Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
~
Before setting up the appliance, check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not install and use a damaged appliance.
It could be dangerous.
~
If the connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a
service technician authorised by the manufacturer to protect the
user from danger.
~
This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural
gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it
does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the
greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led to a
slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the
noise of the compressor, you might be able to hear the coolant
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 installation of the
appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking
refrigerant can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
– avoid any flames or anything which creates a spark,
– disconnect it from the mains,
– ventilate the room where the appliance is located for several
minutes, and
– contact the Service Department for advice.
