English term or phrase: sharp bends
Avoid sharp bends or possible kinking in the refrigerant lines
during installation as this may cause a reduction in
performance.

No estoy segura si en este caso se puede usar aristas vivas o codos afilados/filosos.


Gracias.

curvas aplastadas


Explanation:
Estos caños suelen ser de cobre y se doblan a mano durante la instalación, el aviso preventivo indica que, si el caño se aplasta al doblarlo, como cuando uno dobla un caño de plástico, va a tener problemas de funcionamiento (por eso dive "avoid sharp bends"
