12 Maintenance and service

NOTICE

Maintenance MUST be done by an authorised installer or service agent.

We recommend performing maintenance at least once a year. However, applicable
legislation might require shorter maintenance intervals.

NOTICE

Applicable legislation on

fluorinated greenhouse gases

requires that the refrigerant

charge of the unit is indicated both in weight and CO

equivalent.

Formula to calculate the quantity in CO

equivalent tonnes:

GWP value of the

refrigerant × total refrigerant charge [in kg] / 1000

12.1 Overview: Maintenance and service

This chapter contains information about:

▪

Maintenance safety precautions

▪

The yearly maintenance of the outdoor unit

12.2 Maintenance safety precautions

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION

DANGER: RISK OF BURNING/SCALDING

NOTICE: Risk of electrostatic discharge

Before performing any maintenance or service work, touch a metal part of the unit in
order to eliminate static electricity and to protect the PCB.

WARNING

▪

Before carrying out any maintenance or repair activity, ALWAYS switch off the
circuit breaker on the supply panel, remove the fuses or open the protection
devices of the unit.

▪

Do NOT touch live parts for 10 minutes after the power supply is turned off
because of high voltage risk.

▪

Please note that some sections of the electric component box are hot.

▪

Make sure you do NOT touch a conductive section.

▪

Do NOT rinse the unit. This may cause electric shocks or fire.

12.3 Checklist for yearly maintenance of the outdoor unit

Check the following at least once a year:
