Appliance Safety Devices - User Instructions

For the continued efficient and safe operation of the boiler it is
recommended that it is checked and serviced at regular intervals.
The frequency of servicing will depend upon the installation
conditions and usage, but in general, once a year should be
enough.

If this appliance is installed in a rented property in the UK there
is a duty of care imposed on the owner of the property by the
current issue of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use)
Regulations, Section 35.

Servicing/maintenance should be carried out by a competent
person in accordance with the rules in force in the countries of
destination.

To obtain service, please call your installer or Glow-worm’s own
service organisation using the telephone number on the inside
front cover of this booklet.

Please be advised that the installation engineer on completion
of commissioning and servicing should complete the ‘Benchmark’
logbook.

Electrical Supply Failure Reset Switch

The boiler will not work without an electrical supply.

Normal operation of the boiler should resume when the electrical
supply is restored.

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

If the boiler does not resume normal operation turn the mains
reset switch off and on. If the boiler does not resume normal
operation after this the overheat stat may have operated.

Overheating Safety

In the event of the boiler overheating the safety devices will
cause a safety shutdown. If this happens, call your Installation/
Servicing company.

Frost Protection

The appliance has a built in frost protection programme as long
as the electricity and gas are left switched on.

This device operates the burner and system pump when the
temperature inside the boiler falls to 3

0

C.

Any other exposed areas of the system should be protected by
a separate frost thermostat.

Condensate Drain Blockage

As a safety feature the boiler will stop working if the condensate
drain becomes blocked. During freezing conditions this may be
due to the forming of ice in the condense drain external to the
house. Release an ice blockage by the use of warm cloths on
the pipe. The boiler should then restart. Contact your installation/
servicing company if the fault persists.
