Hoshizaki HNC-150-BE-L-B [4/41] Safety instructions

1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The following instructions contain important safety precautions and should be strictly

observed. The terms used here are dened as follows:

WARNING: There is a possibility of death or serious injury for the service person and

a third party or the user due to improper service operations or defects in

serviced products.

CAUTION: There is a possibility of injury for the service person and a third party or the

user or damage to their property* due to improper service operations or

defects in serviced products.

* The term “damage to their property” here refers to extensive damage to household

effects, houses and pets.

WARNING

1. Always ask the user to keep children away from the work area. They may be injured by

tools or disassembled products.

2. When there is no need to energize the unit during disassembly or cleaning, be sure to

unplug the unit or disconnect the main power supply before servicing the unit to prevent

electric shocks.

3. If the unit must be energized for inspection of the electric circuit, use rubber gloves to

avoid contact with any live parts resulting in electric shocks.

4. Keep the following in mind when servicing the refrigeration circuit:

(1) Be sure to recover the refrigerant. Do not discharge it into the atmosphere. It will

affect the environment.

(2) Check for any ames in the vicinity, and ensure good ventilation.

(3) If the refrigerant should leak in servicing, immediately put out any re used in the

vicinity.

(4) When unbrazing the refrigeration circuit connections, check that the circuit is

completely evacuated. The refrigerant may produce a poisonous gas when coming

in contact with an open ame.

(5) Do not braze in an enclosed room to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.

(6) In case of a refrigerant leak, locate and repair the leaking part completely. Leaked

refrigerant may produce a poisonous gas when coming in contact with an open

ame.
