Coolants

The heat pump is delivered with an operational filling of
R 407 C coolant. This is a chlorine-free coolant which
does not affect the Earth's ozone layer. R 407 C is nei-
ther a fire hazard nor an explosion risk.
Danger!
d
Risk of injury from freezing as a result
of contact with the R 407 C coolant!
Escaping coolant can cause freezing if
the exit point is touched:
Do not inhale gases or vapours emanat-
ing from leaks in the coolant circuit.
Avoid contact with the skin and eyes.
Note!
h
R 407 C presents no danger in normal
use and under normal conditions. With
improper use, however, it can cause inju-
ry and damage.
2.2
