Cooling circuit
The cooling circuit is factory tested for leaks.
This appliance complies with statutory safety
requirements and the relevant Standards.
This appliance contains coolant Isobutane (R600a)
which is less environmentally damaging, although it is
flammable.
The use of this coolant has led to a slight increase
in the noise level of the appliance. Additionally you
might be able to hear the coolant flowing through the
system. This does not have any adverse effects on
the performance of the appliance.
Take care during transportation and installation to
prevent the cooler elements from being damaged.
WARNING:
If cooling circuit is damaged:
•
Leaking coolant can damage the eyes
•
Avoid naked flames or anything that creates a
spark.
•
Disconnect the appliance from the mains electricity
supply if damage is caused to the cooling system.
•
Move away from flames and heat sources and
ventilate the room for a few minutes.
•
The more coolant 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
danger of a combustible gas build up. The amount
of coolant is stated on the data plate inside the
appliance. For every 11g of coolant at least 1m
3
of
room space is required.
Package information
