Adding refrigerant
DANGER!
The connection of refrigerant pipes and the
handling of refrigerant may be only be carried
out by qualified personnel (competence cate-
gory I).
DANGER!
Only refrigerant in a liquid state may be used to
fill the cooling cycle!
CAUTION!
Danger of injury from refrigerant!
Refrigerant degreases the skin on contact and
may cause cold burns.
Therefore:
- Wear chemical-resistant protective gloves
when undertaking any work involving refriger-
ants.
-Safety glasses must be worn to protect the
eyes.
NOTICE!
Check the overheating to determine the refrig-
erant fill quantity.
n The outdoor unit is pre-filled with refrigerant
sufficient for a length of ordinary pipe up to 10
metres.
n If the length of any of the pipelines exceeds 10
metres, then an additional filling for each
metres of pipe length (basic length) is required.

NOTICE!
The escape of refrigerant contributes to cli-
matic change. In the event of escape, refrig-
erant with a low greenhouse potential has a
lesser impact on global warming than those
with a high greenhouse potential. This device
contains refrigerant with a greenhouse poten-
tial of 1975. That means the escape of 1 kg of
this refrigerant has an effect on global warming
that is 1975 times greater than 1 kg CO
2 ,
based on 100 years. Do not conduct any work
on the refrigerant circuit or dismantle the
device - always enlist the help of qualified
experts.
