DANGER: RISK OF BURNING
The plastic wall of the storage tank on the indoor unit can
melt under the effects of external heat (>80 °C) and, in the
extreme case, can catch fire.
▪ Only install the indoor unit at a minimum clearance of
1m from other heat sources (>80°C) (e.g. electrical
heater, oil heater, chimney) and combustible material.
CAUTION
If the indoor unit is not installed at a sufficient dis-
tance below the flat solar panels (the top edge of the stor-
age tank is higher than the bottom edge of the solar pan-
els), the unpressurised solar system in the outdoor area
will not be able to drain completely.
▪ When a solar connection is used, install the indoor unit
low enough under the flat solar panels (observe the min-
imum gradient of the solar connection lines).
Recommended minimum distances:
To the wall: (back) ≥100mm, (sides) ≥500mm
To the ceiling: ≥1200mm, at least 480mm.
