5 minutes for your safety
EN-6
Fire hazard!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to fi re and damage to prop-
erty.
■
Do not connect to a timer or a sep-
arate remote-controlled system for
distance monitoring and control.
■
Do not locate multiple portable
socket outlets or portable power
supplies at the rear of the appli-
ance.
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 manufac-
turer. 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 interior are scratch and
heat-sensitive and can melt.
■
Do not use electrical appliances
inside the food storage compart-
ments of the appliance, unless they
are of the type recommended by
the manufacturer.
■
Keep the appliance away from open
fl ames and hot surfaces.
■
Mechanical intervention in the re-
frigeration system must only be car-
ried out by authorised specialists.
■
Do not damage the refrigerant cir-
cuit, e.g. by puncturing the refrig-
erant channels of the condensate
evaporator with sharp objects,
bending the piping, or cutting open
the insulation.
■
Refrigerant is fl ammable when
spurting out and can damage the
eyes. In this case, rinse your eyes in
clean water and seek medical assis-
tance immediately.
■
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 m³ per 8
g of refrigerant in compliance with
the EN 378 standard. The amount
of refrigerant contained in your ap-
pliance 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 substanc-
es or spray cans with fl ammable
propellants inside the appliance as
they may create ignitable gas-air
mixtures.
■
Never use defrosting sprays to de-
frost. They can generate explosive
gases.
