Risks associated with using
refrigerants
WARNING
Risk of fi re and explosion!
Your appliance’s refrigeration circuit
contains the environmentally friend-
ly, but fl ammable refrigerant R600a
(isobutane).
■
Do not use mechanical devices or
other means to accelerate the de-
frosting process, other than those
recommended by the manufacturer.
For example, do not use any electric
heating equipment, knives or devices
with an open fl ame such as a candle.
The thermal insulation and the interi-
or are scratch and heat-sensitive and
can melt.
■
Do not use electrical appliances in-
side the food storage compartments
of the appliance, unless they are of
the type recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
■
Keep the appliance away from open
fl ames and hot surfaces.
■
Mechanical intervention in the refrig-
eration system must only be carried
out by authorised specialists.
■
Do not damage the refrigerant cir-
cuit, e.g. by puncturing the refrigerant
channels of the condensate evapora-
tor with sharp objects, bending the
piping, or cutting open the insulation.
■
Refrigerant is fl ammable when spurt-
ing out and can damage the eyes. In
this case, rinse your eyes in clean wa-
ter and seek medical assistance im-
mediately.
■
To prevent the formation of a fl am-
mable gas-air mixture in the event
of a leakage in the refrigeration cir-
cuit, the installation space must have
a minimum size of 1 m
3
per 8 g of
refrigerant in compliance with the
EN 378 standard. The amount of re-
frigerant contained in your appliance
can be found on the type plate.
■
To avoid the formation of sparks, do
not pull out the mains plug in the
event of a gas leak.
Risks associated with chemical
substances
CAUTION
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of chemical sub-
stances can lead to explosions.
■
Do not store explosive substances
such as aerosol cans with a fl amma-
ble propellant in this appliance.
■
Do not store explosive substances or
spray cans with fl ammable propel-
lants inside the appliance as they
may create ignitable gas-air mixtures.
■
Never use defrosting sprays to de-
frost. They can generate explosive
gases.
