gas with a high level of environmental compatibility; however, caution is required 
as isobutene is a flammable gas.  It is essential to ensure that refrigerant tubes 
are not damaged during transportation and the installation of the appliance.  In 
the event that the refrigerant circuit is damaged, avoid naked flames or sources 
of ignition and ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.

concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their 
safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with 
the appliance. 

-

 

If using an adaptor, this must be used in accordance with the manufacturers 
instructions and ensure that the electrical circuit is not overloaded as this 
could cause overheating. 

-
