The

XTRAFAST incorporates a visual display that indicates

fault conditions, should they occur.

In the event of a fault, the display will indicate, by means of
pictograms and/or letters and numbers, exactly in which area
the fault lies.

Should the boiler fail to operate during Commissioning, the
most likely fault is that the gas supply to the boiler has not been
turned on or purged sufficiently or that there is no pressure in the
heating system. These are indicated as follows :

13.4 Air flow rate safety device

If an obstruction, even partial, of the flue occurs, for any reason
whatsoever, the built in safety system of the boiler will turn the
boiler OFF and the fan will continue to run.

The boiler will be ready to operate when the fault has been
cleared.

13.5 Overheat safety

In case of boiler overheating, the overheat thermostat will turn
the boiler off. The thermostat will need to be manually reset. To
do this remove the front panel and sealed chamber cover,
locate the reset button on the heat exchanger flow pipe, refer
to Sections 16.3, 16.4, 16.5 and diagram 19.15.

13.6 In case of power supply failure

The boiler no longer operates.

As soon as power supply is restored, the boiler will be
automatically restarted.

13.7 Frost protection

The XTRAFAST has a built in frost protection device that
protects the boiler from freezing. If the boiler is to be left and
there is a risk of frost, ensure that the gas and electrical supplies
are left connected. The frost protection device will light the boiler
when the temperature of the boiler water falls below 6

°

C. When

the temperature reaches 16

°

C, the boiler stops.

Note : This device works irrespective of any room thermostat
setting and will protect the complete heating system.
