1.1

Introduction

1. Your Baxi Combi 130 HE is a gas fired, room sealed, powered flue condensing combination boiler, providing central heating for your home and mains fed domestic hot water. It is fully automatic and does not have a pilot light. Frost and pump protection are an integral part of the appliance.

2. Priority is given to the hot water mode - when a hot water tap is turned on the supply of heat to the central heating circuit is interrupted.

3. Intelligent Pre-Heat: The boiler incorporates an intelligent pre-heat feature. This ensures that the domestic hot water to the tap is pre-heated only when the user required hot water the previous week. The pre-heat switches the boiler on for approximately 1 minute every 40 minutes when required. This function can be switched off if not required. During the first week of operation from power on, no pre-heating will occur.

3. A shortened version of these operating instructions appears on the reverse of the lower door panel. A label gives details of the model, serial number, G.C.N

o and the manufacturer’s name and address.

1.2

Operating the Boiler

1. Ensure that the electricity and gas supplies are turned on.

2. Remove the lower door panel (Fig. 1).

3. Press the Summer/Winter mode button ( )

(Fig. 2) until the required setting is shown on the

Control Panel indicates the summer setting and only hot water will be provided when a tap or shower is turned on.

indicates the winter setting and the central heating will operate on demand or the hot water will be provided when a tap or shower is turned on.

4. Priority is given to domestic hot water. The boiler control system has an automatic time delay built in for central heating. It is normal that following a shutdown by the boiler thermostat, timer or roomstat, there is a delay of approximately 3 minutes, before relighting.

5. The boiler will light automatically on demand.

6. The orange indicator on the badge will light when the boiler is operating and the main burner is on (Fig. 2).

7. When there is no demand, the boiler remains permanently in standby mode. NOTE: The boiler is still live. The boiler can only be turned off by means of the isolation switch.

Central Heating: The boiler will automatically achieve the optimum flow temperature for maximum comfort and efficiency.

1. However, in the case of the elderly, infirm or very young, a lower radiator surface temperature may be desirable. If so, the central heating flow temperature can be adjusted between 45° C ± 3°

C minimum and 82° C ± 5° C maximum.

2. To set the required temperature, press and hold the Central Heating Control Button ( ) whilst adjusting the necessary Temperature

Control Button (Fig. 4).

Domestic Hot Water: The boiler will automatically achieve the optimum flow temperature for maximum comfort and efficiency.

1. The temperature of the domestic hot water can be adjusted between 35° C ± 5° C minimum and

55° C ± 5° C maximum.

2. To set the required temperature, press and hold the Domestic Hot Water Control Button ( ) whilst adjusting the necessary Temperature

Control Button (Fig. 4).

3. At a DHW temperature set point of 45° C the flow rate can be reduced down to as low as 3.5

litres/min without any degradation of the hot water control. No DHW will be provided at less than 3.5

litres/min.

NOTE: Two status indicators can be seen through the badge (Fig. 3).

Resetting the Appliance

1. The appliance only needs resetting if the red flame failure light is on (Fig. 3).

2. If the red flame failure light is on, press the failure light goes off.

3. If this occurs persistently consult a competent person (see Definition of competence page 9).

2.0 Care of the Boiler

2.1

Central Heating System Pressure

1. The water pressure in the central heating system is indicated by the pressure gauge.

2. The normal operating pressure is in the range between 1 and 2·5 bar (Fig. 5).

3. A pressure of 3 bar or greater indicates a fault

(Fig. 6). The safety pressure relief valve will operate at a pressure of 3 bar. It is important that a

Competent Person (see Definition of competence page 9) is contacted as soon as possible.

4. The MINIMUM pressure for correct operation is

1 bar. If the pressure falls below this it may indicate a leak on the central heating system

(Fig. 7).

5. The system must be re-pressurised by a

Competent Person (see Definition of competence page 9).

2.2

Frost Protection

1. If a frost thermostat has been fitted or the system frost protection has been enabled, then to operate correctly and protect your system, the gas and electricity must be left on and the appliance set in the winter mode (see section 1.2).

2.3

Cleaning the Outercase

The painted panels should be wiped with a damp cloth and then dried completely. DO NOT USE

ABRASIVE CLEANING AGENTS.

2.4

Spare Parts

1. Any repairs to the boiler will usually be the responsibility of the Installer during the guarantee period after which spare parts may be obtained through approved Baxi stockists if required.

2. Quote the appliance name, model number and where possible the part number when ordering spares. A short parts list is included in the

Installation and Servicing Instructions.

Guarantee

1. Your Baxi Combi 130 HE is designed and produced to meet all the relevant Standards.

2. Baxi provide a 12 month guarantee on the boiler. The guarantee operates from the date installation is completed for the customer who is the original user.

3. To maximise the benefit from our guarantee we urge you to return the reply-paid guarantee registration.

4. This does not in any way prejudice your rights at Common Law. Such rights between the customer and the installer or supplier from whom the unit was purchased remain intact.

Any component or part which becomes defective during the guarantee period as a result of faulty workmanship or material whilst in normal use will be repaired or replaced free of charge.

2.6

Servicing your Appliance

1. For reasons of safety and economy your boiler should be serviced annually. Servicing must be performed by a competent person (see

Definition of competence page 9).

Clearances around the Boiler

(Figs. 8 & 9)

1. The minimum clear spaces needed around the boiler measured from the casing are as follows:

(For Servicing)

(In Operation)

2. These areas must not be obstructed in any way. Blocking the clearance spaces may result in the boiler overheating and damage may occur.

3. The gas burning compartment of your boiler is completely sealed from the room in which it is fitted. Products from the combustion of gas are vented to the outside through the flue terminal which must be kept free from obstruction as this would interfere with the correct operation of the boiler.

4. Where the appliance is installed in a cupboard or compartment no air vents are

required. The label affixed to the front of the boiler must not be removed. The information will be required by service engineers in the future.

The compartment should be large enough to house the boiler and ancillary equipment only.

5. IT SHOULD NOT BE USED AS A STORAGE
