Severe warning signs for transportation and site
WARNING
• When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken
to ensure that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are damaged.

injury.
If a leak is detected, avoid any naked ames or potential sources of
ignition and air the room in which the appliance is standing for several
minutes.
• In order to avoid the creation of a ammable gas-air mixture if a leak
in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the
appliance may be sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used.
• Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage.
If in doubt, consult your dealer. The room where the refrigerator will be
sited must be 1 m³ in size for every 8 g of R-600a refrigerant inside the
appliance.
The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the
identication plate inside the appliance.
