6. Overheating of the
boiler
No heating load or
incorrectly adjusted
heating output level of
the burner, or of the
heating installation

Check the heating installation for correct
operation and eventually adjust the
operation parameters – to be performed by
servicing specialist. After the appliance
cools down and the failure has been
removed
deactivate
the
