Vaillant VCW GB 242e pressure low?

Thanks plumbob1, sorry for the delay getting back.
There was indeed a valve as you described, it was hidden below some shelving. Nicely refilled now. Cheers! :)

Follow the cold water inlet pipe at the bottom of the boiler towards the front of the boiler. about two inches (5cm) from the front and about 6" (15cm) from the right hand side you will see a brass fitting with a flat screwdriver slot, gently open this and watch the guage (keep your screwdriver in the slot so that you can turn it off, otherwise you might fill too far and open the safety valve)

er... thanks Brian. That was the first thing I did, but they don't offer downloads for old boilers.
So I came here hoping for a quicker, but useful answer ;)
