Technical safety
The appliance contains a small quantity of
environmentally friendly but flammable
refrigerant R600a. Ensure that the tubing of
the refrigerant circuit is not damaged during
transportation and installation. Leaking
refrigerant may cause eye injuries or ignite.
If damage has occurred
■
Keep naked flames and/or ignition
sources away from the appliance,
■
thoroughly ventilate the room for several
minutes,
■
switch off the appliance and pull out the
mains plug,

The more refrigerant an appliance contains,
the larger the room must be in which the
appliance is situated. Leaking refrigerant
can form a flammable gas-air mixture in
rooms which are too small.
The room must be at least 1 m³ per 8 g
of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in
your appliance is indicated on the rating
plate inside the appliance.

damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, customer service or a
similarly qualified person. Improper
installations and repairs may put the user

manufacturer, customer service or a
similarly qualified person only.
Only original parts supplied by the
