2.5.5 

Shut-down due to fan malfunction

Fan operation is constantly monitored and in case of malfunction the burner is turned off and the LCD 
shows the boiler shutdown symbol 

 with flashing E17 code. 

The above status continues until correct fan operation is restored. Should the boiler not re-start and still 
remain in the above status, contact the Fondital helpline UK or CORGI registered engineer with appropri-
ate competence for service.

2.5.6 

Alarm due to failure of temperature probes

Should the temperature probes malfunction, the boiler shutdown symbol 

 is displayed and the following codes may flash: 

-   E05, CH probe: the boiler does not.
-  E06, DHW probe (only KC model): the boiler only operates in CH mode, not DHW mode.
-  E1, storage probe (only KR model with optional external boiler and NTC temperature probe: 10 kΩ @ ß=3435): the boiler operates in 
CH, while DHW production is disabled.
Contact the Fondital helpline UK 08700 34 88 0 or CORGI registered engineer with appropriate competence for service.

2.5.7 

Flow alarm

Should flow temperature rise above 85 °C, the burner is turned off.
Normal boiler operation will be restored once flow temperature decreases below 85 °C.

2.5.8 

Alarm due to external probe malfunction

If the (optional) external temperature probe malfunctions, the boiler shutdown symbol 

 is displayed and 

code E3 flashes. 
The boiler will continue to operate, but the sliding temperature function is deactivated. The temperature 
of the CH water is regulated according to the position of regulator 

4

 (pic. 1), which in this case loses its 

function as a virtual ambient temperature regulator (see .4.6.).

Contact the Fondital helpline UK 08700 34 88 0 or CORGI registered engineer with appropriate competence for service.

2.6 

Maintenance

Have the boiler routinely serviced, following the schedule described in the relevant section of this manual.
Appropriate boiler maintenance ensures efficient operation, environment preservation, and safety for people, animals and 
objects.
CORGI registered  engineer with the appropriate competence only are to service the boiler.

Manufacturer recommends Customers to contact the Fondital helpline UK for maintenance and repairs; they are best qualified 
to implement such procedures. 

2.7 

Notes for the user

The user may only access boiler parts that can be reached without using technical equipment and/or tools: the user is not 
authorized to remove boiler casing and operate on any internal part.
No one, including qualified personnel, is authorized to modify the boiler.
The manufacturer shall not be held responsible for damage to people, animals, or property due to tampering or improper 
intervention to the boiler.

Should the boiler be left inactive for a long time and power main supply disconnected, the pump might need to be un-blocked.
Such servicing includes boiler casing removal and access to boiler internal parts, therefore only qualified personnel may per-
form it. Pump blockage may be avoided by adding inhibitor suitable for multi-metal systems to water.
