▪ Make  sure  that  the  user  has  the  printed  documentation  and  ask

him/her to keep it for future reference. Inform the user that he can
find the complete documentation at the URL mentioned earlier in
this manual.

▪ Explain the user how to properly operate the system and what to

do in case of problems.

▪ Show the user what to do for the maintenance of the unit.

Maintenance and service

NOTICE

Maintenance  MUST  be  done  by  an  authorized  installer  or
service agent.

We  recommend  performing  maintenance  at  least  once  a
year. However, applicable legislation might require shorter
maintenance intervals.

NOTICE

In  Europe,  the 

greenhouse  gas  emissions

  of  the  total

refrigerant charge in the system (expressed as tonnes CO

2

equivalent) is used to determine the maintenance intervals.
Follow the applicable legislation.

Formula  to  calculate  the  greenhouse  gas  emissions:

GWP value of the refrigerant × Total refrigerant charge [in
kg] / 1000

10.1

Overview: Maintenance and
service

This chapter contains information about:

▪ Preventing  electrical  hazards  when  maintaining  and  servicing  the

system

▪ The refrigerant recovery operation

10.2

Maintenance safety precautions

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION

DANGER: RISK OF BURNING

NOTICE: Risk of electrostatic discharge

Before performing any maintenance or service work, touch
a metal part of the unit in order to eliminate static electricity
and to protect the PCB.

10.2.1

To prevent electrical hazards

When performing service to inverter equipment:

1

Do  NOT  open  the  electrical  component  box  cover  for
10 minutes after turning off the power supply.

2

Measure  the  voltage  between  terminals  on  the  terminal  block
for power supply with a tester and confirm that the power supply
is  shut  off.  In  addition,  measure  points  as  shown  in  the  figure,
with a tester and confirm that the voltage of the capacitor in the
main circuit is less than 50 V DC.

3

To  prevent  damaging  the  PCB,  touch  a  non-coated  metal  part
to  eliminate  static  electricity  before  pulling  out  or  plugging  in
connectors.

4

Pull  out  junction  connectors  for  the  fan  motors  in  the  outdoor
unit before starting service operation on the inverter equipment.
Be  careful  not  to  touch  the  live  parts.  (If  a  fan  rotates  due  to
strong  wind,  it  may  store  electricity  in  the  capacitor  or  in  the
main circuit and cause electric shock.)

Junction connectors

X106A for M1F

X107A for M2F

5

After the service is finished, plug the junction connector back in.
Otherwise  the  malfunction  code  E7  will  be  displayed  and
normal operation will not be performed.

For  details  refer  to  the  wiring  diagram  labelled  on  the  back  of  the
service cover.

Pay attention to the fan. It is dangerous to inspect the unit while the
fan is running. Make sure to turn off the main switch and to remove
the fuses from the control circuit located in the outdoor unit.

10.3

Checklist for yearly maintenance
of the outdoor unit

Check the following at least once a year:

▪ Heat exchanger

The heat exchanger of the outdoor unit can get blocked up due to
dust,  dirt,  leaves,  etc.  It  is  recommended  to  clean  the  heat
exchanger  yearly.  A  blocked  heat  exchanger  can  lead  to  too  low
pressure or too high pressure leading to worse performance.

Troubleshooting

11.1

Overview: Troubleshooting

Before troubleshooting

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

11.2

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.
