The Refrigerant
WARNING：
To realize the function of the air conditioner unit, a special refrigerant circulates in
the system. The used refrigerant is R32.
The refrigerant is mildly flammable and inodorous. Furthermore, it can lead to explosion
under certain conditions. But the flammability of the refrigerant is very low. It can
be ignited only by fire.
Compared to common refrigerants, R32 is no harm to the ozonosphere.
The influence upon the greenhouse effect is also lower. R32 has got very good
thermodynamic features which lead to a really high energy efficiency.
The units therefore need a less filling.
Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other than those
recommended by the manufacture. Should repair be necessary, contact your nea-
rest authorized Service Centre. Any repairs carried out by unqualified personnel
may be dangerous. The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously
operating ignition sources. (for example: open flames, an operating gas appliance
or an operating electric heater.) Do not pierce or burn.
For repairs, strictly follow manufacturer’s instructions only.
Be aware that refrigerants may not containan odour. Read specialist’s
manual.
The appliance is using mildly flammable refrigerant R32 and tested to comply with
IEC 60335-2-40. There is no minimum room area requirement for the appliance.
WARNING:Appliance filled with mildly flammable refrigerant R32.
If the refrigerant is leaked and exposed to external ignition source,
there is a risk of fire.
CAUTION:Before use the appliance,read the user's manual first.
CAUTION:Information is available such as the user's manual first.
CAUTION:Before repair the appliance ,read the service manual first.
