9.1 Error 

codes

For fault finding and fault rectification, the fault signal 
facility of the DIA system is normally adequate.
The following  fault codes are shown in the display and 
help with the localisation and rectification of a fault.

Code

Meaning

Cause

F.00

Interrruption - forward flow NTC

NTC-connector not plugged in or loose, NTC defective or earth 
connection loose/not plugged in

F.05

Interruption - exhaust gas sensor (accessories)

Exhaust gas sensor faulty or not plugged in
Replacement resistance not properly plugged in

F.10

Short circuit feed sensor

NTC plug faulty, mass short/short circuit in wiring harness

F.13

Short circuit storage tank sensor

NTC plug faulty, mass short/short circuit in wiring harness

F.15

Short circuit exhaust gas sensor (accessories)

Sensor faulty, short circuit in wiring harness, mass short

F.20

Safety temperature limiter has responded
Manual release on the STL

Feed NTC not thermally connected in
Unit will not switch off

F.27

External light: ionisation signal reports a flame in spite 
of gas valve being turned off

Gas solenoid valve defective, flame detector defective

F.28

Fault in unit start-up: Ignition attempts during start-up 
unsuccessful, the unit does not go into operation

Faults in the gas supply such as:
- Gas meter or gas pressure monitor faulty
- Air in gas
- Gas flow pressure too low
Fire protection cock has responded
Fault in gas fitting: Main gas magnet or Operator faulty
Incorrect gas setting

F.29

Fault in continuous operation: Flame goes off during 
operation and subsequent ignition attempts failed

Gas supply temporarily stopped, ignition transformer has spark 
failure, faulty earthing of appliance

F.36

Exhaust gas escape sensed by exhaust gas sensor

Exhaust gas route blocked or chimney draught too low (e.g. 
chimney too cold)(if an exhaust gas sensor is fitted)

F.42

No valid value for appliance variant

Short-circuit in cable harness

F.43

No valid value for appliance variant

Interruption in cable harness

F.60- 67

Irreversible electronics fault

Defective electronics

F.61

Electronics faulty or gas valve not connected correctly

Coil faulty, plug loose

F.64

Irreversible electronics fault

Electronics is faulty or short-circuit on feed sensor

Table 9.1  Error codes

If you need to make measurements on the unit 
electronics during fault rectification, observe the 
following instructions.

 Danger!

Danger of death by electrocution!
If the switchgear box is swung down and the 
back wall of the switchgear box is completely 
removed, the mains transformer lies directly in 
the easily accessible range of the hands.
For this reason, all measurements on the 
electronics must only be undertaken with the 
switchgear box back-wall in position.
Just open the cover over the connection area, 
all measuring points are accessible from here.

Error memory

The last ten errors are saved in the appliance error 
memory.
• Press the “

” button.

You can exit the error memory display as follows:
• Press the “

” button or

•  Do not press any button for about 4 minutes.
The current heating flow temperature appears in the 
display again.
