1.1 Important information

ATTENTION!
The heat pump is not secured to the wooden pallet.
ATTENTION!
The heat pump must not be tilted more than 45° (in any direction).
ATTENTION!
Do not use the holes in the panel assemblies for lifting the device!
ATTENTION!
Flush the heating system prior to connecting the heat pump.
ATTENTION!
In the case of large-volume heating circuits, use an additional expansion
vessel to supplement the installed expansion vessel.
ATTENTION!
Insert a dirt trap in the heat source inlet of the heat pump to protect the
evaporator against the ingress of impurities.
ATTENTION!
The brine solution must contain at least 25 % of an antifreeze agent on a
mono-ethylene glycol or propylene glycol basis and must be mixed prior
to filling.
ATTENTION!
When there is danger of frost, the circulating pump will also start
immediately in standby mode after connecting the power supply.
ATTENTION!
To prevent the accumulation of deposits (e.g. rust) we recommend using
a suitable corrosion protection system.
ATTENTION!
Any work on the heat pump may only be performed by authorised and
qualified after-sales service technicians.
ATTENTION!
Disconnect all electrical circuits from the power source prior to opening
the device.

1.2 Intended Use

This device is only intended for use as specified by the manufac-
turer. Any other use beyond that intended by the manufacturer is
prohibited. This includes the user's abiding by the manufacturer's
product brochures. Please refrain from tampering with or altering
the device.
1.3 Legal Regulations and
Directives
This heat pump conforms to all relevant DIN/VDE regulations
and EU directives. Refer to the EC Declaration of Conformity in
the appendix for details.
The heat pump must be connected to the power supply in com-
pliance with all relevant VDE, EN and IEC standards. Any further
connection requirements stipulated by local utility companies
must also be observed.
The heat pump is to be connected to the heat source system and
the heating or cooling system in accordance with all applicable
regulations.
Persons, especially children, who are not capable of operating
the device safely due to their physical, sensory or mental abilities
or their inexperience or lack of knowledge, must not operate this
device without supervision or instruction by the person in charge.
Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the device.
1.4 Energy-Efficient Use of the
Heat Pump
By operating this heat pump you are helping to protect our envi-
ronment. The heating or cooling system and the heat source
must be properly designed and dimensioned to ensure efficient
operation. It is particularly important to keep water flow tempera-
tures as low as possible in heating operation. All connected en-
ergy consumers should therefore be suitable for low flow temper-
atures. Raising the heating water temperature by 1 K
corresponds to an increase in energy consumption of approx.
2.5 %. Low-temperature heating systems with flow temperatures
between 30 °C and 50 °C are optimally suited for energy-efficient
operation.
