About the refrigerant
This product contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. Do NOT vent
gases into the atmosphere.
Refrigerant type: R410A
Global warming potential (GWP) value: 2087.5
NOTICE
Applicable legislation on
fluorinated greenhouse gases
requires that the refrigerant charge of the unit is indicated
both in weight and CO
2
equivalent.
Formula to calculate the quantity in CO2 equivalent
tonnes:
GWP value of the refrigerant × total refrigerant
charge [in kg] / 1000
Please contact your installer for more information.
WARNING
The refrigerant in the system is safe and normally does not
leak. If the refrigerant leaks in the room, contact with a fire
of a burner, a heater or a cooker may result in a harmful
gas.
Turn off any combustible heating devices, ventilate the
room and contact the dealer where you purchased the unit.

After-sales service and warranty
19.4.1
Warranty period
▪ This product includes a warranty card that was filled in by the
dealer at the time of installation. The completed card has to be
checked by the customer and stored carefully.
▪ If repairs to the product are necessary within the warranty period,
contact your dealer and keep the warranty card at hand.
19.4.2
Recommended maintenance and
inspection
Since dust collects when using the unit for several years,
performance of the unit will deteriorate to some extent. As taking
apart and cleaning interiors of units requires technical expertise and
in order to ensure the best possible maintenance of your units, we
recommend to enter into a maintenance and inspection contract on
top of normal maintenance activities. Our network of dealers has
access to a permanent stock of essential components in order to
keep your unit in operation as long as possible. Contact your dealer
for more information.
When asking your dealer for an intervention, always state:
▪ The complete model name of the unit.
▪ The manufacturing number (stated on the nameplate of the unit).
▪ The installation date.
▪ The symptoms or malfunction, and details of the defect.
WARNING
▪ Do not modify, disassemble, remove, reinstall or repair
the unit yourself as incorrect dismantling or installation
may cause an electric shock or fire. Contact your
dealer.
▪ In case of accidental refrigerant leaks, make sure there
are no naked flames. The refrigerant itself is entirely
safe, non-toxic and non-combustible, but it will
generate toxic gas when it accidentally leaks into a
room where combustible air from fan heaters, gas
cookers, etc. is present. Always have qualified service
personnel confirm that the point of leakage has been
repaired or corrected before resuming operation.
19.4.3
Recommended maintenance and
inspection cycles
Be aware that the mentioned maintenance and replacement cycles
do not relate to the warranty period of the components.
