Annual Servicing (Cont)

11. Ease the front edge of the left hand baffle upwards,

disengaging the spring clip. Disengage the tab on the

baffle from the slot in the fan hood (Fig. 42).

12. Undo the screws securing the fan and hood to the

appliance back panel. Draw the assembly forwards

(Fig. 43).

13. Undo the screws securing the burner to the injector
manifold. Draw the burner out of the combustion box,
pulling the electrode grommets from the slots in the
combustion box lower panel (Fig. 44).

14. Disconnect the electrode leads and grommets from
the electrodes. Completely remove the burner (Fig. 44).

15. Brush any deposits from the injectors. Do not use a
pin or wire to clean them.

16. Brush the burner blades and venturis and clean the
combustion box.

17. Ensure that the heat exchanger fins are clear of any
obstruction.

NOTE: If necessary the secondary heat exchanger

may be dismantled - see section 12.24.

DHW Filters (Fig. 46)
18. If the flow of domestic hot water is diminished, it
may be necessary to clean the filters.

19. Initially check the cold water inlet tap filter.

20. Turn the tap off. Undo the blanking cap and remove
the threaded bush (Fig. 45).

21. Extract the filter and rinse thoroughly in clean water.
Reassemble and check the flow. If required clean the
manifold filter as described below.

22. Undo the filter cartridge from the inlet/return
manifold.

23. Dismantle the cartridge and carefully remove the
flow regulator and filter gauze. Rinse them thoroughly in
clean water and reassemble in reverse order.

24. Check that the pressure vessel charge is 0.5bar and
reassemble in reverse order of dismantling.

25. Turn the selector switch fully anticlockwise against
the spring pressure to position R and hold for 2 seconds
to reset the boiler before recommissioning.
