The refrigerant contained in the heat pump should not be released in the atmosphere, since it
contributes to global warming of the planet (GWP = 1725).
DANGER!
The refrigerant should be recovered for recycling or elimination according to current legislation.
Do not directly touch the area where the leak has occurred, as this could result in severe frostbite
injuries.
Ventilate the area immediately.
Anyone who has come into contact with refrigerant vapour must evacuate the area immediately and
breathe fresh air.
Direct exposure of the refrigerant to a flame produces toxic gas. However, this gas can be detected by
its odour when at concentrations well below the permitted limits.
Hydraulic installation
Installation and subsequent interventions on the heating, brine or DHW circuits must only be performed by authorised personnel in
accordance with applicable local regulations and the instructions provided in this manual.
Do not touch the pipes or other components of the hydraulic circuits during or immediately after heat
pump operation; this can result in burns caused by cold or heat. If these components need to be

touched, allow sufficient time for the temperatures to stabilise and wear protective gloves to avoid
injury.
Electrical system
Any intervention on the electrical system must only be performed by an authorised electrician in accordance with applicable local
regulations and the instructions provided in this manual.
The heat pump must be supplied with an external switch that can shut off all the circuits.
Before performing any operation on the electrical panel, disconnect the power supply.
DANGER!
During installation and maintenance of the equipment never leave the electrical panel unattended
while it is exposed.
Do not touch any component of the electrical panel with wet hands as this could cause an electric
shock.
Scrapping
Before scrapping the heat pump, the refrigerant inside the pump must be recovered and disposed of according to current
legislation.
