Hotpoint BL31 - Manual (Page 4)

Installing Your Integrated Appliance
Please read through this section before
starting any work.
The installation location should be in a dry,
well ventilated room. The appliance should
not be exposed to direct sunlight and should
not be near a heat source (e.g. a radiator,
cooker). If required, use an insulating plate.
Warning!
The appliance contains the environmentally
friendly but flammable refrigerant R600a.
Ensure that the refrigerant circuit is NOT
damaged during transportation and
installation.
Leaking refrigerant may ignite or cause eye
injuries.
The more refrigerant in an appliance, the
larger the room must be in which the
appliance is situated. If a leak occurs in a room
which is to small, a flammable gas-air mixture
may form.
The room must be at least 1 m 3 per 8g of
refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in
your appliance is indicated on the rating
plate located inside the appliance, on the
bottom left hand side.
If refrigerant is leaking out:
● Avoid naked flames and ignition sources
near the installation location.
● Unplug the appliance and thoroughly
ventilate the room for several minutes.
Installation of the appliance under the
worktop
Although you will need to provide all tools
required for the installation, all fittings are
supplied with the appliance.
