What causes this fault?

This code appears when the boiler needs to refill its internal reservoir that collects waste water, which typically happens after the power has been turned off or the system has been reset. To ensure no exhaust gases escape through the drainage system, the boiler stays at a very low power level for fifteen minutes to safely generate enough condensation to fill the trap. Once this automatic safety cycle finishes, the boiler will return to its normal heating settings without any intervention needed.
