WARNING!
There is a danger of scalding at target hot water
temperatures over 60 °C. This is possible, as
the utility company (EVU) is entitled to control
current draw optimised according to supply and
demand in the definitions for Smart Grid.
Due to such forced charging, the target hot
water temperature in the hot water storage tank
can exceed 60 °C.
This storage tank charging is carried out even
when "Standby" operating mode is set.
●
Install scald protection in the hot water distri-
bution line (e.g. VTA32,
15 60 15 + Screw
set 1",
15 60 16).

Activation of emergency automatic operation ensures
that heating and hot water requirements are reliably
met even if the heat pump fails. However, the risk is run
that the user only notices the system malfunction after
a certain time, and that electricity consumption is thus in-
creased.
If emergency automatic operation is deactivated (default
setting), it must be activated as described below to meet heating
and hot water requirements in the event that the outdoor unit
fails.
