4.4 Troubleshooting
Diagnostics
The boiler is equipped with an advanced self-diagnosis system. In case of a boiler fault,
the display will flash together with the fault symbol (detail 22 - fig. 1) indicating the fault
code.
There are faults that cause permanent shutdowns (marked with the letter "A"): to restore
operation, press the RESET button (detail 8 - fig. 1) for 1 second or use the RESET on
the remote timer control (optional) if installed; if the boiler does not restart it is necessary
to eliminate the fault indicated in the operation LEDs.
Other faults cause temporary shutdowns (marked with the letter "F") which are automat-
ically reset as soon as the value returns within the boiler's normal working range.
