What it means

The manual says: Function check: Fault, instantaneous heating water heater.

Part involved: Function check: Fault, instantaneous heating water heater.

Likely causes:

  • Limited or no function of the instantaneous heating water heater.
  • The function check has detected a fault in the instantaneous heating water heater.

Is it safe?

Does the heat pump stop?Not stated
Engineer needed?Yes

The manual does not say whether the heat pump stops.

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 system pressure shown on the HMI "System overview" (6249162 p.35) or pressure gauge and report a low reading; make sure the filling loop is closed.

What the engineer will check

  • Check the following connections:.
  • Wall mounted indoor unit: 230 V~ junction box, terminals 136.1 to 136.N3 Floorstanding indoor unit: 230 V~/400 V~ terminal area, lower luster terminal, terminals 136.L1 ….
  • Relays K3, K5 and K7 on the EHCU electronics module.
  • High limit safety cut-out.
  • Instantaneous heating water heater.
  • Check wires and plugs for correct seating.
  • Check connections for contact corrosion.
  • Check cables for mechanical damage, e.g. crushing, kinking, chafing or breakage. Replace the cables if necessary.

Who to ask for: Viessmann-trained heat pump installer/service engineer.
