pipe work 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
standing for several minutes.
WARNING

04_ Safety information
- In order to avoid the creation
of a flammable 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 1m³ in size for every
8g of R-600a refrigerant
inside the appliance. The
amount of refrigerant in your
particular appliance is shown
on the identification plate
inside the appliance.
- If the appliance contains
isobutane refrigerant
(R-600a), a natural gas
