▼ Recovering the refrigerant in the outdoor unit Before performing any maintenance, make sure that all power supplies have been cut off . Stored energy: after cutting off the power supplies, wait for 1 minute before accessing the internal parts of the equipment. Perform the following procedures to collect the refrigerant.
Hydraulic connections ► Connecting the hydraulic unit to the heating circuit ▼ Flushing the installation Before connecting the hydraulic unit to the installation, rinse out the heating system correctly to eliminate any particles that may aff ect the appliance's correct operation.
▼ Volume of the heating system You must maintain the minimum installation water volume. Install a buff er tank on the return from the heating circuit in case the volume is lower than this value. Where the system is fi tted with one or more thermostatic valves, you must ensure that this minimum water volume is able to circulate.
