The Refrigerant R290

To realize the function of the air conditioner unit, a special refrigerant circulates in the

system. The refrigerant is the fluoride R290 = 3 GWP (Global warming potential). This

refrigerant is flammable and inodorous. It can lead to explosions under certain

conditions, however the flammability of this refrigerant is very low and it can be ignited

only by fire.

Compared to other common refrigerants, R290 is a non-polluting refrigerant with no harm

to the ozonosphere and a no effect upon the greenhouse effect. R290 has very good

thermodynamic features which lead to a really high energy efficiency. The units therefore

need less filling.

Warning:

Do not try to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean the appliance in different ways other

than those recommended by the manufacturer. Should repair be necessary, contact your

nearest authorized Service Centre. Any repairs carried out by unqualified personnel may be

dangerous. The appliance has to be stored in a room that doesn’t have any continuously

operating ignition sources. (for example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an

operating electric heater.) Do not pierce or burn.

Appliance has to be installed, used and stored in a room with a floor area larger than 4 m2.

For repairs, strictly follow manufacturer’s instructions only for appliances filled with R290

flammable gas. Be aware that refrigerants do not have any odour.

Appliance is filled with flammable gas R290.

Before installing and using the appliance, read the

owner manual.

Before installing the appliance, read the installation

manual.

Any repairs you need, contact the nearest authorized

Service Centre and strictly follow manufacturer’s
