Technical safety
The appliance contains a small quantity
of the environmentally-friendly, though
flammable, refrigerant R600a. Make sure
that the pipes of the refrigerant circuit are
not damaged during transport or

ignition away from the appliance,
u Ventilate the room well for a few
minutes,
u Switch off the appliance and unplug it
from the mains,

The more refrigerant an appliance
contains, the larger the room must be in
which it stands. If there is a leak and the
room is too small, a flammable gas-air
mixture may form.
The room must be at least 1 ma in size
for each 8 g of refrigerant. The quantity
of refrigerant in your appliance is stated
on the rating plate inside the appliance.
