• User instructions (operational instructions for home-owners) The instructions are also available for download at the following address: www.documentation.heatpump.danfoss.com Symbols in documents The instructions contain different warning symbols, which, together with text, indicate to the user that there are risks involved with actions to be taken.
Important information General safety precautions Caution! This product is not intended for persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or psychological capacity, or who do not have knowledge or experience, unless supervised or they have received instructions on how the apparatus functions from a safety qualified person. Caution! The heat pump must be located on a stable base.
Caution! • Before installation, decide a safe and reliable way of conveying the unit. • To prevent injury, a mixing valve must be installed on the outlet if the hot water temperature may rise over 65°C, for example, when using solar energy solutions. •...

Temperature and pressure valve The specification of the valve connecting (internal) thread is DN20 (RC3/4”). After installation, it must be confirmed that the drainpipe outlet is exposed in the air. If a flexible drainpipe is jointed to the pressure relief orifice of this valve, it must be confirmed that the flexible drainpipe is directed downwards vertically and exposed in the air.

Error has been set. Can be set alone, timer starts before codes are displayed here during malfunction or or after 24:00 depending on the value set by user.
Operating instructions 11.1 Start up When you power up the unit (by turning on the power supply), initially a buzzer sound will be heard and all indica- tors appear on the display for 3 seconds. If there is no operation from the user for 1 minute, all indicators will go out automatically except the WATER FILL indicator (which will be flashing as a reminder) and the tank’s tempera- ture indicator.

11.1.4 Setting temperature The temperature displayed is the water temperature in the upper part of the tank. The default setting is 55°C and the range is 38-60°C. Press the UP or DOWN key to increase or decrease the water temperature. When the temperature setting is higher than 50°C, the HIGH TEMP indicator will be displayed as a warning.

Press the UP or DOWN key to adjust the minute setting. Press the TIME ON key again, the minute digit stops flashing and the hour digit starts. TIME Press the UP or DOWN key to adjust the hour setting. Press the TIME ON key again to confirm, or wait 10 seconds. TIME Press the TIME OFF key, the minute digit on the display starts flashing slowly.
Press the TIME OFF key again, the minute digit stops flashing and the hour digit starts. TIME Press the “UP” and “DOWN” key to adjust the hour setting. If the operation is inactive for about 10 seconds, the flashing stops and the TIME ON and TIME OFF setting is completed.
When running the heat pump in ECONOMY mode and the ambient temperature does not meet the operational conditions (allowed operating range) of the unit, that is, the temperature is less than -7°C or more than +43°C, the unit stops and an LA code will be displayed. Warning code when the current mode is in conflict with the operational conditions for this mode.
Displaying the error code and water temperature setting alternatively. TEMP-SET If the system is in ECONOMY mode and a malfunction occurs, the system can still be operational by switching to E- HEATER mode, even though it could not reach the expected efficiency. Contact your supplier for help. DANGER! The heat pump cover must only be opened by authorised service technicians.
