General safety instructions

These operating instructions are intended for the user of the heating 
system.

▶ Read any operating instructions (heat pump, heating controls, etc.) 

carefully before operation and keep them.

▶ Observe the safety instructions and warnings.

Intended use

This heat pump must only be used as a heat appliance in a sealed hot 
water heating system for domestic purposes.

Any other use is considered inappropriate. Any damage that results from 
such use is excluded from liability.

Safety of electrical appliances for domestic use and similar 
purposes

The following requirements apply in accordance with EN 60335-1 in 
order to prevent hazards from occurring when using electrical 
appliances:

“This device can be used by children of 8 years and up as well and by 
people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lacking 
in experience and knowledge, if they are supervised and have been given 
instruction in the safe use of the device and understand the resulting 
dangers. Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and user 
maintenance may not be performed by children without supervision”

“If the power supply cable is damaged, in order to avoid risks it must be 
replaced by the manufacturer or its customer service department or a 
similarly qualified person.”

Inspection and servicing

Regular inspection and maintenance are prerequisites for safe and 
environmentally compatible operation of the heating system.

We recommend you enter into a contract for the annual inspection and 
demand-dependent servicing with an authorised contractor.

▶ Have any work carried out only by an authorised contractor.
▶ If any faults are discovered, have them remedied immediately.

Modifications and repairs

Unprofessional modifications to the heat pump or other parts of the 
heating system can result in injury and/or damage to property or 
equipment. 

▶ Have any work carried out only by an authorised contractor.
▶ Do not remove the casing of the heat pump.
▶ Do not modify the heat pump or other parts of the heating system in 

any way.

Room air

The air in the installation room must be free of combustible or chemically 
aggressive substances.

▶ Do not use or store combustible or explosive materials (paper, 

propellants, thinners, paints, etc.) within the vicinity of the appliance.

▶ Do not use or store corrosive substances (solvents, adhesives, 

chlorinated cleaning agents, etc.) within the vicinity of the appliance.

General

Cooling is disabled in the UK model to comply with 

the regulations for RHI.

Heat pump AirX is together with heat pump module AirModule or Airbox 
part of a series of heating systems that use outside air to provide energy 
for water transferred heat and hot water.

By reversing the process and extract heat from the water and release it 
into the outdoor air, the heat pump can if needed produce cooling. This 
however requires the heating system to be intended for cooling.

The heat pump outdoors is connected to a heat pump module indoors 
and possibly also an external heat source, which constitutes a complete 
heating system. The heat pump module with an integrated immersion 
heater, or the external source, acts as a supplement when additional 
heat is needed, for example if the outside temperature is too low for 
effective heat pump operation.

The heating system is operated via a user interface, which is found in the 
heat pump module. The user interface manages and supervises the 
system with different settings for heat, cold, hot water and other 
operations. The monitoring function will e.g. turn off the heat pump in 
case of disturbances to avoid damage to vital components.

2.1

Control unit

The user interface in the heat pump module manages heat production 
based on outside temperature sensors and possibly in combination with 
a room controller (accessories). House heating is automatically adjusted 
depending on the outside temperature.

The user determines the heating system temperature by setting the 
desired room temperature in the user interface or on the room 
controller.

A number of accessories can be connected to the heat pump module 
(e.g. pool, sun, and room controllers), providing extra functions and 
setting possibilities controlled via the user interface. You will find more 
information on the accessories in their user guides.

2.2

Use

After the heat pump and the heat pump module have been installed and 
taken into operation, some regular maintenance is required. This might 
include checking on an alarm, or other simple maintenance. The user is 
usually able to solve the problem, however if it remains, the retailer 
should be contacted.
