To go from 1 Bar to 0 Bar on a smallish system, you must have lost AT LEAST 2 litres of water to somewhere.
Check the boiler Emergency Discharge pipe (outside, somewhere on the wall below the flue terminal). If it's wet or dripping, likely that's where it went. Otherwise, carry on looking. Wet rad valves, marks on ceilings, damp smells in rooms with pipes below floors, etc.

If the ED is leaking you'll need to replace (or at least get cleaned up) the boiler Pressure Relief Valve. This is a calibrated safety device. If you don't know what you're doing, Get Someone In.
