Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other than those
•
recommended by the manufacturer.
The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition sources
•
(for example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
Do not pierce or burn. Be aware that refrigerants may not contain an odour.
•
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for
•
or detection of refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other detector using a naked
flame)shall not be used.
For leak detection, the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided.
•
If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/extinguished. Call the service
•
agent immediately and keep faraway from the product.
If disposal or decommissioning is needed, please contact the service agent or
•
authorized personal to do it. Do not dispose and decommission the product yourself.
The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.
•
The maximum refrigerant charge amount: 90g for modelFDP0-2024R5,160g for model
•
FDP26-2024R5,170g for model FDP29-2024R5.
An unventilated area where the appliance using flammable refrigerants is installed
•
shall be so constructed that should any refrigerant leak, it will not stagnate so as to
create a fire or explosion hazard.
The appliance shall be stored so as to prevent mechanical damage from occurring.
•
Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration,
•
sharp edges or any other adverse environmental effects. The check shall also take into
account the effects of aging or continual vibration from sources such as compressors or
fans.
The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for systems containing
•
flammable refrigerants.
Electronic leak detectors shall be used to detect flammable refrigerants, but the
•
sensitivity may not be adequate, or may need re-calibration.(Detectionequipment shall
be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area.) Ensure that the detector is not a potential
source of ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used.
Leak detection equipment shall be set at a percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant and
•
shall be calibrated to the refrigerant employed and the appropriate percentage of gas
(25 % maximum) is confirmed.
Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with most refrigerants but the use of
•
detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the
refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work.
If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be
•
recovered from the system, or isolated (by means of shut off valves) in a part of the
system remote from the leak.
Oxygen free nitrogen (OFN) shall then be purged through the system both before and
•
during the brazing process.
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely
