WARNINGS!
The appliance may be used by children older than 8 years old, elderly
persons and persons with physical, sensory or mental disabilities or lacking
experience and knowledge, if they are under supervision or taught about safe
use of the appliance and if they are aware of the potential dangers.
Children should not play with the appliance.
Children should not clean or maintain the appliance without supervision.
Always transport the heat pump in an upright position; exceptionally, it
may be tilted by 35° in all directions. Be careful not to damage the housing or
the vital component parts of the heat pump during transport.
The heat pump is not intended for industrial use and use in premises
where corrosive and explosive substances are present.
The connection of the heat pump to the mains should be performed in
accordance with standards for electrical appliances. An all-poles disconnect
switch should be installed between the heat pump and the mains in accordance
with the national installation standards.
The heat pump should not be in operation without water in the hot water
tank, because of danger of destruction of the compressor!
The installation should be performed in accordance with the valid
regulations and the instructions of the manufacturer. It should be performed by
a professionally trained installation expert.
It is necessary to install a safety valve with a rated pressure to the inlet
pipe of the heat pump, to prevent the pressure in the boiler from rising for more
than 0.1 MPa (1 bar).
Water may drip from the outlet opening of the safety valve, so the outlet
opening should be set to atmospheric pressure.
The outlet of the safety valve should be installed facing downwards and in
a non-freezing area.
To ensure proper functioning of the safety valve, the user should perform
regular controls to remove limescale and make sure the safety valve is not
blocked.
Do not install a stop valve between the heat pump and the safety valve,
because it will impair the functioning of the safety valve!
Before the beginning of the operation two 90° elbows must be installed to
the top of the appliance (ø125 mm), each facing in the opposite direction. The
premises must be properly ventilated.
The elements in the electronic control unit are live even after pressing the
off field (9) on the heat pump.
If you disconnect the heat pump from the power supply, please drain any
water from the pump to prevent freezing.
Water can be drained from the pump through the boiler inlet pipe. For this
purpose it is advisable to install a special element or outlet valve between the
inlet pipe and safety valve.
Please do not try to fix any defects of the heat pump on your own. Call the
nearest authorised service provider.
