ing process, other than those recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
■
Mechanical intervention in the refrig-
eration system must only be carried

tor with sharp objects, bending the
piping, or cutting open the insulation.
■
Ensure that none of the cooling fi ns
or tubes on a cooling appliance are
damaged prior to the point of proper
disposal.

To prevent the formation of a fl am-
mable gas-air mixture in the event of
a leakage in the refrigeration circuit,
the installation space must have a
minimum size of 1 m
