WARNINGS CONCERNING APPLIANCES CONTAINING REFRIGERANT
•
R290 refrigerant is classed under category A3 as highly flammable.
•
The appliance must be stored in a room without any permanent ignition source
(such as open flames, operating gas appliance or operating electric heating).
•
Do not use means for accelerating the defrosting or cleaning process other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
•
No not perforate or incinerate.
•
Please note that R290 refrigerant may give off a certain odour.
INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
•
The appliance may not be installed close to combustible materials, or the air duct
inlet of an adjacent building.
•
With some appliances, it is essential to fit a "protection grid"-type accessory if the
unit is installed in an area with uncontrolled access.
•
During installation, troubleshooting and maintenance, pipes may not be used as
steps: the pipe could break under the weight, spilling refrigerant and possibly
causing serious burns.
•
When servicing the appliance, the composition and state of the heat transfer fluid
must be checked, as well as the absence of any traces of refrigerant.
•
During maintenance work, ensure there are no traces of corrosion or oil around
the cooling components.
WARNINGS ASSOCIATED WITH ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
•
The power supply to the appliance must be protected by a dedicated 30 mA Residual
Current Device (RCD), complying with the standards and regulations in force in the
country in which it is installed.
•
Do not use any extension lead when connecting the appliance; connect the
appliance directly to a suitable power supply.
•
Before carrying out any operations, check that:
- The required input voltage indicated on the appliance information plate
corresponds to the mains voltage;
- The mains supply is compatible with the appliance's electricity needs and is
correctly grounded.
•
In the event of abnormal operation or the release of odours from the appliance,
turn it off immediately, unplug it from its power supply and contact a professional.
•
Before servicing or performing maintenance on the appliance, check that it is
powered off and completely disconnected from the power supply. Moreover,
check that the heating priority (where applicable) is deactivated and that any
other device or accessory connected to the appliance is also disconnected from
the power supply.
• Do not disconnect and reconnect the appliance to the power supply when in
operation.
•
Do not pull on the power cord to disconnect it from the power supply.
•
If the power cord is damaged, it must be only replaced by the manufacturer, an
authorised representative or a repair shop.
•
Do not perform maintenance or servicing operations on the appliance with wet
hands or if the appliance is wet.
•
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, check that the connection
unit or socket to which the appliance will be connected is in good condition and
shows no signs of damage or rust.
• In stormy weather, disconnect the appliance from the power supply to prevent it
from suffering lightning damage.
•
Do not immerse the appliance in water or mud.
•
