•If the appliance contains iso-butane refrigerant (R-600a), a natural gas with high environmental compatibility that is, however, 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. Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer. 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.

ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR PROPER USAGE

•In the event of a power failure, call the local office of your Electricity Company and ask how long it is going to last.

-Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your freezer temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.

-But Should the power failure last more than 24 hours, remove all frozen food.

•If the key is provided with freezer, the keys should be kept out of the reach of children and not in vicinity of the appliance.

•The appliance might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or temperature becoming too warm in the freezer) when sited for an extended period of time below the cold end of the range
