refroidissement peut s'enflammer et endommager les yeux.
•En cas de dommages:
oÉvitez les flammes nues et tout ce qui crée une étincelle,
oSe déconnecter de la ligne électrique,
oAérez la pièce dans laquelle se trouve l'appareil pendant plusieurs minutes, et
oContactez le service après-vente pour obtenir des conseils.
•Plus il y a de liquide de refroidissement dans un appareil, plus la pièce dans laquelle il doit être
installé est grande. En cas de fuite, si l'appareil est dans une petite pièce, il y a un risque de
formation de gaz combustibles. Pour chaque once de liquide de refroidissement, au moins 325 pieds

20
cubes d'espace sont requis. La quantité de liquide de refroidissement dans l'appareil est indiquée sur
la plaque signalétique à l'arrière de l'appareil. Il est dangereux pour quiconque autre qu'un technicien
agréé d'effectuer des réparations ou des réparations sur cet appareil.
•Faites très attention lors de la manipulation, du déplacement et de l'utilisation de l'appareil afin
d'éviter d'endommager la tubulure de réfrigérant ou d'augmenter le risque de fuite.
•Le remplacement des pièces et l'entretien doivent être effectués par du personnel de service autorisé
par l'usine afin de minimiser le risque d'allumage possible en raison de pièces incorrectes ou d'un
mauvais entretien.
