Caution

THERE IS A NOTICE BELOW FOR APPLIANCES

USING R-600a AS A REFRIGERANT.

NOTICE

Environment–friendly fridge / freezer using R-600a refrigerant and cyclopentane blowing agent

•This product protects the environment by using the R-600a refrigerant and the cyclopentane blowing agent.

•Properties:

ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential): 0

GWP (Global Warming Potential): Lowest

High–energy efficiency

•Optimized power consumption when using R-600a and cyclopentane.

R134a or R-600a is used as a refrigerant. You can check the compressor label on the rear of the appliance and the rating label inside the fridge.

This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), a 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 1m3 in size for every 8g 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.

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, useless they are of a type recommended by the manufacturer.
