How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Do not bypass safety devices. They protect against overheating and flue gas hazards.
- Check lockout indicators: Some De Dietrich models show symbols for open safety devices. Refer to the manual.
- External interlocks: If an external safety device (e.g., low-water cut-off) is fitted, ensure it has not tripped.
- Technician tasks: A heating engineer should test continuity through the safety chain, reset or replace the overheat thermostat or flue safety device, and repair wiring faults.
