This appliance contains a certain amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a) a natural gas with high
environmental compatibility that is, however, also combustible.
when transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts of
the refrigerating circuit are damaged.
Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected,
avoid any naked flames or potential sources of ignition and air the room in which appliance is
standing for several minutes.

• In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas-air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit
occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the amount of
refrigerant used.
The room must be 1m³ in size for every 8g of R600a refrigrant inside the appliance.

The amount

of refrigerant is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance.

• Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. lf in doubt, consult your dealer.
