact your local gas supplier
without delay.
Do NOT search for gas leaks with a naked flame.
Cleaning
For normal cleaning simply dust with a dry cloth.
To remove stubborn marks and stains, wipe with a damp cloth
and finish off with a dry cloth.
Do NOT use abrasive cleaning materials.
Maintenance
The appliance should be serviced at least once a year by a CORGI
registered installer or in IE a competent person.
THE GAS SAFETY (INSTALLATION AND USE) REGULATIONS,
STATUTORY INSTRUMENT 1994, NO. 1886, AND AMENDMENTS
1996, IMPOSE CERTAIN LEGAL OBLIGATIONS ON GAS USERS.
All CORGI registered installers carry a CORGI ID card, and have a registration number. Both should be recorded in
your Benchmark Log Book. You can check your installer by calling CORGI direct on 01563 72300
THE LOG BOOK SHOULD BE COMPLETED AFTER EACH SERVICE AND KEPT WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Caradon Ideal Limited is a member of the Benchmark initiative and fully supports the aims of
the programme. Benchmark has been introduced to improve the standards of installation and
commissioning of central heating systems in the UK and to encourage the regular servicing of
all central heating systems to ensure safety and efficiency.
Changing gas cylinders
a. Ensure that the replacement gas cylinder is the correct one for
the installation.
b. Extinguish any fire, flame or source of ignition (including
cigarettes, pipes and pilot lights) before changing the gas
cylinders.
c. Change cylinders with caution.
d. Ensure that the gas cylinder valve(s) is/are closed before
disconnecting an empty cylinder or before removing any plastic
cap or plug on the outlet connection of the replacement cylinder.
Never use tools on cylinder valves, hand wheels or levers.
Note.
Cylinders with threaded connections have a left hand
thread. For cylinders with self-sealing clip-on valves, ensure
that the regulator tap is closed before disconnection.
e. Ensure that the replacement cylinder connections are gastight.
Any leaking vapour will have a distinctive odour. Test by using
leak detection solution around the connections - bubbles will
form if vapour is leaking.
NEVER USE A NAKED FLAME
f.
It is essential that the correct pressure regulator, with the correct
pressure setting and capacity for the installation, is used in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
g. In the case of a connection on a pressure regulator or gas
appliance which relies upon a sealing washer to maintain a
gastight joint, it is essential to check that the washer is
present and that it is sound and correctly positioned prior to
making the connection. Where the connection relies on a
metal-to-metal seating or bullnose connection to obtain a
gastight joint, it is essential that the mating surfaces be
clean and undamaged.
Under no circumstances should a damaged valve or
connection be used.
h. Where connections are designed to be tightened with a
spanner, it is essential that a spanner of the correct size is
used and that the union is firmly tightened - hand tightness is
not sufficient.
When self sealing valves are incorporated in a gas cylinder,
connection should be made in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions and tools should not be used.
i.
If the continuation of supply is interrupted when a cylinder is
changed, it is essential that all appliance taps are turned off
before the change is made.
j.
With bulk storage tanks always ensure that the site is kept
clean and clear of rubbish. Such vessels are designed to be
filled on site by the gas distributors.
