  • Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
  • Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance unless they are of a type recommended by the manufacturer.

WARNING

  • Handle the unit with care in order to avoid any serious damage to the refrigeration system.
  • The refrigerant tubing, condenser, and evaporator coils are prone to damage while handling, moving, installing, and cleaning the unit, which may lead to fire or even explosion.
  • 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 located.To avoid the creation of a flammable gas-air mixture from a leaking refrigerating circuit, the size of the room in which the appliance is placed depends on the amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 35.31ft3 (1m³) in size for every 0.28oz (8g) of R-600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the label inside the cabinet.

**** This appliance contains a small amount of propane (R-290) or isobutane (R-600a) refrigerant, a natural gas with high environmental compatibility, but it is also combustible. When transporting and installing the appliance, ensure that no part of the refrigerating circuit is damaged.

  • Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. When in doubt, contact a qualified service professional.
  • In case of any hazardous activities such as fire or explosion, move the unit away from any source of ignition to a well ventilated area.
