FAULT FINDING
IMPORTANT
• Any required parts should be purchased from Mitsubishi Electric parts.
• Disconnect the electrical supply before removing any electrical equipment covers.
• NEVER bypass any thermal controls or operate system without the necessary safety valves.
• Water contained in the Air Source Heat Pump pre-plumbed cylinder may be very hot, especially following a thermal control
failure. Caution must be taken when drawing water from the unit.
The fault finding table (above) will enable operational faults to be identified and their possible causes rectified. Any work carried
out on this unvented water heater and its associated controls MUST be carried out by a competent installer for unvented
water heating systems. In case of doubt contact Technical Support (see contact details on back page).
WARNING
DO NOT TAMPER WITH ANY OF THE SAFETY VALVES OR CONTROLS SUPPLIED WITH THE PRE-PLUMBED CYLINDER
AS THIS WILL INVALIDATE ANY GUARANTEE.
