Your boiler's internal clock has lost track of the time or date, so timed heating and hot water schedules may not run correctly, but the boiler itself is usually still safe to use.

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.
