Correct usage

the manufacturer and could be
dangerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held liable for damage caused by
improper use of the appliance.
Technical safety
This appliance contains the coolant
Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas
which is very environmentally friendly.
Although it is flammable, it does not
damage the ozone layer and does not
increase the greenhouse effect. The
use of this environmentally friendly
coolant has however led to a slight
increase in the noise level of the
appliance.
In addition to the noise of the
compressor you might be able to hear
the coolant flowing around the system.
This is unavoidable, but does not have
any adverse effect on the performance
of the appliance.
Care must be taken during
transportation and setting up of the
appliance that no parts of the cooling
system are damaged. Leaking coolant
can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
– avoid open fires
and anything which creates a spark,
– disconnect from the mains,
– air the room in which the appliance is
located for several minutes and
– contact the Service Department
for advice.
The more refrigerant there is in an
appliance the larger the room it
should be installed in. In the event of a
leakage, if the appliance is in a small
room, there is the danger of
combustible gases building up.
For every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m
3
room space is required. The amount of
coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply, make sure that
the rating on the data plate
corresponds to the voltage and
frequency of the household supply.
This data must correspond in order to
avoid risk of damage to the appliance.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
