not operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is
exposed to splash water or damp conditions.
Intended use
- Install and use the appliance in indoor spaces only.
2.1 Location
WARNING
Leaking coolant and oil!
Fire. The coolant contained in the appliance is eco-friendly,
but also flammable. The oil contained in the appliance
is flammable. Escaping coolant and oil can ignite if the
concentration is high enough and in contact with an
external heat source.
u Do not damage the pipelines of the coolant circuit and
the compressor.
- The best place for installation is a dry and well ventilated
room.
- If the appliance is installed in a very humid environment,
condensation can build up on the outside of the unit.
Always ensure good airlow and ventilation in the installa‐
tion location.
- The more refrigerant there is in the appliance, the larger
the space that it is installed in must be. If the space is
too small, any leak may create a flammable mixture of
gas and air. For every 8 g of refrigerant, the installation
space must be at least 1 m3. Information regarding the
coolant can be found on the serial tag inside the appli‐
ance.

2.1 Location
WARNING
Leaking coolant and oil!
Fire. The coolant contained in the appliance is eco-friendly,
but also flammable. The oil contained in the appliance
is flammable. Escaping coolant and oil can ignite if the
concentration is high enough and in contact with an
external heat source.
u Do not damage the pipelines of the coolant circuit and
the compressor.
- If the appliance is installed in a very humid environment,
condensation can build up on the outside of the unit.
Always ensure good airlow and ventilation in the installa‐
tion location.
- The more refrigerant there is in the appliance, the larger
the space that it is installed in must be. If the space is
too small, any leak may create a flammable mixture of
gas and air. For every 8 g of refrigerant, the installation
space must be at least 1 m3 . Information regarding the
coolant can be found on the serial tag inside the appli‐
ance.
