What it means

The manual says: No outside temperature sensor, short circuit or out of range.

Part involved: ATW-CPA-02 advanced system controller.

Is it safe?

Does the heat pump stop?Partly
SeverityWarning
Engineer needed?Yes

The heat pump keeps running with some functions stopped.

Resetting itself: yes - when condition clears.

What you can check

  • Read and note the alarm code and any retry code (e.g. P70) shown on the unit controller.
  • Check the heat pump supply breaker/isolator at the consumer unit is ON.
  • Restart once via the unit controller (or switch off/on at the isolator) - the manual states the unit must be stopped to release most alarms; if the code returns, call an engineer.

What the engineer will check

  • Check sensor operation and wiring.

Who to ask for: Heat pump service engineer.
