DANGER: RISK OF EXPLOSION
Pump down – Refrigerant leakage. If you want to pump down the system, and there
is a leak in the refrigerant circuit:
Do NOT use the unit's automatic pump down function, with which you can collect
all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor unit. Possible consequence: Self­combustion and explosion of the compressor because of air going into the operating compressor.
Use a separate recovery system so that the unit's compressor does NOT have to
operate.
WARNING
ALWAYS recover the refrigerant. Do NOT release them directly into the environment. Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the installation.
NOTICE
After all the piping has been connected, make sure there is no gas leak. Use nitrogen to perform a gas leak detection.
NOTICE
To avoid compressor breakdown, do NOT charge more than the specified amount
of refrigerant.
When the refrigerant system is to be opened, refrigerant MUST be treated
according to the applicable legislation.

Make sure to install the required fuses or circuit breakers.Make sure to install an earth leakage protector. Failure to do so may cause
electric shock or fire.
When installing the earth leakage protector, make sure it is compatible with the
inverter (resistant to high frequency electric noise) to avoid unnecessary opening of the earth leakage protector.

1 | General safety precautions
CAUTION
When connecting the power supply: connect the earth cable first, before making
the current-carrying connections.
When disconnecting the power supply: disconnect the current-carrying cables
first, before separating the earth connection.
The length of the conductors between the power supply stress relief and the
terminal block itself must be as such that the current-carrying wires are tautened before the earth wire is in case the power supply is pulled loose from the stress relief.
NOTICE
Precautions when laying power wiring:
Do NOT connect wiring of different thicknesses to the power terminal block (slack
in the power wiring may cause abnormal heat).
When connecting wiring which is the same thickness, do as shown in the figure
above.
For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect firmly, then secure to
prevent outside pressure being exerted on the terminal board.
Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the terminal screws. A screwdriver
with a small head will damage the head and make proper tightening impossible.
Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.
Install power cables at least 1 m away from televisions or radios to prevent interference. Depending on the radio waves, a distance of 1 m may not be sufficient.
WARNING
After finishing the electrical work, confirm that each electrical component and
terminal inside the electrical components box is connected securely.
Make sure all covers are closed before starting up the unit.
NOTICE
Only applicable if the power supply is three‑phase, and the compressor has an ON/ OFF starting method.
If there exists the possibility of reversed phase after a momentary black out and the power goes on and off while the product is operating, attach a reversed phase protection circuit locally. Running the product in reversed phase can break the compressor and other parts.

5.2 Setting up the space heating/cooling system

The heat pump system supplies leaving water to heat emitters in one or more rooms.
Because the system offers a wide flexibility to control the temperature in each room, you need to answer the following questions first:
How many rooms are heated or cooled by the heatpump system?
Which heat emitter types are used in each room and what is their design leaving
water temperature?
Once the space heating/cooling requirements are clear, we recommend to follow the setup guidelines below.
