1 User Instructions These User Instructions are intended to assist the user in the operation of the Grant VortexBlue range of high efficiency oil fired boilers. Please refer to the section that applies to your particular boiler model. 1.1 VortexBlue Internal, Internal System Boilers and Ex ternal Modules The boiler is fully automatic once switched on, providing central heating (and also heating your domestic hot water if you have a hot water cylinder fitted). For guidance on how to use your Grant VortexBlue Internal boiler (or Internal System boiler) please refer to the User Instructions for the Grant Vortex Internal boiler. These are to be found at the back of the Installation Instructions supplied with the boiler. OTE The Grant VortexBlue Internal (and Internal System) boilers differ from the standard version of the Grant Vortex, as follows: a) The use of the Riello RDB BLU blue flame burner refer to Section 7 (installer section) of these Supplementary Instructions for details. b) A new boiler control system with electronic temperature control and LED boiler function indication. 1.1.1 Boiler Controls Please refer to the following for details of the boiler control panels. For all other details refer to the User Instructions supplied with the boiler. To access the control panel, pull off the front door panel from the boiler. The controls on the panel are as follows (refer to Figures 1-1 to 1-3 as appropriate). Boiler On/Off switch This switches the boiler on and off. The boiler O/OFF switch incorporates a 'mains on' neon which lights when the boiler is switched on. Please note that the 'mains on' neon does not necessarily indicate that the burner if firing. See Boiler Indicator Lights information in the next column. When the O/OFF switch is set to on, the POWER indicator LED on the control panel will also light. This also does not necessarily indicate that the boiler is firing. OTE If the O/OFF switch is set to off the boiler will OT supply central heating or heat domestic hot water (if a hot water cylinder is connected to the boiler). The built-in frost thermostat will also not operate. Heating Thermostat This control allows the temperature of the water leaving the boiler to heat the radiators (and domestic hot water) to be adjusted. This will be set by the installer to the optimum temperature for efficient operation of the boiler. It should be left set in this position. Boiler Indicator Lights These five red LEDs, located on the boiler control panel, indicate the operating situation of the boiler as below: PUMP Power to the system circulating pump POWER Mains power to the boiler is switched on DEMAD Demand for heating (and/or hot water) from the heating system controls. OVERHEAT Boiler overheat thermostat has operated and switched the boiler off. BURER Power to the burner for it to operate. Overheat Thermostat (Overheat Reset) The boiler is fitted with a safety overheat thermostat which will automatically switch off the boiler in the case of a control malfunction causing overheating. System Pressure Gauge (Internal System models only) This is to indicate the water pressure in the sealed heating system. 1.1.2 Lighting the Boiler Please follow the guidance for lighting the boiler given in the User Instructions supplied with the boiler. If the reset push-button LED on the burner indicates a lockout (refer to Section 8.3.3), press the reset button to attempt to re-start the burner. If the burner then operates correctly the lockout may have been caused by a temporary fault that has now cleared. If the lockout persists the cause of the fault should be diagnosed and rectified. OTE To operate the reset push-button it must be pressed in and briefly held (for at least one second) before releasing. 1.2 VortexBlue Combi Boilers (Internal and External models) For guidance on how to use your Grant VortexBlue Combi boiler, please refer to the User Instructions for the Grant Vortex Combi boiler (or External Combi boiler). These are to be found at the back of the Installation Instructions supplied with the boiler. Service Switch (External Modules only) A Service switch is fitted to the control panel to allow the Service Engineer to test-fire the boiler. Page 04 User Instructions

2 Introduction OTE These supplementary Instructions must be read in conjunction with the Vortex boiler Installation Instructions supplied with the boiler. Both the Vortex boiler Installation Instructions and these Supplementary Instructions must be left with the User on completion of Installation and Commissioning. 2.1 Update to Main Installation Instructions These Supplementary Instructions are designed to cover the differences between the Grant Vortex and the new Grant VortexBlue low Ox boilers, as much of the installation, commissioning, servicing and operation is identical to the standard Vortex boilers. The following sections of the Vortex Installation Instructions (supplied with the boiler) have not been changed and should be referred to during the installation and commissioning of this boiler: Section 3 Oil Supply and Storage Section 5 Pipe Connections Section 6 Condensate Disposal Section 7 Sealed Systems Refer to Section 2.6 of these instructions Section 9 Flues and Air Supply Section 14 Health and Safety Information Section 16 Guarantee 2.2 General The new Grant VortexBlue range of high efficiency low Ox oil fired boilers consists of 15 models including Internal, Internal System and External Modules as well as both Internal and External Combi boilers. All models are available in three outputs 21kW, 26kW and 36kW. The Internal, Internal System and External Modules are supplied factory set at the maximum outputs of 21kW, 26kW and 36kW but can be de-rated to a lower output on commissioning if required. Refer to Section 3.3 of these Supplementary Instructions for a full list of all models and outputs. 2.3 Low Ox Technology Grant VortexBlue boilers are designed to meet both the forthcoming European Ecodesign (ErP) emissions limits due to be introduced in September 2018, and to maintain the high efficiencies expected of Grant Vortex oil fired boilers. They combine the proven Grant condensing boiler technology with the Riello RDB BLU compact low Ox blue flame burners. Grant VortexBlue boilers can be used with all the Grant flue system options available for the standard Vortex boilers. Refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with the boiler for details. 2.4 Boiler Controls 2.4.1 Combi Boilers The Grant VortexBlue Combi boilers (internal and external) have the same electronic control system as fitted to the standard Vortex Combi models. All wiring details for external controls (programmers, room thermostats, etc.) are given in Section 8 of the Vortex Combi Installation Instructions provided with the boiler. 2.4.2 Internal boilers and External Modules The Grant VortexBlue Internal boilers and External Modules incorporate a new electronic control system based on the one used in the Grant Vortex Pro Combi boilers. This uses an electronic boiler thermostat and has LED lights to indicate the operating status of the boiler. For details on how to operate the boiler please refer to Section 1. Refer to Section 5 of these Supplementary Instructions for further details and electrical connection diagrams. OTE A service switch is fitted to the control panel of the external modules to allow the service engineer to test-fire the boiler. When set to 'O' the switch temporarily by-passes the external control system to operate the boiler. This is a 'momentary' or non-latching switch that cannot be left set to 'O'. The boiler will automatically revert to normal operation when 15 minutes have elapsed since it was last operated. If required, this 15 minute override period can be stopped by switching the boiler O/OFF switch 'OFF' and then back to 'O'. The boiler will then operate as normal under control of the external heating/hot water controls (timer, room thermostat or programmer). 2.5 Fuel Type All VortexBlue boilers are designed for use with Kerosene (Class C2) only. The use of any other fuel, e.g. Gas Oil (Class D), is not permitted with any of the VortexBlue boilers and may invalidate the product guarantee. 2.6 Sealed Systems The following sealed system kits are available for the external modules: VortexBlue External Grant UK product code VTXBFOM21 VTXBFOM26 VTXBFOM36 VTXOMSSKIT26 VTXOMSSKIT46 Page 06 Section 2: Introduction

4 Installation 4.1 General For full details on the installation of this boiler, please refer to the following sections of the Installation Instructions supplied with the boiler: Installation Information Pipe Connections Condensate Disposal Sealed Systems Flue System & Air Supply 5 Electrical 5.1 General For details on the electrical installation requirements for this boiler please refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with this boiler in conjunction with the information given below. 5.2 Frost Protection The Internal, Internal System and External Modules are all fitted with pre-set internal frost protection. This will automatically start the circulating pump if either: a) The air temperature (sensed on the boiler control PCB) falls below 5 C, or b) The water temperature (sensed by the boiler control thermistor) falls below 8 C If after fifteen minutes the air temperature exceeds 10 C or the water temperature exceeds 15 C the circulating pump will stop. However, if after fifteen minutes either the air or water temperature is less than 10 C, the burner is automatically fired until the water temperature reaches 30 C, when the burner stops and there is a pump overrun of two minutes. Also, to protect any exposed heating system pipework, it is recommended that an 'external' frost thermostat is also installed. This frost thermostat will operate in parallel with the internal frost protection of the boiler. It should be sited within the house in such a place that it can detect any rise and fall in the ambient air temperature, i.e. in a room with a radiator. Where the frost thermostat is installed outside the house (to protect a boiler installed in an external boiler room or garage) or in an attic, it is recommended that it be used in conjunction with a pipe thermostat to avoid unnecessary and wasteful overheating of the property. The pipe thermostat should be located on the boiler return pipe, and set to operate at 30 C. For connection details please refer to Figures 5-4 and 5-5 5.3 VortexBlue Internal and Internal System models 5.3.1 Connecting Power Supply, Pump and Control System The boiler requires both a switched live, from an external programmer or control system AD a permanent live power supply. This permanent live supply is essential for the fan post purge operation. Failure to fit BOTH a switched live and permanent live may cause damage to the burner. OTE Do not interrupt the permanent mains supply to the boiler with any external control, e.g. a timer, programmer, or room thermostat. WARIG The boiler must be wired as shown in Figures 5-4 and 5-5, i.e. with both a permanent live supply AD a separate switched live (from the heating system controls). o permanent live supply to the boiler can result in damage to the burner. This will not be covered by the boiler product guarantee. There is no facility in the Grant VortexBlue Internal and Internal System boilers for the fitting of a plug-in timer or programmer. A 4-core cable (3-core and earth) is required to connect the power supply and heating controls to the boiler. On Internal models a 3-core cable (2-core and earth) is required to connect the circulating pump to the boiler. For control system wiring please refer to Figures 5-4 and 5-5 OTE OTE For total system protection against freezing, particularly during extended periods without electrical power, Grant recommend the use of a combined heating system antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor, used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure that the route and length of the supply and pump cables are such that the boiler control panel can be fully hinged down without needing to disconnect them from the terminal block. The procedure is as follows: 1. Lift off the boiler top front casing panel, if it has not already been removed. 2. Loosen (do not remove) the four screws securing the control Section 4: Installation and Section 5: Electrical Page 13

panel to the side panels, hinge the panel forward and allow it to drop down to gain access to the top of the panel. 3. Remove the two screws securing the terminal block cover and lift off the cover. 4. Remove the screws securing the cable clamp and open clamp. 5. Route the supply cable through the hole in the rear panel (using the grommet supplied) and up to the control panel 6. Pass the 4-core cable through the cable clamp and connect to the boiler control panel terminals as follows: Green/Yellow to mains earth (terminal 1) Blue to mains neutral (terminal 2) Brown to mains live (terminal 3) Black to switched live (terminal 19) On Internal models - pass the 3-core cable from the pump through the cable clamp and connect to the boiler control panel terminals as follows: Green/Yellow to pump earth (terminal 4) Blue to pump neutral (terminal 5) Brown to pump live (terminal 6) 7. Tighten the cable clamp and refit the terminal block cover 8. Re-connect the electrical supply and check operation of heating system controls (programmer, room thermostats, etc.). 9. Refer to Instructions provided with the programmer for operation and setting. 10. Leave the Programmer and Thermostat Instructions with the user after installation for their future reference. 5.3.2 Circulating Pump On the Internal System models, the circulating pump is factory fitted within the boiler enclosure and the pump is wired to the pump terminals on the control panel terminal block. On Internal models the pump should also be connected directly to the control panel terminal block. Refer to Section 5.3.1. Connected this way allows the pump to be isolated using the Boiler O/OFF switch, on the boiler control panel, for servicing or maintenance work. Also, the boiler control automatically provides a short pump 'overrun' (two minutes) after the burner is shut down (when the heat demand is interrupted), e.g. when the room thermostat is satisfied. This pump overrun will not occur if the boiler power supply is interrupted, e.g. if the boiler O/OFF switch is set to off. 5.4 VortexBlue Ex ternal Modules 5.4.1 Connecting Power Supply, Pump and Control System The boiler requires both a switched live, from an external programmer or control system, in addition to a permanent live power supply. OTE Do not interrupt the permanent mains supply to the boiler with any external control, e.g. a timer, programmer, or room thermostat. There is no facility in the Grant VortexBlue External Module for the fitting of a plug-in timer or programmer. A 4-core cable (3-core and earth) is required to connect the power supply and heating controls to the boiler. A 3-core cable (2-core and earth) is required to connect the circulating pump to the boiler. For control system wiring, refer to Figures 5-4 and 5-5. OTE Ensure that the route and length of the supply cable is such that the boiler control panel can be fully hinged down without disconnecting the supply cable from the terminal block. The procedure is as follows: 1. Remove the module front door panel, if it has not already been removed. 2. Remove the four screws securing the front of the control panel and allow it to drop down to gain access to the top of the panel. 3. Remove the screws securing the cable clamp and open clamp. 4. Route the supply and pump cables up to the control panel. 5. Pass the 4-core cable through the cable clamp and connect to the boiler control panel terminals as follows: Green/Yellow to mains earth (terminal 1) Blue to mains neutral (terminal 2) Brown to mains live (terminal 3) Black to switched live (terminal 19) 6. Pass the 3-core cable from the pump through the cable clamp and connect to the boiler control panel terminals as follows: Green/Yellow to pump earth (terminal 4) Blue to pump neutral (terminal 5) Brown to pump live (terminal 6) 7. Tighten the cable clamp and refit the front of the control panel. 8. Re-connect the electrical supply and check operation of heating system controls (programmer, room thermostats, etc.). 9. Refer to Instructions provided with the programmer for operation and setting. 10. Leave the Programmer and Thermostat Instructions with the user after installation for their future reference. 5.4.2 Connection of the Circulating Pump The circulating pump should be connected directly to the control panel terminal block. Refer to Section 4.4.1. Connecting the pump in this way allows it to be isolated using the Boiler On/Off switch, on the boiler control panel, for servicing or maintenance work. Also, when the pump is connected this way, the boiler control automatically provides a short pump 'overrun' (2 minutes) after the burner has shut down (when the heat demand is interrupted), e.g. when the room thermostat is satisfied. This pump overrun will not occur if the boiler power supply is interrupted, e.g. if the boiler O/ OFF switch is set to off. WARIG The boiler must be wired as shown in Figures 5-4 and 5-5, i.e. with both a permanent live supply AD a separate switched live (from the heating system controls). o permanent live supply to the boiler can result in damage to the burner. This will not be covered by the boiler product guarantee. 5.5 VortexBlue Internal Combi and External Combi Boilers 5.5.1 Connecting the Power Supply and Control System For details on the electrical installation requirements for the Combi or External Combi, please refer to Section 8 of the Installation Instructions supplied with this boiler.

Refer to Figure 6-2. 6.2 Ignition Electrode Set ting Before first firing the boiler ensure that the burner ignition electrodes are correctly set. OTE The ignition electrode details given in Figure 6-1 below replaces that given in the Installation Instructions supplied with the boiler. 5 ±0.5 Figure 6-2: Air damper adjustment 6 3 ±0.5 6.4 Air Adjuster Disc 15-21 models only If the 15-21 boiler is to be down-rated to the minimum output of 15kW, an air adjuster disc (Grant UK product code: RBS215) must be fitted as described below. This disc is OT supplied with the boiler but is available free-ofcharge by contacting Grant UK. To fit and position the air adjuster disc, proceed as follows: 1. Ensure the boiler is isolated from the electrical supply. 2. Remove the burner from the boiler. 3. Undo the two screws (1) and remove the air damper assembly from the side of the burner. 4. Remove the screw (2) from the centre of where the air adjuster disc will be fitted. 5. Position the disc such that the disc setting B (corresponding to 15kW output setting refer to Section 3.3) is located against the cast boss on the fan housing. 6. Replace the screw in the centre of the air adjuster disc and tighten. 7. Re-fit the air damper assembly to the side of the burner and re-assemble in reverse order.

7 Servicing 7.1 General To service the boiler and burner follow the procedure given in the Section 11 of the Vortex boiler (or Vortex Combi boiler) Installation Instructions supplied with the boiler. Section 7: Servicing Page 23

8 Burner 8.1 General WARIG The burner and flange are matched. If the burner is changed, the correct flange for the replacement burner MUST be fitted. Refer to Section 10 (spare parts). All Grant VortexBlue boilers are fitted with a Riello RDB BLU blue flame burner. This has been designed to operate with reduced Ox emissions that meet the forthcoming European Ecodesign emissions regulations. From September 2018 the maximum permissible Ox level for oil fired boilers is 120mg/kWh. All Grant VortexBlue boilers, fitted with the Riello RDB BLU burner, will operate well below this minimum level and thus fully comply with these emissions regulations when they come into effect. 8.2 Burner Features The Riello RDB BLU blue flame burner fitted to the Grant VortexBlue boilers is very similar to the Riello RDB 'yellow flame' burners, such as those fitted to the Vortex range of oil fired boilers. The main differences with the blue flame burner are as follows: An Ultra Violet (UV) sensor is used the blue flame cannot be detected by the usual photocell. A digital control box is used the UV cell cannot be used with the usual 'analogue' control box. A clear reset button (on the control box) with burner status and fault identification by different coloured indicator lights. A longer combustion head to allow the necessary recirculation of the combustion gases. A post purge following flame shut off requiring a permanent live to the burner in addition to the usual switched live. 3 9 6 5 10 4 1 Figure 8-1: Burner components Table 8-2: Burner components key Key Description 1 Oil pump 2 Digital control box 3 Reset push-button with lockout lamp 4 Flange with insulating gasket 5 Air damper adjustment screw 6 Snorkel (balanced flue) 7 Pump pressure adjustment screw 8 Pressure gauge port 9 UV sensor 10 Combustion head 2 7 8 Page 24 Section 8: Burner

8.3 Digital Control Box The digital control box fitted to this burner has several different features compared to the more commonly used 'analogue' control box. 8.3.2 Operating Status Indication From start up the operating status of the burner is displayed via the reset push-button indicator LED on the control box. Refer to Table 8-3. 8.3.1 Reset Push-button This is a clear (transparent) button that will indicate the operating status of the burner and also burner faults depending on the colour of the indicator LED visible through the reset button. If there is no heat demand to fire the burner, the indicator LED will be off, i.e. no colour visible though the reset push button. Refer to Figure 8-1 for the location of the control box and reset pushbutton. If the reset push-button LED is indicating a lockout (refer to Section 8.3.3), press the reset button to attempt to re-start the burner. If the burner then operates correctly the lockout may have been caused by a temporary fault that has now cleared. If the lockout persists the cause of the fault should be diagnosed and rectified. OTE To operate the reset push-button it must be pressed in and briefly held (for at least one second) before releasing. OTE The burner can only be reset 5 times consecutively, after which the mains power supply has to be switched off and then back on for a further 5 reset attempts to be available. 8.3.3 Burner Fault Indication Whenever a burner lockout occurs the cause is displayed via the reset push-button indicator LED on the control box. Refer to Table 8-4. 8.3.4 Last Lockout Display The control box memorises the details of the last lockout that occurred and this information can be recalled and displayed by the reset push-button indicator LED. To operate this function: Press and hold the reset push-button for 25 seconds During this time the reset push button indicator LED will first flash RED (twice) and then flash GREE (once) and then GREE again (three times) As soon as it flashes GREE four times release the reset pushbutton immediately The reset push-button indicator LED will then display the last lockout indication, e.g. constant red. Refer to the Fault Diagnostics table (Table 9-2) in Section 9 of these Supplementary Instructions to identify the fault from the indicator LED sequence. The lockout fault will only be displayed for a period of 10 seconds. If required, this period can be extended by re-pressing the reset pushbutton during the display of the lockout. The lockout display will then be extended by a further 10 seconds.

8.3.5 Removal of Control Box WARIG Before removing the control box from the burner, or opening the control box cover, isolate the electrical supply to the boiler. To remove the control box proceed as follows (referring to Figure 8-5): Unscrew and remove screw (1) and open control box cover (2). Disconnect all plugs from the control box terminals. Unscrew the retaining finger nut and remove the solenoid coil (3) from the oil pump. Unscrew and remove the two screws (4) and remove the control box from the burner. Disconnect the two ignition leads from the ignition connections on rear of control box. Refit the control box to the burner using the reverse of the above procedure. 8.4 Burner Operation 8.4.1 Burner Operating Times Table 8-6: Burner operating times Symbol Description Value (seconds) t0 Standby: the burner is waiting for a heat request - t1 t2 t2l Standby time for an input signal: reaction time, control box remains in waiting status for t1 Initialisation standby time: check time following the main power start-up Checks extraneous light during t2: waiting mode for t2l, then lockout: the motor does not start t3 Pre-purge time: the fan motor is working 15 t3l Checks extraneous light during pre-purging: control box goes into lockout at the end of t3l t3i Spark pre-ignition time 2 ts Safety time 5 t4i Total spark ignition time 10 1 3.5 25 25 2 1 t4l Reaction time to achieve safety shut-down due to flame failure t5i Spark post-ignition time 3 1 4 tr Re-cycles: Max. no. 3 repetitions of complete start-up sequence if there is a flame failure during operation; the final action at the last attempt following flame failure is a lock-out 3 re-cycles tpp Post-purge time: additional purge time at the end of a heat request. Can be interrupted by a new heat request 60 3 4 Figure 8-5: Removal of control box 8.4.2 Presence of Extraneous light or Flame On burner start up, when the fan starts to pre-purge the burner/ boiler, if an extraneous light or flame is detected in the combustion chamber by the UV sensor the burner fan continues to run until either: a) The extraneous light or flame disappears, or b) 25 seconds elapses, a burner lockout occurs and the fault indicator LED flashes Green/Red If an extraneous light or flame is detected after the fan has started (i.e. at some time during the pre-purge period) the pre-purge time of 15 seconds is reset, and the 25 second time for checking for the presence of extraneous light or flame starts and the fan continues to run. As above, if the extraneous light or flame does not disappear after 25 seconds a burner lockout occurs. This function is cumulative and can operate a maximum of two times during the burner pre-purge period. If the extraneous light or flame disappears after 24 seconds (or less) the pre-purge period and the 25 second countdown for checking for extraneous light or flame re-starts. If the extraneous light or flame re-appears the process is repeated. If the extraneous light or flame appears for a third time, the burner goes into lockout. If during a burner recycle operation due to Flame failure (refer to Section 8.4.4 Burner Recycle Function) an extraneous light or flame is detected, the 25 second countdown starts for checking for extraneous light or flame. The presence of extraneous light or flame can also be detected when the burner is in: c) The standby condition waiting for a heating demand to start the burner. d) The Initialisation period (t2) after the heating demand but before the burner fan starts.

8.4.3 Spark Ignition Duration The 'pre-ignition' spark time starts 2 seconds before the oil valve opens (the start of the 5 second 'safety time' period). The 'post-ignition' spark time ends 3 seconds after the end of the safety time period, i.e. 8 seconds after the oil valve opens. The ignition spark is present throughout the 'safety time' period (5 seconds) making a total spark ignition period of 10 seconds. OTE In the case of continuous ignition sequence recycling after flame failure, or heat demands close to one another, the maximum number of cycle repetitions of the ignition transformer is one attempt every minute. 8.4.4 Burner Recycle Function In event of flame failure during burner operation the control box will allow the burner to recycle and repeat the start-up sequence for the burner to attempt to re-fire. This can occur up to a total of three attempts to re-fire the burner. If it fails a fourth time in operation it will cause a burner lockout and the reset push-button indicator LED will be RED. OTE 8.4.6 Post Purge Function This function allows air flow through the burner for a pre-set time after the burner flame is switched off (on the loss of demand for the burner to fire). The loss of demand from either the heating system controls, or boiler temperature control, interrupts the switched live to the burner resulting in the fuel supply being shut off and the flame stopped. The permanent supply to the burner maintains the fan operation for a short period to provide the post purging of the burner and boiler prior to the burner re-firing again. The post-purge function does not operate: e) After a burner lockout has occurred f) If the heat demand is interrupted during the pre-purge period However, the post-purge function will operate if the heat demand is interrupted: g) During the safety time period (i.e. immediately after burner ignition) h) During normal operation of the burner If the UV cell detects any extraneous light or flame during the prepurge period the burner will go to 'lockout' after 25 seconds. If there is a new heat demand during the post-purge period, the post-purge function is halted (the fan stops) and a new burner operating cycle starts. After 8½ minutes of continuous burner operation the control box regains one attempt to re-fire (should it be required). If the power supply to the boiler is disconnected and then reconnected, when the next heat demand is applied to the burner all three possible attempts to re-fire are restored. 8.4.5 Burner Lockout In the event of a burner lockout: If the reset button is pressed four times in succession, without the burner being restarted, pressing the reset a fifth time will 'lock' the reset button. The reset button will flash red and will not respond to being pressed, i.e. it will no longer operate to attempt to restart the burner. This is intended to stop the burner reset from being repeatedly pressed and does not necessarily indicate a fault with the control box. If this condition occurs, switch the boiler O/OFF switch (located on the boiler control panel) to OFF. Wait for 5 seconds and then switch it back to O. The burner reset button should now function as expected. Before continuing to press the reset button, the cause of the original burner lockout, e.g. lack of fuel, no ignition, etc. must be identified and rectified. Section 8: Burner Page 27
