To Re-Pressurise the System
1. Look at the boiler from underneath. There will be two taps
connected to the cold inlet tap and central heating return tap.
Do not operate these taps yet !

2. Your installer will have left a short copper pipe with wing
nuts (the ‘filling loop’) with you for safe keeping.
3. To re-pressurise this loop MUST be connected to the taps.
Remove the blanking caps and set aside.
4. Ensure that the two seals are fitted, and connect the loop to
the taps with the wing nuts. These should be hand tightened.
5. Carefully open both taps and check the boiler pressure
gauge. Once the needle on the gauge is above the 0.5 mark
both taps can be closed.
Caps removed
6. Undo the two wing nuts, remove the loop and refit the
blanking caps. Put the loop in a safe place for future use, and
ensure that the seals remain in place

5.0 Care of the Boiler
5.1
Cleaning the Outer case
The painted panels should be wiped with a damp cloth and
then dried completely. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE
CLEANING AGENTS.
5.2
Protection & Precaution
1. The boiler incorporates an integral frost protection feature
that will operate in both modes. If the boiler temperature falls
below 5° C, then the boiler will operate until the water
temperature has been raised.
2. 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.
3. 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.
