Do not disconnect and reconnect the appliance to the power supply when in operation.

Do not pull on the power cord to disconnect it from the power supply.

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its technician or a qualified person to

guarantee safety.
Do not perform maintenance or servicing operations on the appliance with wet hands or if the appliance is wet.

Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, check that the connection unit or socket to which the

appliance will be connected is in good condition and shows no signs of damage or rust.
In stormy weather, disconnect the appliance from the power supply to prevent it from suffering lightning

damage.
Do not immerse the appliance in water or mud.

WARNINGS CONCERNING APPLIANCES CONTAINING REFRIGERANT R32
R32 refrigerant is classed under category A2L as mildly flammable.

Do not release R32 fluid into the atmosphere. These are fluorinated greenhouse gases, covered by the Kyoto

Protocol, with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 675 (European regulation EU 517/2014).
The appliance must be stored in a well-ventilated location away from all ignition sources.

Install the unit outdoors. Do not install the unit indoors or in an enclosed and non-ventilated outdoor location.

Do not use means for accelerating the defrosting or cleaning process other than those recommended by the

manufacturer.
The appliance must be stored in a room without any permanent ignition source (such as open flames,

operating gas appliance or operating electric heating).
Do not perforate or incinerate.

Please note that R32 refrigerant may give off a certain odour.

In order to comply with the applicable standards and regulations in terms of the environment and installation,

in particular French decree No. 2015-1790 and/or European regulation EU 517/2014, a leak test must be
performed on the cooling circuit at least once a year. This operation must be carried out by a specialist certified
to test cooling appliances.
Please keep the display controller in a dry area, or well close the insulation cover to protect the display

controller from being damaged by humidity.
INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
The appliance may not be installed close to combustible materials, or the air duct inlet of an adjacent building.

With some appliances, it is essential to fit a "protection grid"-type accessory if the unit is installed in an area

with uncontrolled access.
During installation, troubleshooting and maintenance, pipes may not be used as steps: the pipe could break

under the weight, spilling refrigerant and possibly causing serious burns.
When servicing the appliance, the composition and state of the heat transfer fluid must be checked, as well as

the absence of any traces of refrigerant.
During the annual appliance sealing test in accordance with applicable legislation, the high and low pressure

switches must be checked to ensure that they are securely fastened to the refrigerant circuit and that they cut
off the electrical circuit when tripped.
During maintenance work, ensure there are no traces of corrosion or oil around the cooling components.

Before beginning work on the cooling circuit, stop the appliance and wait for a few minutes before fitting the

temperature and pressure sensors. Some elements such as the compressor and piping may reach temperatures
in excess of 100°C and high pressures with the consequent risk of severe burns.
Do not braze or weld the pipe if there is refrigerant inside machine. Please do not charge the gas when in a

confined space.
MAINTENANCE : WARNINGS CONCERNING APPLIANCES CONTAINING R32 REFRIGERANT
Area check
Before starting work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks must be carried out to

guarantee a minimal ignition risk.
