This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), natural

gas with high environmental compatibility, but it is 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 the 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 1 in size for every 8g of R600a

refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is

shown on the identification plate inside the appliance. Never start up an appliance

showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear

of obstruction.

Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process,

other than those recommended by the manufacturer.

Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the

appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.

The refrigerant and insulation blowing gas used in the appliance require special

disposal procedures. When disposal, please consult with service agent or a similarly

qualified person.
