Technical safety
The refrigerant system is tested for leaks. This appliance complies
with statutory safety requirements.
This appliance contains the refrigerant Isobutane (R600a), a natu-
ral gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is combustible,
it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the green-
house effect.
The use of this refrigerant has, however, led to a slight increase in
the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the com-
pressor, you might be able to hear the refrigerant flowing around the
system. This is unavoidable, and does not have any adverse effect
on the performance of the appliance.
Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the
appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking
refrigerant can cause severe irritation to the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
– avoid open flames and anything that creates a spark,
– disconnect the appliance from the electrical power supply,
– ventilate the room where the appliance is located for several min-
utes, and
– contact Miele Technical Service.
