05 Low
Your boiler is simply protecting itself from freezing by circulating water to keep the system temperature at a safe level.
Monitor it
This is a minor fault. Keep an eye on it and mention it at your next annual boiler service. Reset the boiler and see if it clears.
Technical description: Pump anti-freeze: When the boiler senses a temperature of 8°C or lower, the pump will run for 2 minutes, the boiler will then check if the flow temperature is higher than 8°C.
