Urgency

Low

Quick answer

Beretta A06 is a fault in the domestic hot water NTC sensor. The boiler keeps working, but hot water stays near 50 °C without proper control. No reset is needed: tell the technical service.

Safety first

Stop and check this first

  • With A06 hot water can come out around 50 °C without control: run cold water first and watch children and older people to avoid scalds.
  • If you smell gas: Beretta says not to touch electrical switches, the phone or anything that sparks, to ventilate by opening doors and windows and to close the main gas tap. Then leave the home and call your gas distributor's emergency number from the street.

Safe checks you can perform

  • Hot water temperature
  • Heating working
  • Sensor check by the technician

Leave these tasks to a qualified professional

What a technician must be able to justify

Technician visit

These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.

These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.

  1. Hot water NTC sensor reading

    What they doThe technician measures the sensor with a multimeter and compares the value with the real water temperature using the maker's table.

    They must show youthe measured value against the expected one.

    In writingthe reading and any part replaced.

  2. Connector and wiring check

    What they doThe technician checks the sensor connector and the cable to the board.

    They must show youthe connector checked.

    In writingthe repair done.

Before accepting a part or repair

Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.

Follow these steps

Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.

  1. Hot water temperature

    No special tools

    Who:
    you.
    How:
    carefully open a hot tap and see whether water comes out hot but does not change when you move the hot water knob.
    Result that matters:
    whether water comes out warm or hot at a fixed level.
    If it is hot and ignores the knob:
    it matches what Beretta describes for A06.
    If no hot water comes at all:
    tell the technician; something else may be wrong.
    Evidence to keep:
    a note of what you see and the time.

  2. Heating working

    No special tools

    Who:
    you.
    How:
    check whether the radiators heat normally.
    Result that matters:
    whether heating works.
    If it heats:
    that is expected with A06; you can wait for the technician without resetting.
    If heating does not work either:
    note any code shown and tell the technician.
    Evidence to keep:
    a note of what works and what does not.

  3. Sensor check by the technician

    Tools required

    Who:
    technician from the technical service.
    How:
    checks the hot water NTC sensor, its connector and the cable to the board.
    Result that matters:
    whether the sensor or its connection fails.
    If the sensor does not respond:
    it is replaced.
    If it responds:
    connector and wiring are checked.
    Evidence to keep:
    a report with the reading and any part replaced.

    Beretta reserves servicing and maintenance for qualified staff of its technical service: opening the boiler or touching sensors, fan or gas parts is not the user's job.

What it means

In the Ciao Green C.S.I. table, A06 is the hot water NTC sensor fault, a signal type alarm. Beretta explains the boiler works normally but does not manage hot water temperature stability, which stays set near 50 °C, and asks for the technical service. The NTC sensor measures hot water temperature; the code does not separate a faulty sensor from a fault in its connector or wiring.

Warnings and stop conditions

  • Mediumeditorial warning

    With A06 hot water can come out around 50 °C without control: run cold water first and watch children and older people to avoid scalds.

Symptoms and causes

Probable causes · in order

  • Hot water NTC sensor faultyPossible

    If the technician measures the sensor and it does not respond to temperature as it should, the sensor is the cause.

  • Sensor connector or wiringPossible

    If the sensor is fine but the board cannot read it, the fault is in the connector or cable.
