Safety instructions
Hazard instructions for avoiding electric shock and damage to health
2 Safety instructions
2.1 General hazard instructions for avoiding electric shocks
2.2 General hazard instructions to avoid damage to health
• Only qualified electricians may perform the electrical installation work.
• All service and maintenance work must also be performed by a certi-
fied electrician or an authorised dealer.
• Keep children and persons who are unfamiliar with the system clear
of the working area.
• When working on the device, comply with the national and local
standards and regulations.
• The cables and electricity connections, including existing connec-
tions, must be suitable for the electrical capacity of the heat pump.
• Do not use non-approved mains cables, modified cables or extension
cables to connect to the electricity mains.
• The device must be earthed correctly. It may not be earthed to gas
or water pipes, lightning conductors or the earthing of the telephone
system.
• Comply with the respective national wiring rules and safety
precautions for fault current. Panasonic recommends that
you use a RCD.
Danger! Observe and comply with the following hazard instructions.
If you fail to do so, there is a danger of electric shock or fire.
Danger! Observe and comply with the following hazard instructions. If you fail to
do so, there is a risk of fatal injury or damage to health.
• Work involving the refrigerant may only be performed by a qualified
person or an authorised dealer with a refrigerant handling certificate.
• The refrigerant can cause freezing if it comes in contact with skin.
• Only use the refrigerant specified. The refrigerant may not be mixed
with other types of refrigerant or replaced with other types of refrigerant.
Using other refrigerants can damage the device and result in safety
problems. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility or warranty if

Safety instructions
Safety instructions
Hazard instructions for avoiding material damage
refrigerants of types other than R410A are used for the Aquarea LT
series and T-CAP or R407C for the Aquarea HT series.
• If there is a refrigerant leak during installation or operation, ventilate
the room and extinguish any sources of fire. If you do not do so,
contact with fire can result in toxic gases.
• Do not install the device in locations where leaks of flammable gases
can occur. Otherwise there is a risk of fire or explosions.
• Install the refrigerant pipes correctly before switching on the
com-
pressor.
If the refrigerant pipes are not tightly connected when the
compressor is running, and the valves are opened, air is drawn in.
That increases the pressure in the refrigerant circuit and results in
a risk of explosion and injury, amongst others.
Stop compressor
operation before you
remove the refrigerant pipes.
• Only use the monobloc device in sealed water systems. Use in an
open-vented system can result in excessive corrosion of the water
pipes and increase the risk of bacteria colonies forming in the water,
legionella in particular.
2.3 General hazard instructions for avoiding material damage
• All installation work for the water circuit must comply with all relevant
European and national regulations (including EN 61770).
• The monobloc unit is only intended for external installation and may
not be installed indoors.
• Use only enclosed or specified parts.
• If the monobloc unit is to be installed close to the sea,
in highly sulphurous regions or regions with high oil-contents
(e.g. machine oil etc.), its service life may be reduced.
Warning! Observe and comply with the following instructions. If you do not, there
is a risk of material damage, e.g. via vibration, water leaks or fire.

General Information
2.4 General further information
• Air / water heat pumps require planning permission in Wales and
Northern Ireland and must meet certain criteria in England and Scot-
land to be classed as a permitted development. If in doubt, check with
your local planning office.
• For details on preventing water pipes freezing and heat and cold
protection, see the WRAS guidelines and BS EN 806 and BS 6700.
• The design handbook for split systems and monobloc systems
contains further information on the device.
NOTE The following information provides recommendations or advanced
assistance.
