Correct use

This appliance is intended for do-

age of food and drink as well as for

food and for preparing ice. Any other
usage is not supported by the manu-
facturer and could be dangerous. The

appliance.

Technical safety

This appliance contains the coolant
Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas

which is very environment friendly. Al-
though it is flammable, it does not dam-
age the ozone layer and does not in-
crease the green house effect. The use
of this environment friendly coolant has,
however, led to a slight increase in the
noise level of the appliance. In addition
to the noise of the compressor, you
might be able to hear the coolant flow-
ing around the system. This is unavoid-
able, but does not have any adverse ef-
fect on the performance of the appli-
ance.
Care must be taken during transporta-
tion and setting up of the appliance that
no parts of the coolant system are dam-
aged. Leaking coolant can damage the
eyes.
In the event of any damage:
- avoid open fires

and anything which creates a spark,

- disconnect from the mains,
- air the room in which the appliance is

located for several minutes and

- contact the Service Department

for advice.

The more refrigerant there is in an
appliance, the larger the room it

should be installed in. In the event of a
leakage, if the appliance is in a small
room, there is the danger of combusti-
ble gases building up.
For every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m

3

room space is required. The amount of
coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.
