Manual reset: User may clear via KT-2A / Cloud.Kronoterm "Confirm"; conditions re-checked.
What you can check
- Note the full code (4-digit number + bit, e.g. 2115-b8) from the KT-2A diagnostic menu or Cloud.Kronoterm alarm list.
- Reset/confirm the alarm once from the KT-2A or Cloud.Kronoterm ("Confirm") as the manual allows; if still active 10 min after the reset, contact the installer who commissioned the system.
- Check the outdoor unit (or air ducts for VERSI-I) is not blocked by snow, leaves or debris.
What the engineer will check
- Diagnose via KSM service menu / Cloud.Kronoterm technician access.
- Refrigerant circuit checks (pressures, charge, leak test, EEV) - F-gas certified engineer.
Who to ask for: heat pump engineer (Kronoterm-trained) / F-gas.
Certification: F-gas certification for refrigerant work.
