5 Transporting and setting up
5.1 Transporting and setting up the outdoor unit
Caution The outdoor unit must always be transported and stored upright in a
dry environment. Secure the heat pump so that it cannot tip over dur-
ing transportation.
Caution If the heat pump is tilted more than 30°, in any direction, it may be-
come seriously damaged as the oil in the compressor can run out in
the pressure pipe and therefore prevent normal functionality.
