•

• This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant

(R600a), 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.

• The refrigerant and insulation blowing gas used in the appliance

require special disposal procedures. Consult with service agent or a

similarly qualified person before disposing of them.

• Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

• If the power cord is damaged or the hole of the outlet socket is loose,

do not use the power cord and contact an authorized service centre.

• Do not locate multiple portable socket-outlets or portable power

supplies at the rear of the appliance.

• Securely plug the power plug in the outlet socket after completely

removing any moisture and dust.

• Never unplug the appliance from the power supply by pulling on the

power cable. Always grip the power plug firmly and pull straight out

from the outlet socket.

mixture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the

room in which the appliance is used should correspond to the

amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 1 m² in size for every

8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance.
