In case this appliance contains hydrocar-
bon refrigerant please refer to guidelines 
listed below. 
As the appliance contains a flammable 
refrigerant, it is essential to ensure that the 
refrigerant pipes are not damaged.
Standard EN378 specifies that the room in 
which you install your appliance must have 
a volume of 1m³ per 8 g of hydrocarbon 
refrigerant used in the appliances. This is 
to avoid the formation of flammable gas/
air mixtures in the room where the appli-
ance is located in the event of a leak in the 
refrigerant circuit. The quantity of the refrig-
erant used in your appliance is indicated on 
the rating plate. 
WARNING:   Keep ventilation openings in  
the appliance’s cabinet or in 
the built-in structure clear of 
obstruction
WARNING:   Do not use other mechanical 
devices or other means to ac-
celerate the defrosting process 
than those recommended by 
the manufacturer

system

ances inside the refrigerated

ed by the manufacturer
