4. Refrigerating fluid
The refrigerating circuit in the appliance uses isobutane (R600a) as refrigerant, which is a highly
flammable natural gas and therefore dangerous for the environment. When transporting or
installing the appliance, ensure that no element of the refrigerating circuit is damaged. The
refrigerating fluid (R600a) is flammable.
Caution: Fire risk
If the refrigerating circuit is damaged:
• Avoid open flames or any source of combustion.
• Ensure that the room in which the appliance is installed is well ventilated. It is dangerous to
change the specifications of the appliance in any way whatsoever. Damage to the power cable
may cause a short circuit and/or electric shock.
Safety instructions R600a
• Do not obstruct the ventilation grilles on the appliance.
• Do not store any explosive substances, such as aerosol cans containing a flammable propellant,
in the appliance.
• Do not damage the refrigerating circuit in the appliance.
• The refrigerating units use isobutane (R600a) and should not be placed close to ignition
sources (for example, electrical contacts that are exposed or open contacts that could be
closed by the refrigerating fluid in the event of a leak). The refrigerating fluid type is specified
on the power cabinet identification plate.
• Do not use any electrical equipment in the compartments of the appliance, unless they are
recommended by the manufacturer.
