WARNINGS ASSOCIATED WITH ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
• The power supply to the appliance must be protected by a dedicated 30 mA Residual
Current Device (RCD), complying with the standards and regulations in force in the
country in which it is installed.
• Do not use any extension lead when connecting the appliance; connect the appliance
directly to a suitable power supply.
• A suitable disconnection method, compliant with all local and national regulations on
category III overvoltage, and which disconnects all poles of the power supply circuit,
must be installed on the power supply circuit to the appliance. This disconnection
method is not provided with the appliance and must be supplied by the professional
fitter.
• Before carrying out any operations, check that:
- The required input voltage indicated on the appliance information plate corresponds
to the mains voltage;
- The mains supply is compatible with the appliance's electricity needs and is
correctly grounded.
• In the event of abnormal operation or the release of odours from the appliance,
turn it off immediately, unplug it from its power supply and contact a professional.
• Before servicing or performing maintenance on the appliance, check that it is
powered off and completely disconnected from the power supply. Moreover, check
that the heating priority (where applicable) is deactivated and that any other device
or accessory connected to the appliance is also disconnected from the power supply.
• 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, an authorised
representative or a repair facility
• 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.
• For any component or sub-assembly containing a battery: do not recharge or
dismantle the battery, or throw it into a fire. Do not expose it to high temperatures
or direct sunlight.
• In stormy weather, disconnect the appliance from the power supply to prevent it
from suffering lightning damage.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water (with the exception of cleaners) or mud.
WARNINGS CONCERNING APPLIANCES CONTAINING R410A REFRIGERANT
• Do not discharge R410A fluid into the atmosphere. This is a fluorinated greenhouse
gas, covered by the Kyoto Protocol, with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) = 2088
(European regulation EU 517/2014).
• In order to comply with the applicable standards and regulations in terms of the
environment and installation, in particular Decree No. 2015-1790 and/or European
regulation EU 517/2014, a leak test must be performed on the cooling circuit when
the appliance is first started and at least once a year. This operation must be carried
out by a specialist certified to test cooling appliances.
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 coolant 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 coolant.
• During the appliance's annual sealing test in accordance with applicable legislation,
2
only.
