2.2 Refrigerant
2.2.1 Refrigerant
Warning Work on the refrigerant circuit must only be carried out by a certified
engineer!
Although the heat pump cooling system (refrigerant circuit) is filled with a chlorine-free and environmentally-approved refrigerant, work
on the refrigerant circuit may only be carried out by authorized persons.
2.2.2
Fire risk
This appliance is charged with R32, a mildly flammable refrigerant.
2.2.3 Toxicity
In normal use and normal conditions the refrigerant has low toxicity. However, although the toxicity of the refrigerant is low, it can cause
injury (or be highly dangerous) in abnormal circumstances or where deliberately abused.
Warning Risk of personal injury! Spaces in which heavy vapor can collect below
the level of the air must be well ventilated.
Refrigerant vapor is heavier than air and, in enclosed spaces below the level of a door for example, and in the event of leakage, concen-
trations can arise with a resultant risk of suffocation due to a lack of oxygen.
Warning Risk of personal injury! Refrigerant exposed to a naked flame creates a
poisonous irritating gas.
This gas can be detected by its odor even at concentrations below its permitted levels. Evacuate the area until it has been sufficiently
ventilated.
