1. Maximum Rate Check and Adjustment

NOTE: To verify the maximum gas rate CO2 setting the

appliance must be checked at the maximum rate first.

Press the “reset” button on the controls fascia, release

and immediately press and hold in the “+” button. After

approximately 5 seconds “Hi” will be displayed. Pressing

the mode button when “Hi” is selected will force the boiler

to maximum rate, the display will flash between “Hi” and the

“default display” this will indicate the boiler has been forced to

maximum. Wait until the CO2 value is stable and check that

the value is within the range specified in table in the “check”

column.

If the combustion reading is not within the acceptable

values AND the integrity of the complete flue system and

combustion circuit seals have been verified and the inlet

gas pressure (and gas rate) have been verified, then, it will

necessary to adjust the combustion rate of the appliance.

NOTE: Adjustment is made by turning the gas valve

throttle an ⅛ of a turn, waiting 1 minute to allow the

appliance to stabilise before checking or making further

adjustments.

● Rotate the “throttle”(anti-clockwise to increase), to the

required CO2, refer to diagram 12.5 and the “SETTING”

column in the table.

● Exit the forced rate function, press the “mode” and “+”

buttons simultaneously, this will reset the boiler to the default

display. Now proceed to check the minimum rate adjustment.

2. Minimum Rate Check and Adjustment

● Now check the minimum gas rate CO2 setting: Press

and release the “reset” button on the controls fascia, then

immediately press and hold in either of the “+” buttons. After

approximately 5 seconds “Hi” will be displayed. Pressing the

“+” or “-” buttons will toggle between “Hi” and “Lo”. Press the

mode button when “Lo” is selected, this will force the boiler

to minimum rate and the display will flash “Lo”, indicating the

boiler is operating at minimum.

● Wait until the CO2 value is stable and check that the value

is within the range specified in table in the “check” column.

If adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows:

NOTE: Adjustment of the CO2 at minimum rate is very

coarse and should not be adjusted more than an ⅛ of

a turn at a time. Wait 1 minute to allow the appliance to

stabilise before checking or making further adjustments.

● Gradually rotate the “offset adjustment” (anti-clockwise to

decrease) to the required CO2, refer to diagram 12.5 and the

“SETTING” column in the table.

● Exit the minimum rate function, press the “mode” and “+”

buttons simultaneously, this will reset the boiler to the default

display.

3. Re-Check CO2 and check the CO/CO2

combustion ratio.

● Re-check the maximum and minimum CO2 values to

ensure that they are within the “setting” limits in the table

then check the CO/CO2 combustion ratio does not exceed

the value in the CO/CO2 column of the table. If the CO/CO2

setting exceeds the value in the table, a complete servicing of

the appliance will be necessary, refer to section 13.1.

If the CO2 and the CO/CO2 ratio falls within the tolerances

quoted, exit the function press the “mode” and “+” buttons

simultaneously, this will reset the boiler to the default display.

Remove the analyser probe and replace the cap on the

sampling point, replace the controls fascia, inner and front

casing panels.

IMPORTANT: Remember to replace the sample point cap on

completion of the test.

GAS RATE CHECK

Check the gas rates as described in the commissioning

section.

Diagram 13.3

COMPLETION

If it is not possible to achieve the required results for either

the combustion or gas rates, it will be necessary to complete

a full service of the appliance and then repeat the combustion

check procedure. If after servicing and adjustment of the

appliance the combustion values are still unacceptable

and after further remedial work has been carried out, the

appliance must be disconnected until the CO/CO2 ratio

is acceptable. Advice can be sought from the Glow-worm

Technical Helpline.

13.1 Servicing

NOTE: If the Combustion CO2, CO/CO2 ratio & Gas

rate checks did not require adjustment then it will not be

necessary to complete a full service.

All routine servicing requirements can be achieved by the

removal of the front panel, see diagram 13.2. Position the

control box into the service position, see diagram 13.3.

Before commencing with a service or replacement of parts.

The boiler should be isolated from the electrical and gas

supplies.
