How to turn on the Gorenje OTG30SLB6 boiler?

To turn on the boiler, first check that the gas and electricity supplies are connected. Press the On/Off button on the control panel. The screen will display the current temperature. If an error code appears, consult the manual.

What to do if the boiler displays error code E1?

The E1 code usually indicates an ignition problem. Check that the gas valve is open and that the water pressure is sufficient (between 1 and 2 bar). If the problem persists, contact a certified technician.

How to adjust the heating water temperature?

Use the + and - buttons on the control panel to adjust the heating flow temperature (range: 30 °C to 80 °C). The domestic hot water temperature is set separately with the dedicated knob.

How to add water to the heating circuit (pressure)?

Locate the filling valve under the boiler. Open it slowly until the pressure gauge shows 1.5 bar. Close the valve carefully after operation. Perform this operation with the boiler cold.

The boiler does not produce hot water, what to do?

Check that the boiler is in Summer mode (hot water only) or Winter mode (heating + hot water). Ensure that the water flow is sufficient and that the mixing valve is open. If the problem persists, descaling may be necessary.

What regular maintenance is required?

Annual maintenance by a qualified professional is mandatory. It includes cleaning the burner and heat exchanger, checking gas pressure, and verifying safety devices. This ensures proper operation and safety.

How to bleed the radiators?

Use a bleed key to open the bleed screw on the radiator. Place a container under the bleed. Wait until air escapes and water flows, then close. Then check the boiler pressure.

What does the flashing red light mean?

A flashing red light indicates a malfunction. Check the error code on the screen and refer to the error code table in the manual. Common causes include low pressure or an ignition fault.

Can I use the boiler without natural gas?

No, this model operates exclusively on natural gas (G20). Use with another type of gas requires conversion by a certified installer, including replacement of injectors and flow adjustment.

How to reset the boiler after a breakdown?

Press the Reset button (often combined with the On/Off button) for 3 seconds. If the boiler does not restart after several attempts, contact a professional.

Dimensions of the water heater for installation and connection [mm]

CONNECTION TO THE WATER SUPPLY

The water heater connections for the in-flowing and out-flowing water are colour-coded.

The connection for the supply of cold water is coloured blue, while the hot water outlet is coloured red.

The water heater may be connected to the water supply in two ways. The closed-circuit pressure system enables several points of use, while the open-circuit gravity system enables a single point of use only. The mixer taps must also be purchased in accordance with the selected installation mode.

The open-circuit gravity system requires the installation of a non-return valve in order to prevent the water from draining out of the tank in the event of the water supply running dry or being shut down. This installation mode requires the use of an instantaneous mixer tap. As the heating of water expands its volume, this causes the tap to drip. The dripping cannot be stopped by tightening it further; on the contrary, the tightening can only damage the tap.

The closed-circuit pressure system requires the use of pressure mixer taps. For safety reasons the supply pipe must be fitted with a return safety valve or alternatively, a valve of the safety class that prevents the pressure in the tank from exceeding the nominal pressure by more than 0.1 MPa.

The heating of water in the heater causes the pressure in the tank to increase to the level set by the safety valve. As the water cannot return to the water supply system, this can result in the dripping from the outlet of the safety valve. The drip can be piped to the drain by installing a catching unit just below the safety valve. The drain installed below the safety valve outlet must be piped down vertically and located in the environment that is free from the onset of freezing conditions.

In case the existing plumbing does not enable you to pipe the dripping water from the return safety valve into the drain, you can avoid the dripping by installing a 3-litre expansion tank on the inlet water pipe of the boiler.

You should ensure that the return safety valve is functioning properly by checking it on a regular basis i.e. every 14 days. To check the valve, you should open the outlet of the return safety valve by turning the handle or unscrewing the nut of the valve (depending on the type of the valve). The valve is operating properly if the water comes out of the nozzle when the outlet is open.

5- Closing valve

T - Hot water

Between the water heater and return safety valve no closing valve may be built-in because with it the function of return safety valve would be impeded.

The water heater may be connected to the water network in the house without reduction valve if the pressure in the network is lower than 0.5 MPa (5 bar). If the pressure exceeds 0.5 MPa (5 bar), a reduction valve must be installed. Prior to the electric connection the water heater must obligatorily be filled with water. By first filling the tap for the hot water upon the mixing tap must be opened. When the heater is filled with water, the water starts to run through the outlet pipe of the mixing tap.

POWER CONNECTION

The power lead must be fitted to the water heater prior to being connected to the power supply. In order to do this you should first unscrew the protective cover off the water heater. The water heater must be connected to the power supply in accordance with the requirements set out in the relevant standards applying to electrical installations. For safety reasons a switch should be installed on the lead connecting the heater to the power grid, i.e. a switch disconnecting both power supply poles with the minimum of 3 mm distance between the open contacts.

WARNING: The appliance must be disconnected from the power supply prior to opening and reaching inside the water heater.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

After the connection to water and electric network the heater is ready for use. By turning the knob of thermostat at the front side of the protecting cover, the wished temperature of water between 25° C and 75° C is chosen. We recommend the adjustment of the knob to the position “E”. Such an adjustment is the most economic; with it the temperature of water shall be about 55° C, the excretion of lime-stone and thermal loss shall be smaller as by adjustment to higher temperature.

The operation of electric immersion heaters is shown by pilot light. On the perimeter of the water heater there is a built-in thermometer which is showing the temperature of water.

When the heater shall not be used during a longer time, its contents must be protected against freezing so that the power supply (electricity) shall not be switched off, but the thermostat knob shall be adjusted to the position “*”. With this adjustment the heater shall maintain the water temperature by about 10° C. But when the heater is switched-off from the electric network, at risk for freezing, the water must be emptied from it.

Before draining water heater should be disconnected from main supply. Than hot water valves on taps should be opened. Water heater is to be drained through inlet connection.

For this purpose it is recommendable to put special fitting or a drain valve between inlet connection of water heater and safety valve. If this is not the case water can be drained directly through safety valve by putting the lever or screw cap of safety valve to “Test” position. After draining through inlet pipe there is small quantity of residual water which is to be drained by taking off of heating flange.”

The outside of the water heater is cleaned by a mild solution of detergent. The solvents or rough cleaning means should not be used.

By regular service check of impeccable operation must be assured and a long lifetime of the water heater. The first check must be performed by an authorised service workshop after about two years after the first connection. At check, the use of anti-corrosion protecting anode is checked and if necessary lime stone must be cleaned which with regard to the quality, quantity and temperature of the water used is gathered in the inside of the water heater. Service workshop shall after check recommend also the date of next check of the water heater with regard to the established results.

Never try to repair any possible faults of the water heater by yourself, but inform about it the nearest authorised service workshop.
