Troubleshooting

12.1

Overview: Troubleshooting

This chapter describes what you have to do in case of problems.

It contains information about:

▪ Solving problems based on symptoms

▪ Solving problems based on error codes

Before troubleshooting

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

12.2

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  shunt  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 hazards due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal
cut-out:  power  to  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

12.3

Solving problems based on
symptoms

12.3.1

Symptom: The unit is NOT heating as
expected

Possible causes

Corrective action

The temperature setting is NOT
correct

Check the temperature setting on
the remote controller. Refer to
the operation manual.

Possible causes

Corrective action

The water flow is too low

Check and make sure that:

▪ All shut-off valves of the water

circuit are completely open.

▪ The  water  filters  are  clean.

Clean if necessary.

▪ There  is  no  air  in  the  system.

Purge  air  if  necessary.  You
can  purge  air  manually  (see

"To  perform  a  manual  air
purge" on page 62

) or use the

automatic  air  purge  function
(see 

"To perform an automatic

air purge" on page 63

).

▪ The water pressure is >1 bar.

▪ The  expansion  vessel  is  NOT

broken.

▪ The  resistance  in  the  water

circuit  is  NOT  too  high  for  the
pump  (see  the  ESP  curve  in
the "Technical data" chapter).

If the problem persists after you
have conducted all of the above
checks, contact your dealer. In
some cases, it is normal that the
unit decides to use a low water
flow.

The water volume in the
installation is too low

Make sure that the water volume
in the installation is above the
minimum required value (see

"6.4.3 To check the water volume
and flow rate" on page 19

).

12.3.2

Symptom: The compressor does NOT
start (space heating or domestic water
heating)

Possible causes

Corrective action

The unit must start up out of its
operation range (the water
temperature is too low)

If the water temperature is too
low, the unit uses the backup
heater to reach the minimum
water temperature first (15°C).

Check and make sure that:

▪ The  power  supply  to  the

backup  heater  is  correctly
wired.

▪ The  backup  heater  thermal

protector is NOT activated.

▪ The backup heater contactor is

NOT broken.

If the problem persists after you
have conducted all of the above
checks, contact your dealer.

The preferential kWh rate power
supply settings and electrical
connections do NOT match

This should match with the
connections as explained in

"6.5 Preparing electrical
wiring" on page 21

 and 

"7.9.7 To

connect the main power
supply" on page 35

.

The preferential kWh rate signal
was sent by the electricity
company

Wait for the power to return (2
hours max.).
