1 | General safety precautions
▪ In case recharge is required, see the nameplate of the unit. It states the type of
refrigerant and necessary amount.
▪ The unit is factory charged with refrigerant and depending on pipe sizes and pipe
lengths some systems require additional charging of refrigerant.
▪ Only use tools exclusively for the refrigerant type used in the system, this to
ensure pressure resistance and prevent foreign materials from entering into the
system.
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.
WARNING
Make sure there is no oxygen in the system. Refrigerant may only be charged after
performing the leak test and the vacuum drying.
Possible consequence: Self-combustion and explosion of the compressor because of
oxygen going into the operating compressor.
▪ Charge the liquid refrigerant as follows:
IfThen
A siphon tube is present
Charge with the cylinder upright.
(i.e., the cylinder is marked with "Liquid
filling siphon attached")
A siphon tube is NOT presentCharge with the cylinder upside down.
▪ Open refrigerant cylinders slowly.
▪ Charge the refrigerant in liquid form. Adding it in gas form may prevent normal
operation.
CAUTION
When the refrigerant charging procedure is done or when pausing, close the valve of
the refrigerant tank immediately. If the valve is NOT closed immediately, remaining
pressure might charge additional refrigerant. Possible consequence: Incorrect
refrigerant amount.

1 | General safety precautions
WARNING
▪ ONLY use copper wires.
▪ Make sure the field wiring complies with the applicable legislation.
▪ All field wiring MUST be performed in accordance with the wiring diagram
supplied with the product.
▪ NEVER squeeze bundled cables and make sure they do NOT come in contact with
the piping and sharp edges. Make sure no external pressure is applied to the
terminal connections.
▪ Make sure to install earth wiring. Do NOT earth the unit to a utility pipe, surge
absorber, or telephone earth. Incomplete earth may cause electrical shock.
▪ Make sure to use a dedicated power circuit. NEVER use a power supply shared by
another appliance.
▪ 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.
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.
Installer reference guide
12
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.

▪ How many rooms are heated or cooled by the heatpump 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.
NOTICE
If an external room thermostat is used, the external room thermostat will control the
room frost protection. However, the room frost protection is only possible if the
leaving water temperature control on user interface of the unit is turned ON.
INFORMATION
In case an external room thermostat is used and room frost protection needs to be
guaranteed in all conditions, then you have to set auto emergency [A.6.C] to 1.
NOTICE
An overpressure bypass valve can be integrated in the system. Keep in mind that this
valve might not be shown on the illustrations.

Underfloor heating or radiators – Wireless room thermostat
Benefits
▪ Highest comfort and efficiency. The smart room thermostat functionality can
decrease or increase the desired leaving water temperature based on the actual
room temperature (modulation). This results in:
- Stable room temperature matching the desired temperature (higher comfort)
- Less ON/OFF cycles (more quiet, higher comfort and higher efficiency)
- Lowest possible leaving water temperature (higher efficiency)
▪ Easy. You can easily set the desired room temperature via the user interface:
- For your daily needs, you can use preset values and schedules.
- To deviate from your daily needs, you can temporarily overrule the preset
values and schedules, or use the holiday mode.

▪ Code: [C-05]
Benefits
▪ Cooling. The heat pump convector offers, besides heating capacity, also excellent
cooling capacity.
▪ Efficiency. Optimal energy efficiency because of the interlink function.
▪ Efficiency. Underfloor heating has the best performance with the heat pump
system.
▪ Comfort. The combination of the two heat emitter types provides:
- The excellent heating comfort of the underfloor heating
- The excellent cooling comfort of the heatpump convectors
5.2.2 Multiple rooms – OneLWT zone
If only one leaving water temperature zone is needed because the design leaving
water temperature of all heat emitters is the same, you do NOT need a mixing
valve station (cost effective).
Example: If the heatpump system is used to heat up one floor where all the rooms
have the same heat emitters.
1 (Thermo ON/OFF): When the used
external room thermostat or heatpump
convector can only send a thermo ON/
OFF condition.
Underfloor heating or radiators – Thermostatic valves
If you are heating up rooms with underfloor heating or radiators, a very common
way is to control the temperature of the main room by using a thermostat (this can
either be the user interface or an external room thermostat), while the other
rooms are controlled by so-called thermostatic valves, which open or close
depending on the room temperature.

▪ For more information about connecting the electrical wiring to the unit, see:
- "8.2Connections to the outdoor unit"[490]
- "8.3Connections to the indoor unit"[491]
▪ For each room, a shut-off valve (field supplied) is installed to avoid leaving water
supply when there is no heating or cooling demand.
▪ A bypass valve must be installed to make water recirculation possible when all
shut-off valves are closed. To guarantee reliable operation, provide a minimum
water flow as described in table "To check the water volume and flow rate" in
"7.2Preparing water piping"[465].
▪ The user interface connected to the indoor unit decides the space operation
mode. Mind that the operation mode on each room thermostat must be set to
match the indoor unit.
▪ The room thermostats are connected to the shut-off valves, but do NOT have to
be connected to the indoor unit. The indoor unit will supply leaving water all the
time, with the possibility to program a leaving water schedule.
