Technical safety
This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas
which is very environment friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the green house effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor, you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable, but does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance.
Care must be taken during transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the coolant system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
-avoid open fires
and anything which creates a spark,
-disconnect from the mains,
-air the room in which the appliance is located for several minutes and
-contact the Service Department for advice.
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 the danger of combustible gases building up.
For every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m3 room space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
