 Release the snap-in tab found in the opening on the un-
derside of the wall mounted enclosure. Press the snap-in
tab with a screwdriver.
 Route a four-core data cable from the heat pump manag-
er to the mounting position of the appliance.
The data cable must protrude 20 to 30cm out of the wall to
allow installation.
10.2.1 Installation with a ush box
For securing to a wall we recommend using a ush box that
can accommodate the data cable.
 Make sure that the screws supporting the ush box are
arranged either vertically or horizontally opposite one
another.
10.2.2 Installation without a ush box
 To secure the wall mounted enclosure, drill four holes
(Ø5mm).
 When routing the data cable, be careful not to damage it
when drilling the xing holes.
In the area around the cable entry (behind the wall mounted
enclosure), a reservoir needs to be made to hold 20 to 30cm
of data cable.
