SEVERE WARNING SIGNS FOR TRANSPORTATION AND SITE
WARNING
When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no
parts of the refrigerating circuit are damaged.
- Refrigerant leaking from the pipe work 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.
Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.
The room where the refrigerator will be sited must be 1m³ 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.
