Technical safety
~Before setting up the appliance, check it for any externally visible damage. Do not install and use a damaged appliance.
A damaged appliance is dangerous.
~If the connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a service technician authorised by the manufacturer to protect the user from danger.
~This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse 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 the transportation and installation of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
- avoid open flames 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 of room space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
~Safe operation of the appliance is only assured if it has been installed and connected in accordance with these operating and installation instructions.
~Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains electricity supply.
