Note: The boiler is fitted with a Safety Temperature cut-out that protects the boiler from failure. The Safety Temperature cut-out (item 6 
above) cuts the power to the boiler once the temperature reaches 100

0

C. Once this occurs the boiler will not operate and a service engi-

neer would need to be called to re-set the boiler. However further investigation is required to identify the cause of the fault.
