For your Safety (continued)
Safety
WARNING
As there are no user-serviceable parts on the boiler,
burner or control, the end-user must not perform
service activities or adjustments of any kind on system
components. Failure to heed this warning can cause
property damage, severe personal injury, or loss of life.
CAUTION
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, do not disconnect the electrical supply to the
pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location
external to the appliance.
WARNING
The operator/ultimate owner is required to have the
heating boiler, burners, and controls checked, as a
minimum once per year, by the original installer or
by a competent heating contractor familiar with the
equipment. Defects must be corrected immediately.
CAUTION
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified heating contractor to
inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been under
water.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, service, or
maintenance can cause flue products to flow into
living space. Flue products contain poisonous carbon
monoxide gas which can cause nausea or asphyxiation
resulting in severe personal injury or loss of life.
WARNING
Do Not operate the boiler without the front cover in place.
Carbon monoxide
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission strongly
recommends the installation of carbon monoxide detectors
in buildings in which gas-burning equipment is installed.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless gas, which
may be produced during incomplete combustion of fuel and/
or when the flame does not receive an adequate supply of
combustion air.
Carbon monoxide can cause severe personal injury or loss of
life.
Therefore, carbon monoxide detectors that are in compliance
with a nationally recognized standard (e.g. ANSI/UL 2034,
CSA 6.19 latest edition) should be installed and maintained
in buildings that contain gas-burning equipment.
Note: Viessmann does not test any detectors and makes
no representation regarding any brand or type of
detector.
For safe operation
We recommend that you frequently:
- Check for debris which could obstruct the flow of
flue gases. The vent or chimney must not be blocked.
A blocked or partially blocked vent or chimney can
cause flue gases to leak into the structure.
Flue gases leaking into the house can cause injury
or loss of life. Blocked or partially blocked chimneys
must have the blockage removed by a qualified
heating contractor.
- Check pressure gage for correct system (water)
pressure. Check for water on the floor from the
discharge pipe of the pressure relief valve or any
other pipe, pipe joint, valve or air vent.
- Check for moisture, water, or appearance of rust
on the flue gas pipes, their joints as well as vent
dampers, or side wall vent terminals (if so equipped).
- Ensure that nothing is obstructing the flow of
combustion and ventilation air and no chemicals,
garbage, gasoline, combustible materials, flammable
vapors and liquids are stored (not even temporarily)
in the vicinity of the boiler.
- Do not allow unsupervised children near the boiler.
Service/inspection of the boiler and the system is
recommended once a year. Maintenance, service and
cleaning are specified in the Installation Instructions.
Before the heating season begins, it is recommended that
the boiler and burner be serviced by a qualified heating
contractor. Service contracts may be established through
gas suppliers or other licensed contractors in your area.
WARNING
This product burns gas to produce heat. The appliance
must be properly installed, operated and maintained
to avoid exposure to appreciable levels of carbon
monoxide and the installer is required to confirm that
at least one carbon monoxide alarm is installed in the
living space before the appliance is put into operation.
It is important for the carbon monoxide alarms to be
installed, maintained, and replaced following the alarm
manufacturer’s instructions and applicable local codes.

For your Safety (continued)
Safety
Frozen water pipe hazard
Your heating boiler is designed to provide a warm and
comfortable living environment. It is not designed to
ensure against freezing of water pipes.
The boiler is equipped with several safety devices that
are designed to shut down the boiler and to prevent it
from restarting in the event of various unsafe conditions.
If your boiler remains off for an extended period of time
during cold weather, water pipes may freeze and burst,
resulting in extensive water damage and conditions in
which mold could grow. Certain molds are known to
cause respiratory problems, as well as to pose other
serious health risks. In case of water damage, immediate
measures should be taken to dry out affected areas as
quickly as possible to prevent mold from developing.
If your home will be unattended for an extended period
of time during cold weather, you should...
Shut off the water supply to the building, drain the
water pipes and add an antifreeze for potable water
to drain traps and toilet tanks. Open faucets where
appropriate.
Or..
Have someone check the building frequently during
cold weather and call a qualified service agency if
required.
Or...
Install a reliable remote temperature sensor that will
notify somebody of freezing conditions within the
home.
WARNING
Failure to protect against frozen pipes could result in
burst water pipes, serious property damage and/or
personal injury. Boiler may shut down. Do not leave
your home unattended for long periods of time during
freezing weather conditions without turning off the
water supply and draining water pipes or otherwise
protecting against the risk of frozen pipes.
Replacement components, spare and wear parts
Components which are not tested with the heating
system may damage the heating system or affect its
functions. Installation or replacement may only be
performed by a qualified heating contractor.
IMPORTANT
Installation area conditions
Ensure ambient temperatures are higher than 32°F (0°C)
and lower than 104°F (40°C).
Prevent the air from becoming contaminated by
halogenated hydrocarbons (e.g. as contained in
paint solvents or cleaning fluids) and excessive dust
(e.g. through grinding or polishing work).
Combustion air for the heating process, and
ventilation of the boiler room must be free of
corrosive contaminants. To that end, any boiler
must be installed in an area that has no chemical
exposure.
The list below indicates the main, currently known
sources.
Avoid continuously high levels of humidity
(e.g. through frequent drying of laundry).
Never close existing ventilation openings.
Sources of combustion and ventilation air contaminants
Areas likely to contain contaminants:
New building construction
Swimming pools
Remodelling areas, hobby rooms
Garages with workshops
Furniture refinishing areas
Dry cleaning/laundry areas and establishments

Maintenance
Inspection/Cleaning/Maintenance
Safety valve (DHW tank)
The safety valve function should be checked every six
months by venting, either by the system user or the
local heating contractor. The valve seat may become
contaminated (see the valve manufacturer’s instructions).
Potable water filter (if installed)
To maintain high hygienic standards, proceed as follows:
H Replace filter element on non-back flushing filters every
six months (visual inspection every two months).
H On back flushing filters, back flush every two months.
Cleaning
You can clean the surface of the programming unit with
a microfiber cloth. All equipment can be cleaned with
a commercially available domestic cleaning agent (non-
scouring).
Inspection and maintenance
Inspection and maintenance of your heating system is
recommended.
Regular maintenance ensures trouble free, energy
efficient, environmentally responsible and safe heating.
Your heating system must be serviced by an authorised
contractor at least every 2 years. For this, we advise
you to arrange an inspection and maintenance contract
with your local heating contractor.
Boiler
Increasing boiler contamination raises the flue gas
temperature and thereby increases energy losses.
For that reason, all boilers should be cleaned annually.
DHW tank
Maintenance and cleaning should be carried out no later
than two years after commissioning and thereafter as
required.
Only a qualified heating contractor should clean the
inside of a DHW tank and the DHW connections.
Refill any water treatment equipment (e.g. water softener
or water filtration unit) on time, if such equipment is
installed in the cold water supply of the DHW tank.
Observe the manufacturer’s instructions.

Additional Information
Terminology
Setback mode (reduced heating mode)
See “Reduced heating mode”.
Heating program
With the heating program you determine whether you
heat your rooms and DHW, or only heat DHW or whether
you shut down your heating system with frost protection
monitoring.
You can select the following heating programs:
H “Heating and DHW”
The rooms are heated and DHW is provided (winter
mode).
H “Only DHW”
DHW is provided but there is no central heating
(summer mode).
H “Standby mode”
Frost protection for the boiler and the DHW tank is
enabled, no central heating, no DHW heating.
Note: No heating program is available for central heating
without DHW heating. When you want central
heating, hot water is generally also required (winter
mode). If you do want just central heating, select
the heating program “Heating and DHW” and set
the DHW temperature to 50°F (10°C) (see page
19). This means that you will not heat DHW
unnecessarily but the DHW tank is protected
against frost.
Heating curve
Heating curves illustrate the relationship between the
outside temperature, room temperature (set value) and
boiler water or (heating circuit) flow temperature.
The lower the outside temperature, the higher the
boiler water or (heating circuit) flow temperature.
In order to guarantee sufficient heat and minimum fuel
consumption at any outside temperature, the conditions
of your building and your heating system must be taken
into consideration. The heating curve is set by your
heating contractor for this purpose.
Note: If your heating system includes heating circuits
with mixing valves, then the flow temperature for the
heating circuit without mixing valves is higher by a
selected differential than the flow temperature for the
heating circuits with mixing valves.
The illustrated heating curves apply with the following
settings:
H Heating curve level = 0
H Standard room temperature (set value) = 68°F (20ºC)
Operating status
In the heating program “Heating and DHW”, the operating
status changes from “Standard heating mode” (see page
41) to the operating status “Reduced heating mode”
(see page 41) and vice versa. The times for the operating
status change are defined when the time program is set.
Extension kit for heating circuit with mixing valve
Assembly (accessory) for controlling a heating circuit
with mixing valves. See “Mixing valves”.
Mixing Valve
A mixing valve mixes the water heated in the boiler
with the cooled water returning from the heating circuit.
The water, heated to the right temperature in line with
demand, is delivered to the heating circuit by the heating
circuit pump. The control unit adjusts the heating circuit
flow temperature via the mixing valve to the various
conditions, e.g. different outside temperature.
Heating circuit pump
Circulation pump for the circulation of the heating water
in the heating circuit.

Example:
For outside temperature 7°F (-14°C):
A Underfloor heating system, slope 0.2 to 0.8
B Low temperature heating system, slope 0.8 to 1.6
C Heating system with a boiler water temperature in
excess of 167°F (75°C), slope 1.6 to 2.0
Heating circuit
A heating circuit is a sealed circuit between the boiler
and radiators, in which the heating water circulates.
A heating system may comprise several heating circuits.
For example, one heating circuit for the rooms occupied
by you and one heating circuit for the rooms of a separate
apartment.

Terminology (continued)
Factory settings: Slope = 1.4 and level = 0.
A Changing the slope: The steepness of the heating
curve changes
B Changing the level: The heating curves are shifted

Actual temperature
Current temperature at the time of the scan; e.g. actual
DHW temperature.
Night setback
See “Reduced heating mode”.
Standard heating mode
When you are in the house during the day, you can heat
the rooms in standard heating mode. Set the periods
using the time program for central heating. During these
periods, the rooms are heated to the standard room
temperature.
Standard room temperature
When you are in the house during the day, set the
standard room temperature (see page 17).
Open flue operation
The combustion air is drawn from the room where the
boiler is installed.
Balanced flue operation
The combustion air is drawn from outside the building.
Reduced heating mode
When you are out or during the night, you can heat the
rooms in reduced heating mode (setback mode). Set the
periods using the time program for central heating. During
these periods, the rooms are heated to a reduced room
temperature.
Reduced room temperature
When you are out or during the night, set the reduced
room temperature (see page 17). See also “Reduced
heating mode”.
Safety valve
A safety device that must be installed by your heating
contractor in the cold water pipe. The safety valve opens
automatically to prevent excess pressure in the DHW
tank.
Solar circuit pump
In conjunction with solar thermal systems. The solar
circuit pump delivers the cooled heat transfer medium
from the DHW tank indirect coil to the collectors.
Set temperature
Default temperature that should be reached;
e.g. set DHW temperature.
Summer mode
Heating program “Only DHW”.
At warmer times of the year, i.e. when rooms do not
have to be heated, you can disable heating mode.
The boiler remains enabled for DHW heating.
Your contact
Contact your local contractor if you have any questions
regarding the maintenance and repair of your system.
You may, for example, find local contractors on the
internet under www.viessmann.com.
Tank primary pump
Circulation pump for heating the DHW in the DHW tank.
Drinking water filter
A device that removes solids from the water. The drinking
water filter is installed in the cold water pipe upstream of
the DHW tank or the instantaneous water heater.
Weather-compensated mode
In weather-compensated mode, the heating flow
temperature is controlled according to the outside
temperature. This means that no unnecessary heat is
generated in order to heat the rooms to the set room
temperature you selected.
The outside temperature is captured and transmitted to
the control unit by a sensor fitted outside the building.
DHW recirculation pump
The DHW recirculation pump transports the hot water
around a circuit between the DHW tank and the draw-
off points (e.g. hot tap). This makes hot water available
quickly at the draw-off point.
