• To accelerate the defrosting process, do not use any mechanical devices or other means (e.g. ice scrapers).
• Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
►Do not expose the device during storage and transport to temperatures higher than 70°C
(158°F).
►Avoid transmission of pulsations and vibrations to the device.
►Avoid external force upon the device such as careless movements with floor trucks or floor c
leaning machines.
►Drilling or other work on the device is not permitted.
►Do not squeeze or bend pipes.
•
Do not operate any electrical devices (e.g. wet vacuum cleaners) within the refrigerator compartment that
are not of the type recommended by the manufacturer. Devices with explosion protection markings (see →
1.2) are permitted.
• Steam or high-pressure cleaners may not be used for basic cleaning (see → Chapter 10.2.1).
• Work on the electrical system and the refrigeration system must only be performed by qualified staff (staff
trained in flammable refrigerants).
►Opening the refrigerant circuit and suctioning of the refrigerant may only be performed in a well ventilated
area outside of business hours of the market (without customer traffic) or outdoors.
►Disconnect the device before each maintenance/repair.
►Secure the device against restarting.
►During repairs, a knowledgeable person who knows the local conditions must be available as the contact
person for the AHT-authorized qualified staff.
•
Dispose of devices with flammable refrigerant and devices with insulating foam (thermal insulation polyurethane
foam with pentane) appropriately. Inquire with the responsible authorities about the safety and statutory disposal
regulations applicable to you.
The product was designed to take into account the environmental and disposal friendliness of AHT devices. The
refrigerant R-290 and the propellant pentane (for the insulating foam) do not have any ozone depletion potential
and do not contribute directly to the greenhouse effect.
