3.1

Operating Settings

1. Your commissioning engineer should have set up the

operating settings of your Baxi Ambiflo

TM

Heat pump. 

2. For the system to operate correctly and efficiently these

settings should not be altered. This section details the user

controls, which your installer should familiarise you with during

commissioning the system. These controls are used to set room

temperatures and operating times. 

3. If you are in any doubt please contact your installer or a

qualified heat pump installation engineer. Alteration of some

settings could adversely affect the operation of the Baxi

Ambiflo

TM

system and may also affect the warranty of the unit.

4. As with any heating system there are certain aspects that will

require regular checking and/or maintenance. Any maintenance

or servicing should only be carried out by qualified personnel.

5. If the Ambiflo

TM

has been shut down for a period and turned

off at the isolator, it is important to check the system water

pressure prior to switching the isolator back on. The water

pressure gauge on the right hand side of the unit should show a

minimum of 1bar pressure. If the pressure is below this, top up

the system using the filling point provided. If you are unsure of its

position, or cannot identify it, contact your installer who fitted

the Heat Pump.

3.2

Operating the Time and Temperature Controller

1. The Baxi Ambiflo

TM

Heat Pump has been configured to work

at its optimum efficiency by your commissioning engineer and

the external settings should not be altered. 

2. The heating settings are controlled via the Aquaset Controller

which is fitted in your property. Your installer should have shown

you its location and functions. 

3. The controller’s icons are shown in Figs 1 and 2 and a

description of the unit’s functions is given below. Fig 1 shows the

display and the user buttons; Fig 2 shows a key of the control

icons and their meaning.

3.3

Time and Date Setting

1. Set the dial to ‘Time and Date’ (Fig. 2 Item 7) to display the

time.

2. Press the ‘+’ button once and the small numbers on the left

hand side of the display will flash. These are the days of the week

shown as 1 to 7. Set the day by using the ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons then

press ‘OK’.

3. The time will now flash. Set the time using the ‘+’ and ‘-’

buttons then press ‘OK’.
