VI EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE
The manufacturer shall not be held liable for personal harm and/
or damage to objects deriving from incorrect commissioning and/
or by failure to comply with work accident-prevention standards.
This lack of compliance causes the warranty to terminate.
These operations are reserved exclusively for authorised
qualified personnel.
Operations concerning the refrigerant circuit must be carried
out exclusively by personnel in possession of certification
issued by an accredited body certifying the competence to
operate safely with flammable refrigerant gases.
Any maintenance/repair operation concerning the machine must
be carried out under the supervision of an authorized and
competent technician regarding the use of flammable refrigerants.
Before carrying out the operations described below, disconnect
the power supply of the machine, making sure that it can be
restored only with the consent of the personnel working on the
machine.

MAINTENANCE AND COMPONENTS REPLACEMENT
When carrying out maintenance operations, equip yourself with
the appropriate personal protective equipment (goggles, safety
shoes, gloves, etc.).
Caution: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit. During
maintenance, do not pierce or heat with a flame the refrigerant
circuit at any point or damage the external parts as this could
cause refrigerant gas leaks. In case of damage, do not use until
the machine is completely safe.
When replacing components, request only original
components. Failure to comply with this requirement may cause
injuries or damage to the machine and lead to the immediate
forfeiture of the warranty, relieving the manufacturer of any
liability for any direct or indirect damage caused.
The gas in the machine is highly flammable, gas leaks can
cause fires. In the event of a leak or suspected leak of gas from
the refrigerating circuit, do not use the machine, disconnect it
from the electrical mains and then place it in a well-ventilated
place without the presence of sources of flame ignition (open flames,
gas burners, electric heaters, lighted cigarettes, mobile phones, etc.).
Affix a warning sign on the machine in a visible position indicating a
possible gas leak and the obligation to keep any source of flame ignition
at a safe distance. Other operators who may be present in the area must
be instructed on the possible source of danger posed by the machine.
Contact the authorized technical assistance.
1.1 Refrigerant circuit interventions
Any interventions on the refrigerant circuit must be carried out
in adequately ventilated rooms and without any source of flame
ignition (e.g. open flames, gas burners, electric heaters, lit
cigarettes, mobile phones, etc.). If there are sources of ignition
that cannot be eliminated, they must be at a sufficient distance so as
not to constitute a hazard. Ventilation must be sufficient to safely
disperse any refrigerant released from the machine. It is advisable that
the room is equipped with a gas leak detection device of the type
suitable for the type of refrigerant used. Other operators possibly
present in the work area must be instructed on the type of intervention
in progress. Have a dry powder or CO
transport must be carried out in accordance with current regulations
on the transport of flammable substances.
In case of search for leaks in the refrigerant circuit, never use
possible sources of ignition of the flame. Only use gas leak
detectors specifically for flammable gases for this purpose.
Any interventions on the refrigerant circuit must be carried out
with all the machine's electrical supplies disconnected. If it is
absolutely essential to maintain the electrical connection during
the intervention, place a gas leak detector in the most critical
points to highlight the occurrence of potentially dangerous situations.
If a leak is detected in the circuit and must be repaired by
welding, it is mandatory, before proceeding, to perform the
following operations: drain the refrigerant circuit > flush the
circuit with inert gas (nitrogen) > perform the two previous
steps a second time to make sure the circuit is completely drained >
drain the refrigerant circuit > repair/replace component > leak test (p =
10-15 bar) > apply at least "optimum" vacuum using a vacuum pump of
adequate capacity and suitable for use with flammable gases category
A3 (R290).
During the next recharge make sure that there is no refrigerant
contamination.

1.2 Electric circuit checks / interventions
Before proceeding with any intervention concerning the
electrical circuit of the machine, disconnect it from the mains.
In case of checks or interventions on the electrical circuit,
avoid compromising the connections and insulation of
components and wiring. Check that they have not deteriorated
due to aging, corrosion, mechanical stress, etc. Otherwise, do
not use the equipment until the affected parts have been replaced.

DECOMMISSIONING
In accordance with European Directive 2012/19/
EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE), the presence of the symbol (fig.VI/01)
indicates that the product cannot be treated as
household waste.
The user is responsible for delivering the product
to the appropriate collection facility, as specified
by your local code.
Even packaging materials (crates or boxes) must
be divided by type and disposed of in compliance
with Standards in force in the Country where it is
used when the machine is decommissioned.
The correct disposal of WEEE allows the recovery of the raw
materials contained and the treatment of pollutants, thus avoiding negative
consequences for the environment and human health.
The packaging materials, when taken out of service, must be sorted by type
and disposed of according to the regulations in force in the country of
destination.
For more information about disposal and recycling of this product, please
contact your local authorities.
