Maintenance tips
-
Appliances on a sealed heating system:
– Regularly check the system pressure. -
Do not obstruct the flue outlet or the air inlet.
-
Use in hard water areas:
– In exceptionally hard water areas a device to prevent scale formation should be fitted. Installation of a salt based water softener should be in accordance with the requirements of the local water company. A bypass valve must be fitted and used to fill/top up the heating system with untreated water.
**** Important note:
▶ If you have to add water regularly in your heating system, call a competent,
qualified person.
2.4 Benchmark standard
The Benchmark initiative is a code of practice to encourage the correct installation, commissioning and servicing of domestic central heating appliances and system equipment.
A “checklist” is dispatched with every appliance and can be found towards the
back of the Installation, Commissioning and Servicing Instructions. This is a
vital document that needs to be completed by the installer at the time of
installation. It confirms that the appliance has been installed and
commissioned according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
The service record provides space for the recording of regular servicing of
the appliance/heating system and this can become a valuable document when, for
example, you wish to sell the property. The service record will show a
potential purchaser that the heating system has received regular professional
maintenance and servicing during its lifetime.
The Benchmark initiative aims to:
- Raise standards among professional installers.
- Build and maintain high safety standards in the industry.
- Improve customer satisfaction levels.
- Make a contribution to the nation’s commitment to climate change.
Prepare for operation
3.1 Sealed heating system
Appliances that can be connected to sealed heating systems are prepressurised
before operation, this pressure must be maintained for safe use of the
appliance.
▶ Check regularly that the pressure is maintained.
▶ Re-charge the system if the pressure indicator reads less than 0.8 bar.
▶ If a permanent significant decrease or increase in pressure is shown on the
pressure indicator, contact your installer or maintenance engineer.
**** Pressure indicator
▶ Type of pressure indicator for the system pressure.
– Pressure gauge (an analogue dial showing the pressure)
– Pressure menu (a digital readout of the pressure)
▶ Your appliance may have one or both types of methods to indicate the system
pressure. The type of method used on this appliance will be detailed in the
following section.
3.1.1 Checking the system pressure
Your installer will advise you of the optimum operating pressure.
▶ Check the system pressure on the pressure gauge.
– Static pressure is when appliance is cold and has not fired for heating or
hot water. This will generally be 1 – 1.5 bar.
– Operating pressure is when the appliance is firing for a heating or hot
water demand. This will generally be 1 – 2 bar.
▶ Top up the heating water, if the pressure is too low.
- Static pressure range
- Operating pressure range
Your installer will advise you of the optimum operating pressure.
▶ Press the ok key.
The actual pressure appears.
3.1.2 Low pressure indication
Low pressure (shaded area [A]) will be indicated on the appliance:
- The needle is within the area between 0 and 1bar.
[A] Low pressure
area

| Displayed when system pressure is lower than 1.1 bar.
---|---
Table 3
3.1.3 Constantly re-pressurising the system
Constantly having to re-pressurise the heating system should be investigated
as it is an indicator of potential leaks and the concentration of inhibitor
protection in the system will be reduced; this can result in corrosion within
the heating system, reducing efficiency and increasing contaminates.
▶ Check for leaks on heating system (pipework and radiator valves).
▶ Contact your installer or maintenance engineer if a recurring significant
decrease or increase in pressure is shown on the pressure indicator (pressure
gauge or pressure display).
System pressure increasing:
▶ If the system pressure repeatedly increases and you need to vent air from
the radiators, refer to section “System gassing”, page 17.
3.2 Topping up the system pressure
** Your installer should have informed you where to find the filling system
and instructed you in its use.
NOTICE**
System fill method
▶ You must disconnect the external filling loop after re-pressurisation, to
comply with the Water Authority regulations.
External filling loop
Once the external filling loop and pressure gauge has been located, follow the
instructions for re-pressurising the system.
Refer to figure 5.
▶ Unscrew the blanking cap [1].
▶ Attach the hose [2] to the valve.
– Usually one end of the hose is already connected to one of the system fill
isolation valves.
▶ Ensure both ends [3] of the hose are screwed on hand tight.
– The system fill isolation valves [4] are in a closed position (the
handle/screwdriver slot is across the valve).
▶ Turn the handle/screwdriver slot through 90° to open valves and slowly fill
the system to between 1 and 1.5bar.
– The system fill isolation valves [5] are opened (the handle/ screwdriver
slot is in-line with the valve).
– The needle on the pressure gauge will start to rise.
▶ Turn the handles/screwdriver slots back, through 90°, to close the valves.
– The system fill isolation valves [6] are in a closed position (the
handle/screwdriver slot is across the valve).
▶ Top up the system pressure, if as a result of the air bleeding the pressure
drops off.
▶ Remove the hose [2] and replace the blanking cap [1].
Keyless filling link (optional accessory)
Locate the filling link (underneath the appliance on the right hand side) and
follow the instructions for re-pressurising the system.
Re-pressurise the system.
▶ To start the filling process, pull the lever [1] down.
– The needle on the pressure gauge will start to rise.
▶ To stop the filling process, release the lever [1] when:
– The pressure, shown on the pressure gauge, reaches between the 1 and 1.5 bar
[2].
▶ Top up the system pressure, if as a result of the air bleeding, the pressure
drops off. **** If the pressure gauge
reads more than 1.5 bar as a result of over filling:
▶ Bleed one radiator until the pressure gauge returns to between 1 and 1.5
bar.
▶ It is good practice to bleed any excess air that has entered the heating
system due to pressure loss. Locate and open the radiator’s bleed/ vent point,
closing the valve when water begins to flow.
▶ If, through normal boiler operation, the PRV pipe starts to leak, it could
be a sign of system pressure being too high. In this instance please bleed a
radiator as described above.
WARNING
Risk of damage to the system from corrosion!
If the pressure in your heating system is repeatedly rising and you are
repeatedly venting radiators, this can indicate that there is corrosion
occurring within the heating system.
To prevent serious damage to the entire system:
▶ Contact a heating engineer.
Failure to properly maintain the heating system may affect your
warranty.
System pressure can be checked via the boiler’s pressure gauge/reading
when the system is cold, ensuring the reading is in the green zone at all
times.
CAUTION
Caution must be exercised when venting radiators or re-pressurising/ topping
up the heating system:
▶ Do not vent air from radiators whilst the central heating is switched on.
▶ Allow 30 minutes after venting the radiators before using central heating or
hot water.
▶ Whilst venting radiators, do not allow the pressure to drop below the green
zone on the boiler’s pressure gauge/reading.
**** If symptoms persist:
▶ Do not repeatedly vent your radiators.
▶ Contact a heating engineer.
Operation
These operating instructions describe the operation of the gas-fired
condensing boiler. Therefore please also observe the operating instructions
for the user interface.
4.1 Switching on/off the appliance
Switching on

▶ Press the and arrows simultaneously, until the symbols and
are no longer be displayed.
The appliance starts up again. The flow temperature is displayed.
If a fault cannot be eliminated:
▶ Contact an Installer/Service Engineer or Worcester, Bosch Group appointments
team on 0330 123 9339.
▶ You will need to provide them with the displayed fault code and the
following appliance data.
– Appliance type and serial number.
– Commissioning date.
8.2 Extreme cold weather
In certain instances where the condensate pipework is run externally or in an
unheated area, such as a garage, the condensate pipework can be at risk of
freezing, even if well insulated.
A frozen/blocked condensate pipe will cause the boiler to shut down.
Worcester, Bosch Group have available helpful videos on thawing frozen
condensate pipe work on our website in the Customer Service section.
WARNING
Falling hazard!
Failure to follow this guidance may result in personal injury.
▶ Only attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at ground level and easily
accessible.
▶ Never attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at height.
CAUTION
Risk of damage to pipe work!
Thermal shock from boiling water can damage plastic pipes.
▶ DO NOT use boiling water to thaw the condensate pipe!
CAUTION
Slip hazard
▶ Ensure that the subsequent freezing of any water does not result in a slip
hazard.
If the condensate pipe has frozen:
▶ Locate the blockage.
– It is likely that the pipe is frozen at the most exposed point outside the
building or where there is an obstruction to flow. This could be the open end
of the pipe, at a bend or elbow, or where there is a sag in the pipe in which
condensate can collect.
– The location of the blockage should be identified as closely as possible
before taking further action.
▶ Thaw the frozen pipe.
– The pipe can be thawed by applying a hot water bottle, a microwaveable
heating pack (the sort used for muscular aches and pains) or a cloth soaked in
hot water to the exterior of the pipe, close to the point of blockage.
– Hot water, but not boiling, can also be poured onto the pipe from a watering
can or similar container.
– Care must be taken at pedestrian areas where this water may freeze and
create a slip hazard.
▶ Worcester, Bosch Group have available on our website helpful videos in the
Customer Service section to aid in thawing a frozen pipe.
▶ Reset the appliance and wait two or three minutes for the appliance to
restart.
▶ Contact Worcester, Bosch Group Appointments Team on: 0330 123 9339, if the
boiler does not restart.
▶ Contact your installer in order to find a permanent solution to the problem.
System gassing
WARNING
If you suspect the heating system is gassing, you must exercise caution when
carrying out testing or remedial work as the gasses produced can be flammable.
Do not vent air from radiators whilst the central heating is switched on.
Allow 30mins after venting the radiators before using the central heating or
hot water.
▶ Whilst venting radiators, do not allow the pressure on the boiler to drop
below the point at which it is normally set.
▶ If the system is to be drained, the boiler must be electrically isolated.
CAUTION
If system pressure is repeatedly increasing, even when the appliance is not
operating, you should first check that the filling link is fully closed and
confirm that it is not passing. If radiators are also not heating to the top
of the panels and repeatedly need venting, the heating system may be suffering
from gassing. This is an indication that corrosion is taking place and
requires the system being cleaned and treated to BS7593.
▶ This should be confirmed by taking water samples to check pH levels and
turbidity.
▶ Failure to properly maintain the heating system may result in damage to the
system and appliance, and may affect the boiler warranty.
Environmental protection and disposal
Environmental protection is a fundamental corporate strategy of the Bosch
Group.
The quality of our products, their economy and environmental safety are all of
equal importance to us and all environmental protection legislation and
regulations are strictly observed.
We use the best possible technology and materials for protecting the
environment taking account of economic considerations.
Packaging
Where packaging is concerned, we participate in country-specific recycling
processes that ensure optimum recycling.
All of our packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be
recycled.
Compostable packaging
Compostable packaging is used wherever possible in an effort to reduce the
product’s impact on the environment and the overall demand for plastic
packaging. Where the following symbol is shown the material is compostable:
Compostable packaging can be disposed of in a number of ways:
- Home compost heap
- Local Authority garden waste collection
- Local Authority food waste collection, ideally as a food waste bin bag
- Local Authority household waste
Please note that compostable materials cannot be recycled.
Used appliances
Used appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled.
The various assemblies can be easily dismantled. Synthetic materials are
marked accordingly. Assemblies can therefore be sorted by composition and
passed on for recycling or disposal.
Old electrical and electronic appliances
This symbol means that the product must not be disposed of with other waste,
and instead must be taken to the waste collection points for treatment,
collection, recycling and disposal.
The symbol is valid in countries where waste electrical and electronic
equipment regulations apply, e.g. “(UK) Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Regulations 2013 (as amended)”. These regulations define the
framework for the return and recycling of old electronic appliances that apply
in each country.
As electronic devices may contain hazardous substances, it needs to be
recycled responsibly in order to minimize any potential harm to the
environment and human health. Furthermore, recycling of electronic scrap helps
preserve natural resources.
For additional information on the environmentally compatible disposal of old
electrical and electronic appliances, please contact the relevant local
authorities, your household waste disposal service or the retailer where you
purchased the product.

Batteries
Batteries must not be disposed together with your household waste.
Used batteries must be disposed of in local collection systems.
Tips on energy saving
Quick Tap function
▶ Fully open your hot water tap for at least 3 seconds. This ignites the
boiler.
▶ Turn hot water tap to fully closed.
▶ Wait up to 30 seconds1) as the boiler continues to prepare hot water.
▶ Open your hot water tap; hot water is available2)
On average, 3.5 litres of water can be saved when using the Quick Tap
function.
Water saving varies depending on user behaviour, pipework design and the time
of year, for example, if Central Heating is on during the winter, DHW will
heat up quicker than in the summer, reducing the potential for water saving.
Savings are calculated based on average mains water pressure, a heat-up time
of 30 seconds and close proximity of the tap to the boiler.
Heating economically
The appliance provides a high level of comfort whilst keeping fuel consumption
and the environment effects as low as possible.
The appliance is controlled in such a way that it delivers heat at the correct
rate and only if there is a clear demand from the system.
Central heating systems with thermostatic radiator valves
With modern heating systems set around a 20 °C heat loss, the optimum setting
for a condensing boiler will be approximately 65 °C for the central heating
temperature. This is to ensure a return temperature of less than 52 °C.
The system must be balanced correctly and the radiators may need upgrading.
This allows the boiler to condense as much as possi b l e for the central
heating system.
The temperature of each room can be set individually (except primary room with
the room thermostat) using the thermostatic radiator valves.
Room thermostats
Reducing the setting of the room thermostat by 1 °C can reduce fuel
consumption by up to 10%.
New control systems
Upgrade your heating control system if necessary with the latest equipment
available.
Roof insulation
Around 30% of the heat loss from a property is through the roof. Replace any
old insulation with new insulation, preferably of around 200mm thickness or
more.
Window frames
Single glazed windows, particularly those with steel frames, can lose a great
deal of heat. Consideration should be given to replacement with PVCu or wooden
framed double glazed units.
Radiators
If a radiator is sited underneath a window, its performance will be affected
if the curtains are allowed to drape over the radiator. Shelves fitted above
or in front of the radiator should also be avoided.
It is advisable to manually adjust all thermostatic radiator valves every 2‒3
months to prevent them sticking. Ensure radiator valves are correctly set and
not damaged.
Draughts
Try to ensure that draughts around doors, windows, letter boxes and keyholes
etc. are reduced by using a suitable draught excluder.
WARNING
Air vents!
▶ Do not block or seal any air vents that are installed to ensure that the
appliance operates safely.
Curtains
Lined curtains, or heavier full length curtains can provide excellent
insulation. However, always ensure that the curtains do not drape over
radiators.
