Starting up the heat pump

▶
Switch on the power supply.
◁
The basic display appears on the display.
Note
In the case of a restart following a loss of
voltage or a shutdown of the power supply,
the current date and time are automatically
reset by the DCF receiver or, if there is no
DCF reception, you must reset these values
yourself.

Running the installation assistants

The installation assistant is launched when the heat pump is
switched on for the first time.
Menu → Installer level Configuration
▶
Press to confirm that you wish to start the installation
assistant.
◁
All heating, cooling and hot water requests are
blocked whilst the installation assistant is active.
Note
You cannot exit the installation assistant until
the environment circuit type has been set.
▶
To access the next point, confirm by pressing

9.3.2 Setting the environment circuit type
The following environment circuit types can be set:
–
Ground/brine
–
Air/brine
–
Groundwater/brine
9.3.3 Setting the cooling technology
You must set the installed cooling technology.
When using ground/brine as the heat source, active cooling
is limited to a brine output temperature of 40 °C in order to
protect the source/probe borehole. If this temperature is ex-

until the display shows the
ceeded (> 40 °C), active cooling mode is switched off. This
limit can only be changed by Vaillant Customer service.
9.3.4 Enabling auxiliary electric heating
On the system controller, you can select whether the auxili-
ary electric heating is to be used for heating mode, hot water
handling mode or both modes. Set the maximum output for
the auxiliary electric heater at the heat pump's operator con-
trol panel here.
▶
Activate the internal auxiliary electric heating with one of
the following output levels.
▶
Make sure that the maximum output of the auxiliary elec-
tric heating does not exceed the power of the fuse pro-
tection installed in the domestic electrical system (see
technical data for measuring currents).
Note
Otherwise the domestic circuit breaker may be
triggered later if the output of the heat source
is insufficient and the auxiliary electric heating
(which has a higher output) is switched off.
Output levels for the 230 V auxiliary electric heating (when
connecting one phase; see Appendix A):
–
External
–
2.0 kW
–
3.5 kW
–
5.5 kW
Output levels for the 230 V auxiliary electric heating (when
connecting three separate phases; see Appendix B):
–
7 kW
–
9 kW
9.3.5 Purging the building circuit
▶
Start the check programme P.05 in order to purge the
building circuit. (→ Page 33)
9.3.6 Purging the environment circuit
▶
Start the check programme P.06 in order to purge the
environment circuit. (→ Page 33)
Conditions: Air/brine heat source
–
Programme duration of approx. 1 hour. In addi-
tion to purging, the programme includes a self-
test of the air/brine collector which checks the fol-
lowing points: Phase errors, communication with
outdoor unit, brine pressure, safety cut-out of the
defroster heater, brine pump operation, brine cir-
cuit flow rate, fan, sensor faults, temperature bal-
ancing, calibration of the heat pump brine sensor,
calibration of the air/brine collector brine sensor,
inversion of brine lines, brine circuit purging func-
tion
