Aqualisa pump runs but wont pump water until head lowered?

I have an aqualisa 1997-2003 with boost , the pump runs but wont pump water unless the showhead is lowered but continues to pump if the showhead is returned to its bracket.

is there a fault with a pressure switch ?

Have got the answer from Aqualisa:
This is due to blocked air.
1) with the pump off, unscrew the shower head and place hose in bath.
2) position temp control to cold.
3) turn on pump and wait for any burbling and blowing of air to be flused through.
4) Slowly increase the temperature at each small step wait for burbling air to disipate.
5) finally turn temp to max and allow water to flow.
6) reduce temp to normal and switch pump off.
7) replace shower head.
8) test by switching pump on , water should pump , if it doesnt.
9) reduce the temperature and increase the flow.
10) do this until a steady flow results at all temperatures
