3.1 Central Heating System Pressure

1. The water pressure in the central heating system is

indicated by the pressure gauge.

2. With the system cold and the boiler not operating the

pressure should be at least 0.5 bar. During operation the

pressure should not exceed 2.5 bar, and will normally be

between 1.0 and 2.0 (Fig. 1).

3. A pressure of 3 or greater indicates a fault. The safety

pressure relief valve will operate, at a pressure of 3 (Fig. 3). It

is important that your Installer or Service Engineer is

contacted as soon as possible.

4. The minimum pressure for correct operation is 0.5. If the

pressure falls below 0.5, this may indicate a leak on the

central heating system (Fig. 2). Error Code E119 will be

shown on the display.

3.2 To Re-Pressurise the System

(Optional Filling Loop)

1. The procedure is for the optional filling loop kit when

fitted. However, even if your boiler has an external loop, the

principle is similar.

2. Look at the boiler from underneath. There will be two taps

at the end of copper pipes, one with a blanking cap on the

end. Do not operate these taps yet.

3. Your installer will have left a metal braided hose (the ‘filling

loop’) with you for safe keeping.

4. This loop MUST be connected to the taps. Remove the

blanking cap and set aside.

5. Connect the loop to the taps with the wing nuts. These

should be hand tightened.

6. Carefully open the handles on 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.

7. Undo the two wing nuts, remove the loop and refit the

blanking cap. Put the loop in a safe place for future use.

1. This appliance must have been installed in accordance

with the manufacturer’s instructions and the regulations

in force.

2. Any modification that may interfere with the normal

operation of the appliance without express written

permission from the manufacturer or his agent could

invalidate the appliance warranty. In GB this could also

infringe the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations.

3. Your boiler must not be operated without the casing

correctly fitted.

4. Do not interfere with any sealed components on this

boiler.

5. Take note of any warning labels on your boiler.

6. Your boiler should have the following minimum

clearances for Safety and Maintenance

(Fig. 4):-

Top - 200mm

Bottom - 200mm

Left side - 5mm

Right Side - 5mm

Front - 5mm (In Operation)

- 450mm (For Servicing)

7. If your boiler is installed in a compartment, do not use

it for storage purposes. Do not obstruct any purpose

provided ventilation openings.

8. Flammable materials must not be stored in close

proximity to your boiler.

9. Avoid skin contact when your boiler is in operation, as

some surfaces may get hot e.g. pipework.

10. Ensure that the flue terminal, outside the house,

does not become damaged or obstructed, particularly

by foliage.

11. It is important that the condensate drain system is

not blocked, modified or damaged in any way as this

would affect the operation of your boiler. Your installer

should have insulated any exposed pipework.

5.0 Care of the Boiler

8© Baxi Heating UK Ltd 2009

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.

5.3 Fault Indication

1. If a fault occurs on the boiler an error code may be shown

on the facia display (Fig. 5).

2. The codes are either two or three digit, preceded by the

letter 'E'. For example, code E133 will be displayed by 'E1'

alternating with '33'. E50 is shown as 'E' then '50'.

3. E20, E28, E50, E125 & E160 indicate faulty components.

You should make a note of the displayed error code and

contact your installer or service engineer.

4. If E110 or E130 is displayed overheat of the primary water

or flue system has occurred. Turn the selector switch to the

reset position and hold for at least 5 seconds. If the boiler

does not relight, or the code is displayed regularly contact your

installer or service engineer.

5. E119 is displayed when the primary water pressure is less

than 0.5 bar. After repressurising the system the boiler should

operate. Your installer will be able to advise you about the

method of repressurising. See page 6 for further details.

6. E133 indicates that the gas supply has been interrupted,

ignition has failed or the flame has not been detected. Ensure

that the gas supply has not been turned off, and turn the

selector switch to the reset position and hold for at least 5

seconds. If the boiler does not relight, or the code is displayed

regularly contact your installer or service engineer.
