Global warming potential (GWP) value: 675
Refrigerant type: R410A
Global warming potential (GWP) value: 2087.5
NOTICE
In Europe, the greenhouse gas emissions of the total
refrigerant charge in the system (expressed as tonnes
CO -equivalent) is used to determine the maintenance
2
intervals. Follow the applicable legislation.
Formula to calculate the greenhouse gas emissions:
GWP value of the refrigerant × Total refrigerant charge [in
kg] / 1000
Please contact your installer for more information.
WARNING: FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The R32 refrigerant (if applicable) in this unit is mildly
6
flammable.
(a) Refer to the outdoor unit specifications for the type of
refrigerant to be used.
WARNING
▪ Do NOT pierce or burn refrigerant cycle parts.
▪ Do NOT use cleaning materials or means to accelerate
the defrosting process other than those recommended
by the manufacturer.
▪ Be aware that the refrigerant inside the system is
odourless.
WARNING
R410A is a non-combustible refrigerant, and R32 is a
mildly flammable refrigerant; they normally don't leak. If the
refrigerant leaks in the room and comes in contact with fire
from a burner, a heater, or a cooker, this may result in a
fire (in case of R32), or the formation of a harmful gas.
Turn off any combustible heating devices, ventilate the
room, and contact the dealer from where you purchased
the unit.
Do not use the unit until a service person confirms that the
part from which the refrigerant leaked has been repaired.
