SAFETY
- This appliance does not contain CFC or HFC (The refrigerating circuit contains R600A - ISOBUTANE).
- Isobutane is a natural refrigerating gas which does not affect the environment, despite the fact that in certain cir-
cumstances it may present a risk if the appropriate steps are not taken.
- Therefore, during transit, installation and use, deterioration of the refrigeration system elements must be pre-
vented. If these elements are damaged in any way, flames or incandescent bodies must be avoided at all times.
- If the refrigerant is lost, prevent open flames or ignition sources near the leak point.
- Isobutane (R600A) is heavier than air, and therefore concentrates on the floor.
In the event of deterioration, the room where the appliance is located must be ventilated.
