What it means
The manual says: High-pressure switch-off. Reset autom.: High pressure in the refrigerant circuit has responded; automatic restart after some time.
When it shows: High pressure in the refrigerant circuit has responded; automatic restart after some time.
Likely causes:
- Insufficient heating water flow.
- Overflow valves.
- Temperature.
- Condensation.
Is it safe?
| Does the heat pump stop? | Yes |
|---|---|
| Severity | Fault — clears by itself when the condition goes |
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump stops until the fault clears or is reset.
Resetting itself: yes.
Manual reset: automatic.
What you can check
- Note the error number and text shown on the Luxtronik display.
- The controller resets this automatically after the stated time - wait for the automatic restart before calling.
- Acknowledge the message by pressing the rotary pushbutton for about 7 seconds (as the Luxtronik manual permits); if the same error reappears, contact your installer or ait customer service with the error number.
- Check the heat pump breakers/isolator at the consumer unit are on (do not open any casing).
- Check the heating system pressure gauge reading and report it to the installer.
What the engineer will check
- Check heating water flow.
- Check overflows.
- Check temperature and condensation.
Who to ask for: F-gas certified refrigeration / heat pump engineer (R290 flammable-refrigerant competence for propane units such as LWD).
Certification: F-gas certification (R407C/R410A units); flammable refrigerant training for R290 units.
