INTRODUCTION

The classic HE is a wall mounted, room sealed, high efficiency condensing boiler featuring full sequence automatic spark ignition and fan assisted combustion.

Due to the very high efficiency, condensate is produced from the flue gases and this is drained to a suitable disposal point through the plastic waste pipe at the right lower rear of the boiler. A condensate 'plume' will also often be visible at the flue terminal.

SAFETY

Current Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations or rules in force.

In your own interest, and that of safety, it is the law that this boiler must be installed by a CORGI registered installer. In IE the installation must be carried out by a competent person and installed in accordance with the current edition of I.S. 813 “domestic Gas Installations”, the current Building Regulations and reference should be made to the current ETCI rules for electrical installation.

It is essential that the instructions in this booklet are strictly followed, for safe and economical operation of the boiler.

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

This appliance must be efficiently earthed.

Supply: 230 V ~ 50 Hz. The fusing should be 3A.

Connection must be made in a way that allows complete isolation of the electrical supply such as a double pole switch having a 3mm (1/8") contact separation in both poles, or a plug and socket, serving only the boiler and system controls. The means of isolation must be accessible to the user after installation.

IMPORTANT NOTES

•This appliance must not be operated without the casing correctly fitted and forming an adequate seal.

•If the boiler is installed in a compartment then the compartment MUST NOT be used for storage purposes.

•The ventilation provided for the boiler during installation MUST NOT be blocked, and a check should be made periodically that the ventilation areas are free from any obstruction.

•If it is known or suspected that a fault exists on the boiler then it MUST NOT be used until the fault has been corrected by a CORGI registered installer or in IE a competent person.

•Under NO circumstances should any of the sealed components on this appliance be used incorrectly or tampered with.

•This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

•Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

MINIMUM CLEARANCES

A clearance of 450mm (17 3/4") MUST be available at the front of the boiler for servicing.

The minimum clearances given below MUST be complied with in order to maintain the safe running of the boiler .

Above the boiler	100	mm	(4")
At each side of the boiler	5	mm	(1/4")
Underneath the boiler	100	mm	(4")
In front of the boiler	5	mm	(1/4")

TO LIGHT THE BOILER. REFER TO FRAME 1

If a programmer is fitted, refer to separate instructions for the programmer before continuing.

1.CHECK THAT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY TO THE BOILER IS OFF.

2.Open the controls access door by hinging downwards.

3.Ensure that the gas inlet cock (D) is OPEN.

4.Press the overheat reset button (E), located as shown in Frame 1.

5.Ensure that the mains on/off switch (C) is in the OFF position.

6.Switch ON the electricity supply to the boiler. Check that all external controls, e.g. room thermostat etc., are ON.

7.Turn the boiler thermostat knob (B) to position 6 and the mains on/off switch (C) to ON. After about 15 seconds the boiler will light automatically - this can be viewed through the sight glass (A).

Set the boiler thermostat to the desired position.

8.Close the controls access door.

In winter conditions, i.e. central heating and domestic hot water, the thermostat should be set at position 5 or 6.

For summer conditions, i.e. domestic hot water only, the thermostat should be set at position 3.

These settings, however, are offered for general guidance only and other settings may be found preferable, dependent upon the type of system installed or as recommended by the installer.

CAUTION. To avoid the possibility of injury during the installation, servicing or cleaning of this appliance care should be taken when handling edges of sheet steel components
