What it means
The manual says: Maximum temperature reached, external heat/cooling generator 1.
Part involved: Maximum temperature reached, external heat/cooling generator 1.
When it shows: System characteristics:; Heat pump temporarily off; External heat generator 1 not ready for operation.
Likely causes:
- Max. temperature of external heat generator 1 reached.

The heat pump keeps running with some functions stopped.
Resetting itself: Not stated per code in Viessmann document 6199893 GB 01/2026 (VSA00009).
Manual reset: User may acknowledge via HMI after noting the code (6249162 p.57); the message returns if the cause persists.
What you can check
- On the HMI, tap the message and "?" to read the system characteristics and Viessmann's user tips; note the code (e.g. F.xxx) and text for your contractor (operating instructions 6249162 p.57).
- Acknowledge the message once via the HMI; do not acknowledge fault messages several times in quick succession (6249162 p.58) - notify your contractor.
- Check the heat pump breaker/isolator in the consumer unit is ON (do not repeatedly reset a breaker or RCD that keeps tripping).
- Check the operating program, time program and room temperature settings on the HMI.
What the engineer will check
- Check connections and plug-in connection at TS2.1/ TS2.2 on HIO electronics module.
- Check resistor R for NTC 10 kΩ on disconnected plug.
- If fault occurs frequently, check following settings:.
- For external heat generator.
- For secondary circuit See installation and service instructions for external heat generator and associated control unit.
Who to ask for: Viessmann-trained heat pump installer/service engineer.
