by a refrigeration mechanic with appropriate Australian refrigerant
handling license.
• WARNING Risk of fire/flammable material. If the refrigerant is
leaked, together with an external ignition source, there is a
possibility of ignition.
• DO NOT store chemicals or flammable materials near this
appliance.
• NEVER use a flammable spray such as hair spray, paint, etc near
this unit as this may cause a fire.
• The appliance should not be stored or transported in an area with
an ignition source (e.g. open flame).
• Do no pierce or burn the appliance.
• Be aware that the refrigerant may not cause an odour.
• Compliance with AS/NZS 5601 must be observed while storing
the appliance.
• National and state regulations exist for the storage, transportation
and handling of hazardous goods including flammable gasses.
The maximum number of and configuration of the equipment

⚠ WARNING
• Risk of fire/flammable material. If the refrigerant is leaking, switch
o the unit at the mains and contact the service agent.
• DO NOT store chemicals or flammable materials near this
appliance.
• NEVER use a flammable spray such as hair spray, paint, etc near
this unit as it may cause fire.
• Avoid risk of injury from contact with refrigerant if you notice a
leak.
• If you suspect the refrigerant is leaking then Do not smoke or
operate electrical equipment.
• End of life recycling: The refrigerant must not enter the
atmosphere. Only have the refrigerant removed by qualified
professional.
If the hot water system is not used for two weeks or more,
a quantity of highly flammable hydrogen gas may accumulate
in the water heater. To dissipate this gas safely, it is recom-
mended that a hot tap be turned on for several minutes or until
discharge of gas ceases. Use a sink, basin, or bath outlet, but
not a dishwasher, clothes washer, or other appliance. During
this procedure, there must be no smoking, open flame, or any
electrical appliance operating nearby. If hydrogen is discharged
through the tap, it will probably make an unusual sound as with
air escaping.
