ignite
Gas supply fault
Check gas pressure. Check
gas supply cock or gas
network safety valve
intervention.

detect flame: inverted phase
and neutral
Verify correct neutral and
phase connection
sequence.
Detection electrode cable
interrupted
Re-connect or replace
cable

set correctly
Check burner setting
Boiler shut-down, picture
flashes:
Flow double probe
check has been
triggered

system (thermostatic valves
shut, system shut-off cocks
closed) and the by-pass
valve
does not trigger
Check system status and
by-pass valve

or faulty
Check the circulation pump.
Double flow probe faulty.
Check probe values.
Boiler shut-down,
picture flashes:

insufficient or flue gas vent
is difficult
Check air intake/flue gas
vent ducts: clean or replace
as necessary

pressure switch clogged or
not connected
Connect or clean pipe as
necessary
