Checklist for yearly maintenance
of the outdoor unit

Check the following at least once a year:

▪ Outdoor unit heat exchanger.

The  heat  exchanger  of  the  outdoor  unit  can  get  blocked  up  due  to
dust,  dirt,  leaves,  etc.  It  is  recommended  to  clean  the  heat
exchanger  yearly.  A  blocked  heat  exchanger  can  lead  to  too  low
pressure or too high pressure leading to worse performance.

Troubleshooting

10.1

Overview: Troubleshooting

In case of problems:

▪ See 

"7.5 Error codes when performing a test run" on page 21

.

▪ See the service manual.

Before troubleshooting

Carry  out  a  thorough  visual  inspection  of  the  unit  and  look  for
obvious defects such as loose connections or defective wiring.

10.2

Precautions when troubleshooting

WARNING

▪ When  carrying  out  an  inspection  on  the  switch  box  of

the unit, always make sure that the unit is disconnected
from the mains. Turn off the respective circuit breaker.

▪ When a safety device was activated, stop the unit and

find  out  why  the  safety  device  was  activated  before
resetting  it.  NEVER  bridge  safety  devices  or  change
their  values  to  a  value  other  than  the  factory  default
setting.  If  you  are  unable  to  find  the  cause  of  the
problem, call your dealer.

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION

WARNING

Prevent  hazard  due  to  the  inadvertent  resetting  of  the
thermal  cut-out:  this  appliance  must  NOT  be  supplied
through  an  external  switching  device,  such  as  a  timer,  or
connected to a circuit that is regularly turned ON and OFF
by the utility.

DANGER: RISK OF BURNING

11

Disposal

11.1

Overview: Disposal

Typical workflow

Disposing of the system typically consists of the following stages:

1

Pumping down the system.

2

Dismantling the system according to the applicable legislation.

3

Treating  the  refrigerant,  oil  and  other  parts  according  to  the
applicable legislation.

INFORMATION

For more details, see the service manual.

11.2

About pump down

The  unit  is  equipped  with  an  automatic  pump  down  function,  with
which you can collect all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor
unit.

Example: 

To  protect  the  environment,  pump  down  when  relocating

the unit or when disposing of the unit.

NOTICE

The outdoor unit is equipped with a low pressure switch or
a low pressure sensor to protect the compressor by turning
it OFF. NEVER short-circuit the low pressure switch during
pump down operation.

11.3

To pump down

DANGER: RISK OF EXPLOSION

Pump  down  –  Refrigerant  leakage.

  If  you  want  to  pump

down the system, and there is a leakage in the refrigerant
circuit:

▪ Do NOT use the unit's automatic pump down function,

with  which  you  can  collect  all  refrigerant  from  the
system  into  the  outdoor  unit. 

Possible  consequence:

Self-combustion  and  explosion  of  the  compressor
because of air going into the operating compressor.

▪ Use  a  separate  recovery  system  so  that  the  unit's

compressor does NOT have to operate.

1

Turn ON the main power supply switch.

2

Make  sure  the  liquid  stop  valve  and  the  gas  stop  valve  are
open.

3

Press the pump down button (BS4) for at least 8 seconds. BS4
is located on the PCB in the outdoor unit (see wiring diagram).

Result: 

The  compressor  and  outdoor  unit  fan  start

automatically, and the indoor unit fan might start automatically.

4

±2 minutes after the compressor started, close the 

liquid stop

valve

.  If  it  is  not  closed  properly  during  compressor  operation,

the system cannot be pumped down.

5

Once  the  compressor  stops  (after  2~5  minutes),  close  the 

gas

stop valve

.

Result: 

The  pump  down  operation  is  finished.  The  user

interface  may  display  "

"  and  the  indoor  pump  may  continue

operating. This is NOT a malfunction. Even if you press the ON
button  on  the  user  interface,  the  unit  will  NOT  start.  To  restart
the unit, turn OFF the main power supply switch and turn it ON
again.

6

Turn OFF the main power supply switch.

NOTICE

Make sure to reopen both stop valves before restarting the
unit.
