Disposal of the packaging
The packaging bears the Green Dot mark.
Dispose of all the packaging materials such as
cardboard, expanded polystyrene and plastic wrapping
in the appropriate bins. In this way you can be sure that
the packaging materials will be re-used. Keep all
packaging away from small children as it may present
suffocation/choking hazard.
Disposal of equipment no longer used
According to European Directive 2002/96/EC on the
management of waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE), home electrical appliances should
not be put into the normal systems for disposal of solid
urban waste.
Outdated appliances should be collected separately to
optimise component material recovery and recycling
rates and to prevent potential harm to human health and
the environment. The symbol of a rubbish container
superimposed by a diagonal cross should be put on all
such products to remind people of their obligation to
have such items collected separately.
Consumers should contact their local authorities or
point of sale and request information on the appropriate
places to leave their old home electrical appliances.
Before disposing of your appliance, render it non-usable
by pulling out the power cable, cutting it off and
disposing of it.
