1.2 Safety Warnings
1.2.1 H ANDLING AND T RANSPORT
• When transporting, moving and installing the heat pump, ensure that it is not tilted by more than 45° (in any
direction), for any prolonged period of time (see figure 2).
• Do not attempt to lift the heat pump manually, as it weighs 110-130kg and should only be lifted using the
appropriate lifting devices.
• Ensure that there is a clear pathway for a truck to deliver the heat pump as close to the selected location as
possible.
• The installer must use a suitable lifting method, in accordance with health and safety regulations.
• Straps must also be used with lifting rods to prevent the heat pump from toppling.
1.2.2 G ENERAL
• Installation and any service work on the heat pump may only be performed by an authorised and qualified installer
and after-sales service technicians.
• Additional heating may be required if the heat pump is intended to dry out a new or renovated building, as the initial
heat load may be higher than the design load.
• Products not installed with the Dimplex hydraulics packs will not be supported by Dimplex. This includes but is not
limited to thermal stores.
• All information and instructions regarding how the device is fixed to its supporting plinth can be found in section
2.1.3 of this installation manual.
1.2.3 S AFETY
• The heat pump contains refrigerant at high pressure. Safety measures are in place to avoid system pressure build
up.
− Stage 1: Pressure transducer stops compressor.
− Stage 2: Pressure switch switches heat pump off. All safety devices reset automatically.
• The heat pump has a multi-layered, software generated alarm management system, which prevents it from running
outside its operating limits. If an alarm / message occurs, the heat pump will attempt to take remedial action before
causing the system to stop completely if the problem persists. However, the overriding safety feature is the high
pressure switch, which de-energises the main contactor supplying power, in accordance with EN378.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the
appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
