THE REFRIGERANT R32
GENERAL WARNINGS
Appliance lled with ammable
gas R32.
• To realize the function of the air conditioner unit, a special refrigerant circulates in the system. The refrigerant is
the uoride R32 = GWP (Global warming potential). This refrigerant is ammable and inodorous. It can lead to
explosions under certain conditions, however the ammability of this refrigerant is very low and it can be ignited
only by re.
• Compared to other common refrigerants, R32 is a non-polluting refrigerant with no harm to the ozonosphere and
a lower effect upon the greenhouse effect. R32 has very good thermodynamic features which lead to a really high
energy efciency. The units therefore need less lling.
Warning:
Do not try to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean the appliance in different ways other than those recommended
by the manufacturer. Should repair be necessary, contact your nearest authorized Argoclima Service Centre. Any
repairs carried out by unqualied personnel may be dangerous. The appliance has to be stored in a room that doesn’t
have any continuously operating ignition sources. (for example: open ames, an operating gas appliance or an
operating electric heater.) Do not pierce or burn. Appliance has to be installed, operated and stored in a room with a
oor area larger than X m2. (Please refer to table “a” in section of “ Safety Operation of Inammable Refrigerant” for
Space X.) For repairs, strictly follow manufacturer’s instructions only for appliances lled with R32 ammable gas. Be
aware that refrigerants do not have any odour.
Before using the appliance,
read the owner’s manual.
Before installing the appliance,
