Our contribution to
protecting the ozone
layer
Our packaging is made
of environmentally friend-
ly, recyclable materials:
– Outer packaging made of card-
board
– Moulded parts made of foamed,
CFC-free polystyrene (PS)
– Films and bags made of poly-
ethylene (PE)
– Tension bands made of poly-
propylene (PP).
If you have sufficient space, we
recommend keeping the packag-
ing, at least during the warranty
period. If the appliance has to be
sent in for repair or brought to one
of the repair service points, the
appliance will only be adequately
protected in the original packag-
ing.
Dispose of the packaging respon-
sibly.
Waste prevention
According to the provisions of
Directive 2008/98/EC, waste pre-
vention measures always take
priority over waste management.
For electrical and electronic devic-
es, waste prevention measures in-
clude extending the lifespan of de-
fective devices through repair and
reselling used working appliances
instead of disposing of them.
Please help us reduce waste and
contact our customer service if
your product is faulty.
