1.3 Boiler operation
1.3.1 Switching on
DANGER
It is presumed that the boiler has been installed by a qualified installer, it has been commissioned and is ready to operate correctly.
• Open the gas shut-off cock.

• Turn the master switch installed ahead of the boiler to ON.
• The display turns on and indicates the function currently active (see Interpreting boiler status from display indications on page 10).
• Select the boiler operating mode: OFF/SUMMER/WINTER/CH ONLY (see button (C) in Fig. 1 Control panel on page 8).
• Set desired CH temperature (see CH function on page 11).
• Set desired DHW temperature (see DHW function on page 12).
• Set the desired room temperature on the ambient thermostat inside the home (if installed).
WARNING
After a prolonged period with the boiler not in use, and with LPG fired boilers in particular, some starting difficulty may be
encountered.
Before starting the boiler switch on another gas powered device (e.g. kitchen range).
Beware that even by following this procedure, the boiler might still experience some starting difficulties and shut down once or
twice. Press the “RESET” button to restore boiler operation.
1.3.2 Selecting the operating mode

To select the boiler operation mode press C Operating mode selection.
Whenever button is pressed, the following modes are enabled in sequence: "SUMMER", "WINTER", "CH ONLY", "OFF".
"SUMMER" operating status
When the "SUMMER" mode is enabled, only the DHW production function is active.
"WINTER" operating status
When the "WINTER" mode is enabled, both DHW and CH functions are active.
"CH ONLY" operating status
When the "CH ONLY" mode is enabled, only the heating water production function is active.
"OFF" operating status
When the "OFF" mode is enabled, no function is active.
1.3.3 CH function
To set the heating water temperature, press +/- CH buttons.
The CH temperature setting range is from 35°C to 78°C.
During temperature setting, the symbol flashes on the screen and the CH current temperature setting is displayed.
When the CH system requests heat from the boiler, the LCD displays the CH symbol and the current CH flow water temperature.
The waiting time between one boiler ignition and the following one, used to prevent boiler frequent turning on and off, ranges between 0 and
10 minutes (default value: 4 minutes), and can be edited with the P11 parameter.
Should water temperature in the system fall below set minimum value, between 35°C and 78°C (default value 40°C) to be edited with the P27
parameter, the waiting time is reset and the boiler re-ignites.
The burner ON symbol shows while the burner is operating.
11

1.3.4 DHW function

The DHW production function is enabled on the CTFS/CTN models and on RTFS/RTN models with external water heater (optional).
Such function has always priority over CH water supply.
To set the domestic hot water temperature, press DHW +/- buttons.
During temperature setting, the symbol flashes on the screen and the DHW current temperature setting is displayed.
The burner ON symbol shows while the burner is operating.
Models CTFS/CTN
For CTFS/CTN models, DHW temperature may be set within a range from +35 °C to +57 °C.
Available DHW litres per minute at the desired temperature depend on boiler heat output and water mains supply temperature, and can be
calculated according to the following formula:
l = DHW litre per min. = K/∆T
where:
K = 318 for model CTN 24
K = 333 for model CTFS 24
ΔT = hot water temperature – cold water temperature
For instance, with model CTFS 24, if the cold water is at 8°C and you want hot water at 38°C for a shower, the value of ΔT is:
∆T = 38°C - 8°C = 30°C
and the number of DHW litres per minute available at 38°C is:
l = 333/30 = 11.1 [litres per minute] (mixed water at the tap)
Models RTFS/RTN
In RTFS/RTN models featuring an external water heater (optional) and a boiler probe (optional, supplied by the manufacturer), the temperature
can be set within a range from +35 °C to +65 °C.
The water heater can be enabled or disabled to produce domestic hot water by pressing the C button for the operating state Selection.
Water heater is enabled when boiler is in one of the following operating modes: SUMMER, WINTER.
On RTFS and RTN models with external water heater (optional) and water heater probe (optional, supplied by the manufacturer), every 15
days the anti-legionella function will be enabled, consisting in raising the water heater temperature to 65°C for 30 minutes independent of
other settings.
1.3.5 Freeze protection function

This boiler is fitted with a freeze protection system, which works when the following functions are activated: OFF/SUMMER/WINTER/CH ONLY.
DANGER
The freeze protection function only protects the boiler, not the whole heating system.
The central heating system can be effectively protected against icing by using specific anti-freeze products that are suitable for multi-metal
systems.
WARNING
Do not use anti-freeze products for car engines, and check the effectiveness of the product used over time.
In case burner cannot be ignited due to the lack of gas, the freeze protection functions are anyway enabled through the circulation pumps.
1.3.5.1 Flow freeze protection function
When the heating water temperature sensor detects a water temperature of +5 °C, the boiler switches on and stays on at its minimum heat
output until the temperature reaches +30 °C or 15 minutes have elapsed.
The pump continues to operate even if the boiler shuts down.

1.3.5.2 DHW plate heat exchanger anti-frost function (RTFS/RTN)

When the DHW temperature sensor detects a water temperature of +5°C, the boiler switches on and stays on at its minimum heat output until
the DHW temperature reaches +10°C or 15 minutes have elapsed (the deviating valve is in the DHW position).
During the DHW freeze protection operation the temperature detected by the flow probe is constantly checked, and in case it reaches +60 °C
the burner is switched off.
The burner is switched on again if the operation request in anti-freeze mode is still present and the flow temperature is below +60°C.
1.3.5.3 Water heater anti-frost function (RTFS/RTN)

On RTFS and RTN models with external water heater (optional) and water heater probe (optional, supplied by the manufacturer), the anti-frost
function also protects the water heater.
When water heater probe detects a water temperature of +5 °C, the boiler switches on and stays on at its minimum heat output until the
temperature of the water heater water reaches +10 °C or 15 minutes have elapsed.
During the water heater anti-freeze operation the temperature detected by the flow probe is constantly checked, and in case it reaches +60°C
the burner is switched off.
The burner is switched on again if the operation request in anti-freeze mode is still present and the flow temperature is below +60°C.
1.3.6 Anti-seize function

If the boiler remains inactive and connected to the power mains, the circulation pump and the deviating valve will be shortly enabled every
24 hours so as to avoid any shut-down.
The same applies to the relay which can be freely programmed whenever this latter is used to power a recirculation pump or a deviating valve.
1.3.7 Timed post-circulation function

After each central heating, DHW or freeze protection request, the pump continues to be powered for 30 seconds.
If a new central heating, DHW or freeze protection request is received during this period, the post-circulation function is cancelled in order to
fulfil the request.
1.3.8 Timed post-ventilation function

After each central heating, DHW or freeze protection request, the fan continues to work for 10 seconds.
If a new operating request is received during this period, the post-ventilation function is cancelled in order to fulfil the request.
1.3.9 Operation with external probe (optional)

Boiler can be connected to a probe measuring the external temperature (optional - not compulsory, supplied by the manufacturer).
Once the external temperature value is known, the boiler will automatically adjust the heating water temperature: increasing it as the
external temperature decreases and decreasing it as the external temperature increases. This will both improve room comfort and reduce fuel
consumption. The maximum temperature is respected all the same.
This boiler operating mode is called "sliding temperature operation".
Heating water temperature varies based on a programme written inside boiler electronic microprocessor.
When working with an external probe, the CH +/- buttons are no longer used to set heating water temperature, but to edit fictitious ambient
temperature, namely the desired theoretical temperature.
During temperature setting, the fictitious ambient temperature symbol flashes on the display and the value being set is shown.
For optimal curve adjustment, a position close to +20 °C is recommended.
For further details on "cruising temperature operation", refer to paragraph Installation of the (optional) external probe and sliding temperature
operation on page 46.
WARNING
Only original external temperature probes supplied by the manufacturer must be used.
The use of non-original external probes, not supplied by the manufacturer, may affect the operation of the external probe itself
and of the boiler.
13

1.3.10 Operation with (optional) remote control

The boiler can also be connected to a Remote Control (optional - not compulsory, supplied by the manufacturer) so as to manage several
boiler parameters, such as:
• boiler status selection.
• ambient temperature selection.
• CH system water temperature selection.
• DHW temperature selection.
• CH system and (optional) external water heater activation time programming
• boiler diagnostics display.
• boiler reset and other parameters.
To connect the Remote Control, see Installation and operation with Open Therm Remote Control (optional) on page43.
WARNING
Only use original Remote Control Units supplied by the manufacturer.
The use of non-original remote controls, not supplied by the manufacturer, may affect Remote Control and boiler operation.
1.4 Boiler shut-down

The boiler shuts down automatically if a malfunction occurs.
To determine the possible causes of malfunction (see Troubleshooting on page 59).
Below is a list of shut-down types and the procedure to follow in each case.
1.4.1 Burner shut-down

Fault code E01 is displayed flashing on the display in the event of burner shut-down due to missing flame.
If this happens, proceed as follows:
• check that the gas cock is open and light a kitchen gas ring for example to check the gas supply;
• once having checked if the fuel is available, press the Reset button to restore burner operation: if, after two starting attempts, the boiler still
fails to start and enters the shut-down mode again, contact a service centre or qualified personnel for maintenance.
WARNING
If the burner shuts down frequently, there is a recurring malfunction, so contact a service centre or a qualified service engineer.
1.4.2 Shut-down due to overheating

Fault code E02 is shown on the LCD display in the event of flow water temperature overheating. Contact a service centre or a qualified service
engineer to carry out the maintenance.
14

1.4.3 Shut-down due to incorrect air/flue gas system draught

The boiler is equipped with a safety device for flue gas exhaustion check.
Should an air/flue gas system malfunction occur, the control device will shut-down the boiler by interrupting the gas supply to the boiler and
the LCD will display the E03 code.
To resume the operation press Reset (see Fig. 1 Control panel on page 8).
In case of repeated stops, it is necessary to have the boiler and the air intake/flue gas venting ducts checked by a service centre or a qualified
service engineer.
1.4.4 Shut-down due to low water pressure

Fault code E04 is displayed on the LCD display in the event of shut-down triggered by the water pressure switch.
Fill the system by working on filler cock (A) (see Fig. 2 Filler cock).
Water pressure must be 1-1.3 bars while the boiler is cold.
In order to restore water pressure, proceed as follows:
• Turn the filler cock anticlockwise to allow water to enter the boiler;
• Keep the filler cock open until the pressure gauge shows a value of 1÷1.3 bar;
• Turn cock clockwise to close it.
Should boiler shuts down frequently occur it means there is boiler malfunction in progress. Contact qualified personnel or an authorised
service centre for maintenance.
DANGER
Make sure you close filler cock (A) carefully after filling procedure is completed.
If you do not, when the pressure increases, the safety valve may activate and discharge water.
Fig. 2 Filler cock
15

1.4.5 Alarm due to temperature probe malfunction

The following fault codes are shown on the display in the event of burner shut-down due to a temperature probe fault:
• E05 for the CH probe: in this case the boiler does not work.
• E06 for the DHW probe (CTFS/CTN models only); in this case the boiler works in heating mode only, whereas the DHW function is
disabled.
• E12 for the water heater probe (RTFS/RTN models); in this case the boiler does not work.
WARNING
In any case, contact a service centre or qualified personnel for maintenance.
1.4.6 Alarm due to (optional) Remote Control connection malfunction

The boiler recognises whether or not there is a Remote Control (optional).
If the boiler does not receive information from the Remote Control after the Remote Control itself is connected, the boiler attempts to re-
establish communication for 60 seconds, after which the fault code E31 is shown on the remote control display.
The sealed combustion chamber boiler does not need any specific recommendations to be applied concerning the boiler room or openings
and ventilation provided to the boiler room.
WARNING
Contact a service centre or a qualified service engineer to carry out the maintenance.
The remote control can indicate faults or shutdown conditions and can also restore boiler operation after shutdown up to a maximum of 3
times in a 24 hour period.
If the maximum number of attempts is reached, fault code E99 is shown on the boiler display.
To reset error E99, disconnect and re-connect again boiler from/to power mains.
1.5 Maintenance
WARNING
The boiler must be serviced periodically as indicated in the relevant section of this manual.
Boilers must be maintained by qualified personnel only, under the requirements set forth by the prevailing rules.
1.6 Notes for the user
WARNING
The user may only access parts of the boiler that can be reached without using special equipment or tools. The user is not authorised
to remove the boiler casing or to operate on any internal parts.
No one, including qualified personnel, is authorised to modify the boiler.
The manufacturer shall not be held responsible in case of damage to people, animals, or property due to failure to follow the above
mentioned instructions.
If the boiler remains inactive and the power supply is switched off for a long time, it may be necessary to reset the pump.
This involves removing the casing and accessing internal parts, so it must only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel.
Pump failure can be avoided by adding to the water filming additives suitable for multi-metal systems.

3. Instructions for the installer
3.1 Installation standards

This boiler must be installed in compliance with the laws and standards in force in the country of installation, which are herein considered as
entirely transcribed.
To find out about the gas category and technical specifications, refer to operation data and general features specified in the previous pages.
DANGER
Accessories and spare parts for installation and service procedures are to be supplied by the Manufacturer.
Should non original accessories and spare parts be employed, boiler proper performance is not guaranteed.
3.1.1 Packaging
Boiler is shipped in a sturdy cardboard box.
Remove boiler from cardboard box and check its integrity.
The packing materials can be recycled. Disposal must be managed via appropriate waste collection sites.
Keep packaging out of reach of children, as it may be dangerous.
The manufacturer shall not be held responsible in case of damage to people, animals, or property due to failure to follow the above mentioned
instructions.
Packaging includes one plastic bag containing:
• boiler installation, use and maintenance manual;
• the template for mounting the boiler on a wall (see Fig. 9 Paper template).
• 2 screws and relevant wall blocks for fixing the boiler to the wall;
• 4 diaphragms for flue gas venting: diameters from 39.8; 41; 44 and 49 mm (CTFS/RTFS, only);
• a closing plug with seal (CTFS/RTFS only).
3.2 Choosing where to install the boiler

The following must be taken into account when choosing where to install the boiler:
• indications contained in paragraph Air intake and flue gas venting system on page 32 and its sub-paragraphs.
• check the wall for sturdiness, avoiding weak areas;
• do not install the boiler over appliances which may affect boiler operation (e.g. cookers, which produce steam and grease, washing
machines etc.).
• Do not install natural draught boilers in locations with a corrosive or very dusty atmosphere, such as hairdresser salons, laundries etc., as
this may severely reduce the lifespan of the components of the boiler.
28
Instructions for the installer

3.3 Positioning the boiler

Each boiler is supplied with a paper template, found inside the packaging (see Fig. 9 Paper template).
The template allows you to ensure that the pipes connected to the CH system, the DHW system and the gas mains, and the air intake/flue gas
venting ducts are all laid out correctly during the realisation of the water system and before installation of the boiler.
This template is made of heavy-duty paper and must be fixed, with the help of a level, onto the wall where the boiler is to be mounted.
The template provides all the indications required to drill the boiler mounting holes to the wall, procedure which is done using two screws
and wall blocks.
The lower area of the template shows where to mark the exact point at which the couplings are to be positioned for boiler connection to the
gas supply pipe, cold water mains supply pipe, hot water outlet, CH flow and return pipes.
The upper area of the template shows where air intake and flue gas ducts are to be positioned.
DANGER
Since the temperature of the walls on which the boiler is mounted and external temperature of coaxial air/flue gas system do not
exceed 60°C, no minimum distance from flammable walls is to be accounted for.
For boilers with split air intake and flue gas venting ducts, in the case of proximity with flammable walls and passages through
walls, apply insulating material between the wall and the flue gas venting duct.

3.4 Installing the boiler
DANGER
Before connecting the boiler to CH and DHW networks, clean the pipes carefully.
Before commissioning a NEW system, clean it to remove any metal chips due to machining and welding, and any oil and grease that
might negatively affect boiler operation or even damage it in case they get inside it.
Before commissioning a RECONDITIONED system (where radiators have been added, the boiler has been replaced, etc.) thoroughly
clean it to remove any sludge and residues.
Clean the system using standard non acid products, available on the market.
Do not use solvents as they could damage system components.
Furthermore, in the central heating system (either new or reconditioned), it is always advisable to add to water a suitable
percentage of corrosion protectants for multi-metal systems that will create a protective film onto all internal surfaces.
In order to install the boiler proceed as follows:

• affix the template to the wall.
• Check that 1 cm to the right and 1 cm to the left of the boiler is left for casing removal;
• Drill two 12 mm diameter holes in the wall for the wall plugs, insert the wall plugs supplied with the boiler and apply and tighten the screws;
• If necessary, provide holes in the wall to allow air intake and/or flue gas venting pipes to pass through it;
• Position the connections for the gas mains pipe G, the cold water inlet pipe F, the hot water outlet pipe C (CTFS/CTN), the hot water flow
pipe M and return pipe R, as indicated at the bottom of the template;
• Hook the boiler to the previously fitted screws;
• Connect the boiler to the feed pipes (see Hydraulic connections on page 41);
• Connect the boiler to the air intake and flue gas venting system (see Air intake and flue gas venting system on page 32);
• connect power supply, ambient thermostat (when available) and other available accessories (refer to the following paragraphs).

3.12.1 Installation of the (optional) external probe and sliding temperature operation
The boiler can be connected to an (optional) external temperature probe (optional, provided by the manufacturer) for sliding temperature
operation.
WARNING
Only original external temperature probes supplied by the manufacturer must be used.
If non-original external temperature probes are used, correct operation of the boiler and external probe cannot be guaranteed.
The external temperature probe must be connected by means of a double insulated wire, minimum cross-section 0.35 sq.mm.
The external probe must be connected to terminals (5) and (6) of boiler electronic board.
WARNING
The temperature probe cables must NOT be routed together with power cables.
The temperature probe must be installed on an outside wall facing NORTH - NORTH EAST, in a position protected from weather.
Do not install near a window, ventilation openings or sources of heat.
The external temperature probe automatically modifies the CH flow temperature in relation to:
• Measured external temperature.
• Selected thermoregulation curve.
• Selected fictitious ambient temperature.
The thermoregulation curve is selected via parameter P10.
During adjustment, the set value will flash on LCD. Such value can also be read as parameter TSP10 on the Remote Control (when installed).
The relation between parameter TSP10 setting and the thermoregulation curve coefficient is the following:
• coefficient = TSP10 value / 84.67
The fictitious ambient temperature is set using CH +/- buttons that, with external probe installed, no longer work to set the heating water
temperature (see Operation with external probe (optional) on page 13).
Through boiler parameter P30 it is possible to display the value of the outside temperature detected by the external probe.
46

The figure shows the curves for a fictitious ambient temperature of 20°C.Parameter P10 allows selecting the curve value shown (see Fig. 20
Thermoregulation curves).
If fictitious ambient temperature value is edited on boiler display, the curves shift up or down, respectively, by the same amount.
With a fictitious ambient temperature setting of 20°C, for example, if you select the curve corresponding to parameter 1 and the outdoor
temperature is - 4°C, the CH flow temperature will be 50°C.

3.13 Filling the system

Once all boiler connections have been completed, CH system can be filled.
The procedure is to be cautiously carried out, following each step:
• Open the bleeding valves on all radiators and verify the boiler automatic valve operation.
• Gradually open the relevant filler cock, checking any automatic bleeding valves installed in the system properly work (see Fig. 2 Filler cock).
• Close all radiator bleeding valves as soon as water starts coming out.
• Check on pressure gauge that water pressure reaches the 1÷1.3 bar reading.
• Shut the filler cock and bleed any air out again, by opening the air bleeding valves on radiators.
• Start the boiler and bring the system to working temperature, stop the pump, and repeat air bleeding procedure.
• Allow the system to cool and restore water pressure to 1÷1.3 bars.
WARNING
After long inactivity of the boiler, its pump may be stuck.
Before starting up the boiler, make sure that the pump is operating, with the following procedure:
• Remove the boiler outer casing.
• Unscrew the protective cap at the centre of the pump motor.
• When the protection cap is removed, some water may flow out.
• Put a screwdriver into the hole and manually rotate the circulation pump shaft clockwise.
• Once the unblocking operation is completed, screw the protective cap back on and check for water leaks.
• Once the unblocking operation is completed, screw the protective cap back on and check for water leaks.
WARNING
The low water safety pressure switch will not electrically enable the burner ignition when water pressure is below 0.4-0.6 bar.
The CH system water pressure must not be lower than 1 bar. Otherwise, fill the heating system.
The procedure is to be followed while the system is cold.
Pressure gauge is used to read pressure inside the heating circuit.
WARNING
As for water treating in the domestic heating systems in order to optimise efficiency and safety, ensure a long life, trouble-free
operation of auxiliary equipment, minimise power consumption, thereby integrating the standards and rules in force in the
country of installation, it is recommended to use specific products suitable for multi-metal heating systems.

4. Testing the boiler
4.1 Preliminary checks

Before testing the boiler, it is recommended to check the following:
• The flue gas venting duct and the relevant terminal are installed in conformity with the instructions: with the boiler operating, there must
be no leakage of combustion by-products from any of the gaskets.
• the supply power to the boiler must be 230 V ~ 50 Hz;
• The system is correctly filled with water (pressure gauge reading 1 to 1.3 bar).
• any shut-off cocks in the system pipes are open;
• The mains gas type is correct for the boiler calibration: convert the boiler to the available gas when necessary; this operation must only be
performed by qualified technical personnel.
• the gas supply cock is open;
• there are no fuel gas leaks;
• the main switch installed ahead of the boiler is turned on;
• The 3-bar safety valve is not stuck.
• there are no water leaks;
• The pump has not seized.
