Environment–friendly fridge / freezer using R-600a
refrigerant and cyclopentane blowing agent
• This product protects the environment by using the R-
600a refrigerant and the cyclopentane blowing agent.
• Properties:
ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) : 0
GWP (Global Warming Potential) : Lowest
High–energy efficiency
• Optimized power consumption when using R-600a and
cyclopentane.
R-134a or R-600a is used as a refrigerant. You can check
the compressor label on the rear of the appliance and the
rating label inside the fridge.
This appliance contains a small amount of
isobutane refrigerant (R600a), a natural gas with
high environmental compatibility, but it is also
combustible. When transporting and installing the
appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts of
the refrigerating circuit are damaged.
Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause
an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames
or potential sources of ignition and air the room in which
the appliance is standing for several minutes.
• In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas-air
mixture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the
size of the room in which the appliance may be sited
depends on the amount of refrigerant used. The room
must be 1m
3 in size for every 8g of R600a refrigerant
inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your
particular appliance is shown on the identification plate
inside the appliance.
• Never start up an appliance showing any signs of
damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.
• Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure or
in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
• Do not use mechanical devices or other means to
accelerate the defrosting process, other than those
recommended by the manufacturer.
• Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
• Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage
compartments of the appliance, useless they are of a type
recommended by the manufacturer.
