12.1Cleaning the Outer case

The painted panels should be wiped with a damp cloth and then dried completely. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANING AGENTS.

12.2Maintenance

The appliance MUST be serviced annually by a Baxi authorised engineer.

12.3Condensate drain

The condensate drain, located at the bottom of the appliance, must not be modified or blocked. Blockage will cause the appliance to shut down.

12.4Protection & Precaution

1.The appliance incorporates frost protection for itself only, fitted as standard. If the system has a Programmable Room Unit mounted in a cradle on a wall then the central heating system will also be protected.

2.In cold weather, if you are going away, turn the appliance off at the time switch ONLY. Leave the mains supply switched ON.

3.If a system frost thermostat has been fitted (your installer will be able to advise you), then to operate correctly and protect your system, the gas and electricity must be left on and the appliance set in the central heating mode.

4.The boiler incorporates an integral pump protection feature which continually monitors the time since the pump last operated. To prevent seizure, the pump will operate for approximately 1 minute if it has not run in the last 24 hours.

12.5Fault Indication

1.If a fault occurs on the boiler an error code may be shown on the facia display.

12.6In an Emergency

If a gas leak occurs or is suspected, the boiler can be isolated at the inlet valves as follows;

1.Using a suitable open ended spanner, turn the square nut on the gas tap through 90° (1/4 turn) in a clockwise direction to isolate the gas supply at the boiler.

2.Call your Installer or Service Engineer as soon as possible.
