Cooling circuit
The cooling circuit is factory tested for leaks.
This appliance complies with statutory safety
requirements and the appropriate EU guidelines.
This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally
friendly. Although flammable, it does not damage the
ozone layer.
The use of this coolant has led to a slight increase
in the noise level of the appliance. Additionally you
might be able to hear the coolant flowing through the
system. This does not have any adverse effects on
the performance of the appliance.
WARNING: If cooling circuit is damaged;
• Leaking coolant can damage the eyes
• Avoid naked flames or anything that creates a spark.
• Disconnect the appliance from the mains electricity
supply if damage is caused to the cooling system.
• Ventilate the room.
• The more coolant there is in an appliance the larger
the room it should be installed in. In the event of a
leakage, if the appliance is in a small room, there is
danger of a combustible gas build up. The amount
of coolant is stated on the data plate inside the
appliance. For every 8g of coolant at least 1m
3
of
room space is required.
