inspections to be carried out.
The following types of maintenance work should be carried out annually:
●
Checking of the water pressure
●
Checking of the pressure relief valve
●
Conducting visual checks on the PCBs and terminals
●
Cleaning of the dirt catchers
●
Checking of the FI protection switch

WARNING
Danger to life from electric shock!
The devices are operated with 230-V or 400-V alternating current. Touching the live electrical
cables can be life-threatening.
►
Service and maintenance work must only be carried out by an accredited electrician or
an authorised dealer.
►
Before commencing any maintenance work, ensure that the electricity supply is
switched off and is secured against being turned on by mistake.
►
Before opening the device, make sure that the entire system is disconnected from the
electric supply. Especially in case of outdoor units of split systems, see that the electric
supply of the hydro-module or combination hydro-module, the tank and the E-heating
element is disconnected.
7.1 Checking of the water pressure
Carry out the following steps:
1. Check the system pressure on the manometer (
→
4.6.2.1 Components (split systems),
p. 32
,
→
4.6.3.1 Components (compact systems), p. 47
).
The water pressure should not fall below 0.5 bar (0.05 MPa). Under normal operating
conditions, the water pressure should be between 0.5 and 3.0 bar (0.05 and 0.3 MPa).
2.
If the system pressure is below the target pressure, top up the fluid (

6.9.2 Filling and
venting the water system, p. 194
).
7.2 Checking of the pressure relief valve
Carry out the following steps:
1. Place the lever (
