Other operation modes
Defrost (
d
)
In heat pump domestic water heating operation, freezing of the air
heat exchanger may occur due to low ambient temperature. If this
risk occurs, the system goes into defrost operation. It takes heat from
the compressor to undo freezing of the heat exchanger. After a
maximum of 20 minutes of defrost operation, the system returns to
domestic water heating operation.
Powerful domestic water heating operation (
P
)
In the case of urgent need of domestic hot water and no hot water is
left in the domestic hot water tank, the domestic hot water
temperature set point can be reached quickly by pressing the
powerful button. The domestic water will be heating up to the set
point temperature fixed in the field setting. During operation in this
mode the
w
icon will be blinking with 0.2 seconds interval.
Powerful operation can only be set when the system is in ON mode.
When the system is in OFF mode and the powerful button (
P

Quiet mode operation (

)
Quiet mode operation means that the unit works at reduced capacity
so that the sound produced by the unit drops. This implies that the
domestic water heating capacity will drop. Beware of this when a
certain level of heating is required.
Selecting quiet mode operation
1
Use the
s
button to activate quiet mode operation.

There are 3 different levels of quiet mode operation. The desired
quiet mode is set through a field setting. Refer to the field settings
explained in the installation manual for a detailed description how to
set one or more field settings.
Disinfection operation
This mode will disinfect the domestic hot water tank by periodically
heating the domestic water to a specific temperature. During the
operation of this mode the
w
icon will be blinking slowly with
0.5 second intervals.
The disinfection temperature set point can be adjusted by field setting
[0-01].
Reheat
This feature is only valid in schedule timer mode.
Reheat will prevent the domestic hot water from cooling down lower
than a certain temperature. When enabled the unit will deliver hot
water to the domestic hot water tank when the reheat minimum value
is reached (taking into account the heat pump ON differential). The
domestic water heating will continue until the reheat maximum
temperature is reached.
