shows no signs of damage or rust.
• For any component or sub-assembly containing a battery: do not recharge or
dismantle the battery, or throw it into a fire. Do not expose it to high temperatures
or direct sunlight.
• In stormy weather, disconnect the appliance from the power supply to prevent it
from suffering lightning damage.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water (with the exception of cleaners) or mud.
WARNINGS CONCERNING APPLIANCES CONTAINING REFRIGERANT
• R32 refrigerant is classed under category A2L as mildly flammable.
• Do not release R32 or R410A fluid into the atmosphere. These are fluorinated
greenhouse gases, covered by the Kyoto Protocol, with a Global Warming Potential
(GWP) of 675 for R32 and 2088 for R410A (European regulation EU 517/2014).
• The appliance must be stored in a well-ventilated location away from all ignition
sources.
• Install the unit outdoors. Do not install the unit indoors or in an enclosed and non-
ventilated outdoor location.
• Do not use means for accelerating the defrosting or cleaning process other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
• The appliance must be stored in a room without any permanent ignition source
(such as open flames, operating gas appliance or operating electric heating).
• No not perforate or incinerate.
• Please note that R32 refrigerant may give off a certain odour.
• In order to comply with the applicable standards and regulations in terms of the
environment and installation, in particular French decree No. 2015-1790 and/or
European regulation EU 517/2014, a leak test must be performed on the cooling
circuit at least once a year. This operation must be carried out by a specialist
certified to test cooling appliances.
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 the annual appliance sealing test in accordance with applicable legislation,
the high and low pressure switches must be checked to ensure that they are
securely fastened to the refrigerant circuit and that they cut off the electrical circuit
when tripped.
• During maintenance work, ensure there are no traces of corrosion or oil around
the cooling components.
• Before beginning work on the cooling circuit, stop the appliance and wait for a few
minutes before fitting the temperature and pressure sensors. Some elements such
as the compressor and piping may reach temperatures in excess of 100°C and high
pressures with the consequent risk of severe burns.
