Your boiler is in normal standby mode and is working correctly while waiting for a request to provide heating or hot water.
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: At stand-by with no faults
What causes this fault?

It indicates that the internal sensors detect no current demand for heat from your thermostat or hot water taps. The internal control board is simply monitoring the system and is ready to fire up as soon as it is needed.
