Safety instructions explained
Danger
This symbol warns against the
risk of injury.
!Please note
This symbol warns against the
risk of material losses and envi-
ronmental pollution.
Note
Details identified by the word "Note" con-
tain additional information.
Target group
These instructions are exclusively
designed for qualified contractors.
■ Work on the refrigerant circuit must
only be carried out by qualified and
authorised refrigeration engineers
■ Work on electrical equipment must
only be carried out by a qualified elec-
trician
■ The system must be commissioned by
the system installer or a qualified per-
son authorised by the installer
Regulations
Observe the following when working on
this system:
■ National installation requirements
■ Legal instructions regarding the pre-
vention of accidents
■ Legal instructions regarding environ-
mental protection
■ The Code of Practice of relevant trade
associations
■ All current safety regulations as
defined by DIN, EN, DVGW, VDE and
all locally applicable standards
aÖNORM, EN and ÖVE
cSEV, SUVA, SVTI and SWKI
Working on the system
■ Isolate the system from the power sup-
ply and check that it is no longer 'live',
e.g. by removing the separate fuse or
by means of a main isolator
Note
In addition to the control circuit, there
may be several power circuits.
Danger
Contact with 'live' components
can lead to severe injuries.
Some components on the
PCBs will remain 'live' even
after the power supply has
been switched off.
Before removing covers from
appliances, wait at least 4
minutes for the power to dissi-
pate.
■ Safeguard the system against unau-
thorised reconnection

!Please note
Electronic assemblies can be
damaged by electrostatic dis-
charges.
Before beginning work, touch
earthed objects, such as heating
or water pipes, to discharge static
loads.
Repair work
!Please note
Repairing components that fulfil a
safety function can compromise
the safe operation of your sys-
tem.
Replace faulty components only
with original Viessmann spare
parts.
Auxiliary components, spare and
wearing parts
!Please note
Spare and wearing parts that
have not been tested together
with the system can compromise
its function. Installing non-author-
ised components and making
non-approved modifications or
conversions can compromise
safety and may invalidate our
warranty.
For replacements, use only orig-
inal spare parts supplied or
approved by Viessmann.

Type AWCI-M-AC 301.A
Reversible air/water heat pump with inte-
gral circulation pump (secondary pump),
3-way diverter valve and safety assem-
bly.
Type AWO-M-AC 301.A
Air/water heat pump without integral cir-
culation pump (secondary pump) or 3-
way diverter valve. A secondary pump
assembly (secondary pump and circula-
tion pump for cylinder heating) is availa-
ble as an accessory.
The 4 red cores in the heat pump control
unit must be removed for the external
circulation pumps to be connected (see
page 75).
General information - electrical connection
■Connecting cables from control
panel – heat pump control unit:
Observe information from page 63.
■Electrical connection of system
components (pumps, mixers, valves,
alarm facilities, contactors, function
extensions, sensors, etc.):
These connections are made inside
the heat pump control unit. Observe
information from page 71.
■Power supply:
The number of power cables from the
distribution board (meter box) to the
heat pump control unit and to the con-
trol panel depends on the system ver-
sion and tariffs used.
These connections are made inside
the heat pump control panel. Observe
information from page 97.

Installation room requirements
!Please note
Incorrect ambient conditions can
lead to system damage and can
put safe operation at risk.
■ The installation room must be
dry and free from the risk of
frost.
Ensure ambient temperatures
are higher than 0 °C and lower
than 35 ºC.
■ Prevent air contamination by
halogenated hydrocarbons
(e.g. as contained in paints,
solvents or cleaning fluids) and
excessive dust (e.g. through
grinding/polishing work).
■ Avoid continuously high humid-
ity levels (e.g. through frequent
drying of washing).
Note
Cool vapour is expelled from the air duct
on the discharge side during defrosting.
Take this into account when siting the
appliance (selecting the installation
room, determining the intake and dis-
charge sides).
!Please note
Overloading the floor can result in
building damage.
Observe the permissible floor
load.
■ Total weight type AWCI-M-AC 301.A:
289 kg
■ To prevent structure-borne noise,
never site the appliance on ceilings
with wooden joists (e.g. in the attic).
■ Observe minimum clearances.
■ Level the appliance horizontally.
■ Required room height at least 2.10 m.
■ Observe the minimum room volume
required to EN 378 of 16.5 m3.
