The boiler is fitted with the following devices (see section 4.2 for references).
1 - I
GNITION
F
AILURE
:
This indicates ignition failure when a flame is not detected within 7
seconds of starting an ignition sequence. The L.E.D. “F” will illuminate
to signal the shutdown status.
The system can be reset by pressing and releasing the button “E” after
checking to make sure that the gas cock is open.

P
RESSURE
:
In the event of insufficient water pressure in the heating system, a
safety device will shutdown the boiler. Check the system pressure on
the pressure gauge “J” and if it is less than 0.4 bar refill the system to
1.5 bar. Once the system pressure is at the correct level the boiler will
ignite automatically.
3 - O
VERHEATING
:
This control shuts off the boiler in the case where the primary circuit
reaches a temperature in excess of 105°C.
The red L.E.D. “F” will illuminate to signal this shutdown status.
The system can be reset by waiting a few minutes for the primary
exchanger to cool down and then by pressing and releasing the “E”
button.

FROST DEVICE
:
The boiler is equipped with a device that, in the event of the water
temperature going below 6°C, the burner ignites at the minimum power
until the boiler water reaches a temperature of 16°C.
This device operates only if the boiler is functioning perfectly and:
- the system pressure is sufficient;
- the boiler is powered electrically - L.E.D. “B” illuminated;
- the gas is turned on.

HUTDOWN
:
The boiler is fitted with safety devices, which in the event of defective
discharge of exhaust fumes, automatically interrupts the gas supply,
thereby shutting off the boiler.
The shutdown of the boiler is temporary and when the discharge state
of exhaust fumes has returned to normal, the boiler automatically turns
back on

The heating system must be emptied as follows:
- Turn off the boiler;
- Attach a hose pipe and open the drain valve;
- Empty the system at the lowest points (where present). When the heating
system is unused for an extended period of time, it is recommended that you
add antifreeze with an ethylene glycol base to the water in the
heating lines and radiators if the ambient temperature drops below 0°C during
the winter.
This makes repeated draining of the entire system unnecessary.

In the boiler, it is possible to monitor the correct operation of
the flue exhaust/air intake, checking for a loss of general
pressure in the system. Through the use of a differential
manometer connected to the test points of the combustion
chamber, it is possible to detect the
∆
P of operation of the air
pressure switch.
The value detected should not be less than 0.55 mbar under
conditions of maximum thermal power in order for the boiler
to function properly and without interruption.
