Important Information

Insulation Pads/Ceramic Fibre, Glass yarn

These can cause irritation to skin, eyes and the respiratory tract.

If you have a history of skin complaint you may be susceptible
to irritation. High dust levels are usual only if the material is
broken.

Instructions for Use

Gas Leak or Fault

If a gas leak or fault exists or is suspected, turn the boiler mains
electrical supply off and turn off the gas supply at the meter.
Consult your local gas company or your local installation/
servicing company.

Electrical Supply Failure

The boiler will not work without an electrical supply.

Normal operation of the boiler should resume when the electrical
supply is restored. If not, the boiler safety cut-off may have
operated, please refer to the following section to reset.

Reset any external controls, to resume normal operation of the
central heating.

The digital timer, if fitted, has a lithium battery back up and will
not need resetting.

Reset Button

Refer to diagram 1 which shows the fascia behind the drop
down door.

If the burner goes out check the digital display. Flashing digits
on the display indicate a fault. Allow the boiler to cool down for
at least four minutes then press the ‘reset’ button. This should
restart the boiler.

To obtain service call your installer or Heatcall (Glow-worm’s
own service organisation) using the telephone number given on
the front page of these instructions.

Dripping taps

If a hot water tap is dripping there is a possibility that the boiler
will not supply central heating when there is a demand. This will
occur when the boiler controller can detect a flow in the
domestic hot water circuit. It will continue to supply hot water
until the flow is no longer detected. To solve this problem either
turn off the dripping tap or replace the tap seal as required.

Operating the Boiler

To Operate the Boiler

1. Check that all five isolating valves are open with their slots
in line with the length of the valve, see diagram 8.1.

2.

A sealed pressurised system must be filled and

pressurised by a competent person.
Only operate the boiler when you are sure that the system has
been filled and pressurised. Check this by looking at the
pressure gauge which should read a minimum of 1.0bar, see
diagram 1.

3. Open a hot water tap, check that water flows, then close it.

4. If you are in any doubt about the boiler being filled with water
contact your installation/servicing company or the local gas
company.

5. Check that the electrical supply to the boiler is ON at the
external isolator.

6. Set clock/timer (if fitted) and any remote controls as required.

7. If the display is flashing, press the 'reset' button, shown on
diagram 1.

8. The boiler should now operate.

Normal handling should not cause discomfort, but follow normal
good hygiene and wash your hands before eating, drinking or
going to the lavatory.

If you do suffer irritation to the eyes or severe irritation to the skin
seek medical attention.
