Safety instructions and regulations

This unit contains the coolant isobutane
(R 600a), a natural gas which is very
environmentally friendly but also
combustible. When transporting and
installing the unit care must be taken to
ensure that none of the refrigeration circuit
components become damaged. In the
event of damage avoid naked flames or
ignition sources and ventilate the room in
which the unit is placed for a few minutes.
How to dispose of the old unit
Before disposing of an old, scrap unit no
longer in use, it is imperative to render it
safe and inoperative at once. Disconnect
power supply plug and cut off connection
lead. Remove or destroy all spring, latch
or bolt-locks, ensuring that these have
been made totally unserviceable. This will
prevent the danger of children locking
themselves in inadvertently.
Please observe refrigeration and freezer
units contain insulating gases and coolants
which require specialised waste disposal.
They also contain valuable materials which
can be recycled. Entrust the disposal of a
scrap unit categorically to the competence
of your local waste disposal service and
contact your local authority or your dealer if
you have any questions. Please ensure that
the pipework of your refrigerating unit does
not get damaged prior to being picked-up
by the relevant waste disposal service, and
contribute to environmental awareness by
insisting on an appropriate, anti-pollution
method of disposal.
Disposing of the packaging of
your new appliance
All the packaging materials employed in the
packing of your new appliance may be
disposed of without any danger to the
environment.
Our contribution towards a cleaner
environment- we use recycled paper.
