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.

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 1m
