Energy saving tips
Tips about room temperature
▪ Make sure the desired room temperature is NEVER too high, but
ALWAYS according to your actual needs. Each saved degree can
save up to 6% of heating costs.
▪ Do NOT increase the desired room temperature to speed up
space heating. The space will NOT heat up faster.
▪ When your system layout contains slow heat emitters (example:
under floor heating), avoid large fluctuation of the desired room
temperature and do NOT let the room temperature drop too low. It
will take more time and energy to heat up the room again.
▪ Use a weekly schedule for your normal space heating needs. If
necessary, you can easily deviate from the schedule:
▪ For shorter periods: You can overrule the scheduled room
temperature.
Example:
When you have a party, or when you
are leaving for a couple of hours.
▪ For longer periods: You can use the holiday mode.
Example:
When you stay at home during your holiday, or when you go
away during your holiday.
▪ Use a weekly schedule for your normal space heating needs. If
necessary, you can easily deviate from the schedule:
▪ For shorter periods: You can overrule the scheduled room
temperature until the next scheduled action.
Example:
When
you have a party, or when you are leaving for a couple of hours.
▪ For longer periods: You can use the holiday mode.
Tips about DHW tank temperature
▪ Use a weekly schedule for your normal domestic hot water needs
(only in scheduled mode).
▪ Program to heat up the DHW tank to a preset value (
Storage
comfort
= higher DHW tank temperature) during the night,
because then space heating demand is lower.
▪ If heating up the DHW tank once at night is not sufficient,
program to additionally heat up the DHW tank to a preset value
(
Storage eco
= lower DHW tank temperature) during the day.
▪ Make sure the desired DHW tank temperature is NOT too high.
Example:
After installation, lower the DHW tank temperature daily
by 1°C and check if you still have enough hot water.
▪ Program to turn ON the domestic hot water pump only during
periods of the day when instant hot water is necessary.
Example:
In the morning and evening.

Maintenance and service
5.1
Overview: Maintenance and
service
The installer has to perform a yearly maintenance. You can find the
contact/helpdesk number via the user interface.
As end user, you have to:
▪ Keep the area around the unit clean.
▪ Keep the user interface clean with a soft damp cloth. Do NOT use
any detergents.
Refrigerant
This product contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. Do NOT vent
gases into the atmosphere.
Refrigerant type: R32
Global warming potential (GWP) value: 675
NOTICE
Applicable legislation on
fluorinated greenhouse gases
requires that the refrigerant charge of the unit is indicated
both in weight and CO
2
equivalent.
Formula to calculate the quantity in CO
2
equivalent
tonnes:
GWP value of the refrigerant × total refrigerant
charge [in kg] / 1000
Please contact your installer for more information.
WARNING: FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The refrigerant inside this unit is mildly flammable.
WARNING
The appliance shall be stored in a room without
continuously operating ignition sources (example: open
flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric
heater).
WARNING
▪ Do NOT pierce or burn refrigerant cycle parts.
▪ Do NOT use cleaning materials or means to accelerate
the defrosting process other than those recommended
by the manufacturer.
▪ Be aware that the refrigerant inside the system is
odourless.
WARNING
The refrigerant inside the unit is mildly flammable, but
normally does NOT leak. If the refrigerant leaks in the
room and comes in contact with fire from a burner, a
heater, or a cooker, this may result in fire, or the formation
of a harmful gas.
Turn off any combustible heating devices, ventilate the
room, and contact the dealer where you purchased the
unit.
Do NOT use the unit until a service person confirms that
the part from which the refrigerant leaked has been
repaired.
