Operating manual atmoCRAFT

The unit can only be re-started if the heating system has 
sufficient water in it (see Section 4.8.7).

 Caution!

If the fault signal F.20 is shown repeatedly, an 
authorised heating engineer must be consulted 
to carry out a check of the system.

4.8.3 Ignition problems

1

Fig. 4.13  Fault resolution

If the burner fails to ignite after three attempts, the 
device does not start up and switches to "

Fault"

. This is 

indicated by the fault code 

"F.28"

 or 

"F.29"

 in the 

display.
•  First check whether the  stop-cock in the gas line is 

open.

Automatic ignition can only take place after you 
manually reset the fault.
•  To reset the fault, press the "reset" button (

1

) and hold 

it down for approx. one second.

 Caution!

Inappropriate alterations can cause damage!
If your gas boiler still does not start after the 
third attempt, you must call a suitably qualified 
heating engineer for help.

4.8.4 Fault caused by exceeding the temperature

1

2

Abb. 4.14 Releasing after STB switch-off

Your boiler is equipped with a safety temperature limiter 
(STB) which automatically switches off the boiler if the 
temperature gets too hot. This fault is displayed by the 
fault code 

"F.20"

.

•  Remove the front cover.
•  Release the STB by pushing the pin (

1

).

•  Reset the electronic system by pushing the "Reset" 

button (

2

).

 Caution!

If the fault signal F.20 is shown repeatedly, an 
authorised heating engineer must be consulted 
to carry out a check of the system.

4.8.5 Faults with the exhaust gas removal

The Vaillant atmoCRAFT units can be equipped with an 
exhaust gas sensor (accessories). If the exhaust gases 
are not removed properly, the unit switches off 
temporarily in order to prevent the escape of exhaust 
gas into the room where the boiler is located.
The display shows the symbol "Fault in air/exhaust gas 
route". The unit starts up again automatically after 
approx. 15-20 minutes after this switch-off.
After repeated switch-off (max. three failed attempts) 
the unit does not start up again. The error message 
"

F.36

" appears in the display.
