PRESSURE RELIEF PIPEWORK:
IMPORTANT: The pressure relief valve
is a safety device for the boiler and if
activated may discharge boiling water
steam through the relief valve drain
pipe.
The pressure relief drain pipe (M) from the

boiler should be at least 15mm diameter
copper pipe and run downwards away from
any electrics or other hazard, preferably to an
external drain or soakaway.
Pipe (M) should be finished with a partial
bend, near the outlet to face the external wall
(as shown) to help prevent hazard.
PRE INSTALLATION
Care should be taken when siting the

outlet pipe so that it does not cause an
obst ruct ion or discharge above a
window, entrance or other public access
where it could cause a hazard.

FLUE OPTIONS
PRE INSTALLATION
The flue must be fitted and terminated in

accordance with the recommendations of
BS5440 : Part 1.
The flue must not cause an obstruction.
Discharge and any noise from the flue outlet
must not cause a nuisance.
Flue gases have a tendency to plume and in
certain weather conditions a white plume of
condensation will be discharged from the
flue outlet. Where this could be a nuisance,
for example, near security lighting, an alternate position should be found.
The air inlet/outlet duct and the terminal of
the boiler must not be closer than 25mm to
any combustible material.
Detailed recommendations on protection of
combustible materials are given in
BS 5440: Part 1
A protective terminal guard must be fitted if
the terminal is 2m or less above a surface to
which people have access.
The guard must be spaced equally (minimum 50 mm) around the flue and fixed to
the wall with plated screws. See Contact
Information (inside front cover).

IMPORTANT HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS

It is advised that two people are used to carry
the carton from the van to the point of delivery.
Once the carton has been delivered, the outer
carton is removed first. Care should be taken
when releasing the straps. If a sharp implement
is used make sure the outer carton is not
pierced and that the implement is used in such
a way so that it may not cause personal injury.
All sharp objects must be covered or the blade
retracted after use and put away in a safe
place. The wall mounting frame, Installer
pack, template and bottom panel are now
removed. Care should be taken when lifting the
boiler from the base and the proper technique
for safe lifting of any heavy object should be
strictly observed.
Additional requirements for roof space
installation:
The boiler should be first unpacked before
ascending ladder to loft space.
Two sets of steps should be used.
Two people should share the lifting of the
boiler up to the loft hatch, where the boiler is
entered into the loft space tilted and slid on its
back into the loft.
Once the appliance is removed from its

* compatible with aluminium. The pH

value of the system water must be less
than 8 or the appliance guarantee will be
invalidated.
If connected to an open vent system turn on
the water supply to the system header tank
and allow to fill the system.
If connected to a sealed system fill via a
WRAS approved filling loop to between 1
and 2 bar.
Vent all radiators; Re-tighten vents when
complete. Vent any air from the boiler
heat exchanger using a suitable container to
collect any water.
Ensure tube outlet is directed away from
the fan or any other electrical
component to prevent damage.
Vent all radiators and the primary side of the
hot water tank.
For sealed systems re-pressurise if necessary.
Turn pressure relief valve anti-clockwise until
the pressure is 1bar.
Set all controls to maximum.
Record the date when the inhibitor was
added to the system on the guarantee card.
NOTE: The concentration level of
inhibitor in the system should be
checked every 12 months or
sooner if system content is lost.
The addition of sealing agents to
the system water is not
recommended as this can cause
problems with deposits left in the
heat exchanger.

FAULT FINDING
NOTE : This fault finding information is for guidance only. Worcester cannot be held responsible for costs incurred by persons not deemed
to be competent.
The electronic control system for this boiler incorporates a blue central indicator. This normally confirms the permanent mains supply but, by
flashing at different rates during a fault, provides a guide to the cause as listed.
This fault finding system assumes that the appliance has been operating normally until the time of failure (i.e. not a first installation error).
PRELIMINARY CHECKS : Preliminary electrical system checks are the first electrical checks to be carried out during a fault-finding
procedure. On completion of the Service/Fault-Finding task which has required the breaking and remaking of electrical connections, check
(a) EARTH CONTINUITY, (b) SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK, (c) POLARITY and (d) RESISTANCE TO EARTH.

DEMAND
BOILER FUNCTION
If in the unlikely event the boiler does not give

complete satisfaction, before calling for a service
engineer, the installer should check the following:For boilers with external diverter valves and
controls
No Central Heating but Hot Water OK
Unlikely to be a boiler fault, please ask your electrician to check the external
controls.
Pack Number
No Hot Water but Central Heating OK

Unlikely to be a boiler fault, please ask your electrician to check the external
controls.
No HW or CH demand
Is there a demand from external controls? To eliminate the boiler as a fault,
remove the switched live from the wiring centre to LR on ST10, then fit a link
between the Ls and LR. If the boiler and pump run normally then it is likely
there is a fault with the external controls. Please contact your electrician.
For boilers with internal diverter valve and controls

No Central Heating but Hot Water OK
Remove the room stat wiring from Ls, LR and N on terminal block ST10. Fit a
link between Ls and LR, if the CH now works there is likely to be a problem
with the room stat or wiring to it.
No Hot Water but Central Heating OK

Remove the cylinder stat wiring from 8 and 10 on the terminal block ST8. Fit
link across 8 and 10.
For all boilers with internal or external controls

Burner lights then goes out in DHW or CH mode
Does the boiler run normally with the front cover off and then fail
when the cover is put back on?
If yes there is likely to be a flue problem - either the air inlet is blocked or the
inner flue is leaking flue gases into the air inlet.
Boiler noisy or going to overheat

1. Was the system flushed?
2. Has the pump been bled and the dust cap released.
General checks
1. Is all the air bled from the gas supply?
2. Is all the air bled from the primary water system?
3. Is there 230v ac across the boiler live and neutral terminals?
(L & N on ST10)
4. Is the polarity correct?
5. Is the incoming gas pressure at least 18mbar with the boiler at maximum
output?
