no, that is on the control panel, the one you are looking for on on the underside of the boiler, quite central

would the thumb wheel have 1 to 9 written on it?

if you follow the mains pipe up into the boiler there should be an isolating valve on the underside of the boiler, sometimes it is a balafix type with a screwdriver slot , other times it can be a white/grey thumbwheel, make sure this is open.

you are right that has no effect on getting no water out of taps. I have increased the pressure to 1.5, but still no water out of hot taps

the pressure guage being low is a different problem. below your boiler you would normally find a silver braided hose between 2 of the pipes, on one end of the will be a small tap, opening this will increase the boiler pressure, recharge this to between 1-1.5 bar.
if this does not work then I would look at a stop cock being closed somewhere.
Knowing the model of the boiler would help though.
