Protecting the environment
Separate collection. This product
must not be disposed of with

replacement, or if it is of no further use
to you, do not dispose of it with
household waste. Make this product
available for separate collection.

products and packaging allows
materials to be recycled and
used again. Re-use of recycled
materials helps prevent
environmental pollution and
reduces the demand for raw
materials.

sites or by the retailer when you
purchase a new product.
