Refrigerant Gas Information
IMPORTANT: This appliance is provided with refrigerant
gas, ISOBUTHANE (R600a). When moving the appliance
take care to ensure that it is not excessively struck or
shaken. Failure to do so could damage the appliance.
Damage to the refrigerating circuit, with possible leaking
of refrigerating gas, could create a risk of explosion
caused by external sparks or ames.
In the Event of Accidental Leakage
Allow the material to evaporate providing that adequate
ventilation is provided.
Behaviour of the Gas
This refrigerant gas is highly ammable so do not allow
the gas to come into contact with hot surfaces or naked
ames. Gas R600a is heavier than air: if released it forms
a high concentration at oor level where ventilation is
poor.
First Aid
Inhalation
Take the exposed person from the polluted area and carry
them to a warm, well ventilated place.
Long exposure can cause the onset of asphyxia and
possible loss of consciousness. If necessary, practice
articial respiration, and in the most serious cases,
administer oxygen under close medical supervision.
Skin contact
It is unlikely that occasional contact with the skin is
dangerous. If this should happen thoroughly wash the
affected zone.
Liquid splashes and atomised liquid can cause freezing
burns. Wash the affected part with plenty of water and call
a doctor to treat any burns.
Eye contact
Wash with plenty of water, with eyelids well open, and call
a specialist doctor as soon as possible.
In any event, should you inhale or come into contact with
R600a gas, we advise you to consult your own doctor.
