VORTEX Pro boilers. The engineers
manual for the installation and
maintenance of this boiler is attached
to the reverse of these instructions
The following special text formats are
used in this manual for the purposes

About your boiler
The boiler is fully automatic once
switched on, providing central heating
(and also heating your domestic hot
water if you have a hot water cylinder
fitted). Kitchen/Utility boilers have a
'mains on' neon, see Figure 1, which
lights when the boiler is switched on, but
does not necessarily indicate the burner
is firing.
If your
boiler has
a programmer
fitted, it
will provide
hot water
and central
heating
during the
periods set
on the
programmer.
