NEW REFRIGERANT (R410A)
This Air to Water Heat Pump adopts a new refrigerant HFC (R410A) to prevent destruction of the ozone layer.  The working pressure of R410A refrigerant is 1.6 times higher than that of the conventional refrigerant R22.The refrigerant oil is also changed for the new refrigeration. Therefore, during installation or service work, be sure that water, dust, former refrigerant, or refrigeration machine oil does not enter the refrigerant cycle of the new type refrigerant Air to Water Heat Pump. A wrong installation or service operation may cause a serious accident.
Method of Defect Diagnosis
In order to diagnose the defective part of the heat pump system, first understand the symptom of the defect.
(1) Check the operation status. (It does not move, or it moves but stops, etc.)
(2) Flashing display on the display part of the hydro unit.
(3) Check the “check code” by the remote control.
Matters to be confirmed first
Check the power supply voltage
Check that the power supply voltage is AC220-230 V± 10 % (signal phase type), AC380-400 V± 10 % (3 phase type). If the power supply voltage is not in this range, it may not operate normally.
Check for any miswiring of the connection cables between the hydro unit and the outdoor unit
The hydro unit and the outdoor unit are connected with three connection cables. Make sure the interconnecting connections between the hydro unit and the outdoor unit terminal blocks are connected to the correct terminal numbers. If not connected correctly, the heat pump system does not operate. However, a miswiring would not cause damage to the equipment.
About the installation of the temperature sensor
If each sensor is removed due to the replacement of the water heat exchange or inverter board, or the replacement of the refrigeration cycle parts, make sure to put the sensor back to the position where it was before.
• Each sensor position has a marking. Make sure to put it back to the exact position.
• Make sure to install it with a sensor holder so that the temperature sensing part of the sensor and the straight part of the copper piping are attached with each other tightly.
• If the installation of the sensor is incomplete or the installed position is wrong, it will not perform a normal control operation and may cause a defect such as a malfunction of the equipment or an occurrence of an abnormal sound, etc.
Non-defective operation (program operation) … No fault code display appears.
In order to control the heat pump unit, there are the following operations as the built-in program operations in the microcomputer. If it does, please understand that the symptom is not a defect of the equipment, and it is an operation necessary for the control and maintenance of the heat pump unit.
How to determine from the check code on the remote control
If the defect is limited by the check code displayed on the remote control
The check codes are separated into two groups: software and hardware errors.
Since a hardware error cannot be cancelled without a part replacement etc., please perform a repair.
If its abnormality is determined, the abnormality is noticed by indicating the check code on the remote control check code display part while sounding off a buzzer.
How to cancel a check code on the remote controller
(1) Press Zone-2 or Hot Water button (on the operation side) to clear the check code.
Press CL to stop a buzzer for an abnormality only.
Although the above procedure cancels the check code, the hardware error will be displayed again until the hardware repair is completed. 
Outdoor Unit Failure Detection
Diagnosis procedure for each check code
• One check code may indicate multiple symptoms. In such a case, see the LED indication on the outdoor board to narrow down the check details.
• The handy remote controller displays a check code only when the same failure repeatedly occurs while the LED on the outdoor board indicates an error even if it occurs only once. This may cause indication inconsistency between the remote controller and LED.
Operation check by PC board switch
Operation check mode
This mode allows to check the operations of the water 2-way valve, water 3-way valve, mixing valve, and circulating pump. This operation is valid when the hydro unit and the outdoor unit are turned on the power.
Operation check mode
(1) Preparation
1) Turn all of the remote controls "OFF" for the hot water supply and heating.
2) Turn off the hydro unit and the outdoor unit.
3) Remove the front panel of the hydro unit.

How to set the Vodafone DTR remote to control your television

Find the brand of your television in the Set-up Code section and select the first 4 digit code in the list. Switch on your TV (not on standby).
Press the TV key and release it.
Press and hold down the Now’s Good key until the red LED underneath the TV key lights up twice.
Enter the 4-digit code for your television (the red LED should light up twice after having entered the fourth digit).
Press the Power key and see if you are able to switch off your television.
If your television does not respond, repeat steps with each code listed for your brand. If none of the codes listed for your brand operate your television, or if your brand is not listed, try the code search. 
Switch your television back on by pressing a number key (or CH+) and check if all the functions are working correctly.
Write down the code for your television on the inside of the battery cover  for quick easy reference.
Programming Notes
• If your device does not respond to the remote after trying all codes listed or your brand is not listed in the code list, use the Auto Code Search method to program your remote.
• Sometimes the first code that “works” with your device may operate only a few functions of your device. There may be another code in the code list that performs more functions. Try other codes from the code list for more functionality.
This is a trial and error procedure; and quiet time consuming. You might have to check different codes said for your device.
Code search
If your device does not respond to the DTR remote after having tried all the codes listed for your brand, you can try the Code search. During the Code search you will run through every available code in the DTR remote library. This method may also work if your brand is not listed at all.
Make sure that your television is switched on.
Press the TV key and release it.
Press and hold down the Now’s Good key until the red LED (underneath the TV key) lights up twice.
Press 9 9 1. The red LED will light up twice.
Aim the DTR remote at your device.
Next press power.
Aim the DTR remote at your Television.  Now press CH+ over and over, until your Television turns off.
Every time you press the CH+ key the DTR remote will send out a POWER signal from the next code contained in the PVR library.
You may have to press this key many times (up to 150 times) so please be patient. The Code search can take approximately 15 minutes.
If you skip past a code, you can go to the previous code(s) by pressing the CH- key. Remember to keep pointing the remote at your device during the Code search.
As soon as the device switches off, press Now’s Good key to store this code.
Press the corresponding device key when doing a Code search. If your device does not have a POWER key, press PLAY instead.

How to unlock a TV which displays a red key on the screen.

You will need the original remote to unlock the TV if you aren't sure of the unlock code. If you don't have the original remote, you will need to purchase one.
If you see a blank screen with a red key on the bottom of the screen, press 'Function' and 'Mute' at the same time. This should unlock the channel. This is an option for people who want the TV to stay locked but, want to be able to bypass the lock to watch a certain show or channel. All other channels will remain locked and the TV will fully lock when it is turned off.
Unlock all of the channels on the TV by entering the factory reset code. There are three main reset codes that TV manufacturers set. These are 0711, 6688 and 3308. Try each one until you find the one that works. This will reset the TV to original factory settings. When you do this, you will lose any information that you have stored in the TV, such as favorite channels, automatic timers and the clock. You will have to go through the full initial set up.
