- The appliance may be used by children aged8
and older and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or a lack of ex-
perience and know-how, provided that they
are supervised or they have been instructed
on how to use the appliance safely and have
understood the potential risks. Children must
never play with the appliance. Children must
never clean the appliance or perform user
maintenance unless they are supervised.
- The connection to the power supply must
be in the form of a permanent connection.
Ensure the appliance can be separated from
the power supply by an isolator that discon-
nects all poles with at least 3mm contact
separation.
- Maintain the minimum clearances to ensure
trouble-free operation of the appliance and
facilitate maintenance work.
- Maintenance work, such as checking the elec-
trical safety, must only be carried out by a
qualified contractor.
- We recommend regular inspection (to es-
tablish the current condition of the system),
and maintenance by a qualified contractor if
required (to return the system to its original
condition).
- Following disconnection from the power sup-
ply, parts of the appliance may remain ener-
gised for 2minutes until the inverter capaci-
tors have discharged.
- Never interrupt the power supply, even out-
side the heating season. The system's active
frost protection is not guaranteed if the power
supply is interrupted.
- If the heat pump is completely switched off
and there is a risk of frost, drain the system
on the water side.
