What causes this fault?
This code appears when the boiler's control system has been manually triggered to clear custom adjustments and return to its original manufacturer configuration. It is usually the result of an engineer or homeowner navigating the menu to restore default performance levels or troubleshooting a software glitch. While the code is active, the boiler is simply recalibrating its internal logic to ensure it operates exactly as intended from the factory.
