Vaillant Ecotec Plus - pressure problem?

Hi,

I've got a Vaillant ecotec plus 831, and pressure's low. Not F22 low yet but getting there. I know I just need to turn a flathead screwdriver for a few seconds to increase the pressure in the system. But I've taken the bottom of the cupboard off, and there's at least 5 things I could turn...

I've put a picture here to help:

Can anyone tell me which one(s) I need to switch to increase the pressure?

Many thanks,
Mark

Hi I have a Vailant 630 system boiler and the pressure goes up to maximum 3.3 bar and im force to take water out from the radiator to decrease the pressure, I just changed the expansion vessel and pumped it before conecting it to 12 psi as per instruction I have also changed the pressure sensor, as I said I set the pressure initially at 1.3 bar after few hours it reaches 1.9 and the following day is at maximum 3.3 bar. Can someone please advise what to do, many thanks
