Important Safety Instruction
WARNING
Keep ventilation openings, in the
appliance enclosure or in the
built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
Do not use mechanical devices or other
means to accelerate the
defrosting process, other than those recommended by the
manufacturer.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
Do not use electrical appliances inside
the food storage
compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type
recommended by the manufacturer.
The refrigerant and insulation blowing
gas used in the appliance
require special disposal procedures. When disposal, please consult
with service agent or a similarly qualified person.
This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant
(R600a), natural gas with high environmental compatibility, but it is also
combustible. When transporting and installing the appliance, care should
be taken to ensure that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are
damaged. Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an
eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential
sources of ignition and air the room in which the appliance is standing
for several minutes.
In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas air mixture if a leak in
the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the
appliance may be sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used. The
room must be 1 m
2
in size for every 8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the
appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown
on the identification plate inside the appliance. Never start up an
appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.
