Remedy
Check that the appliance is
connected to the 220-240 V
power supply.
Check whether the circuit
breaker in the electrical panel
has tripped. If required, dis-
connect the appliance from
the power supply and replace
the circuit breaker. Contact
your contractor if the circuit
breaker blows again after the
appliance is connected to the
power supply.
Check the air intake grille
and air discharge grille for
contamination. Remove
any contamination (See 15,
"Maintenance and cleaning",
pg. 27). Check thermostat
setting.
Wait for the appliance to cool
down. Call a qualified con-
tractor if the appliance does
not switch back on automat-
ically.
Wait until the appliance
switches back on automati-
cally.
No action required.
Notify a qualified contractor if
water continues to drip when
heating is completed. Check
the sealing of the P&T valve if
a sand filter is used. If expan-
sion volume is too small, in-
stall a larger expansion tank.
The amount of condensate
depends on the air humidity
level.
The temperature drop de-
pends on the hot water
demand and the size of the
installation room. If the
temperature drop of the in-
stallation room is more than
7°F (4 °C) check the size of the
installation room.

Remedy
Notify a qualified contractor.
It is imperative that you notify
a qualified contractor.
No action required.
No action required. The
compressor is blocked for 20
minutes from starting again
after it has been switched off
in normal operation. The com-
pressor switches itself on au-
tomatically after the 20 minute
blocking time has elapsed.
The symbol stops flashing au-
tomatically.
No action required. The ap-
pliance continues the rapid
heat-up process using the
heat pump. The symbol stops
flashing when the controller
releases the "electric emer-
gency/booster heater". The
symbol goes out when the
temperature throughout the
DHW cylinder reaches the set
temperature of 149 °F (65 °C).
