Environmental protection
Disposing of old
electrical devices in an
environmentally-friendly
manner
Electrical appliances
contain harmful sub-
stances as well as valu-
able resources.
Every consumer is therefore re-
quired by law to dispose of old
electrical appliances at an au-
thorised collection or return point.
They will thus be made available
for environmentally-sound, re-
source-saving recycling.
You can dispose of old electrical
appliances free of charge at your
local recycling centre.
Contact your dealer directly for
more information about this topic.
Packaging tips
Our packaging is made
from environmentally
friendly, recyclable ma-
terials:
– Outer packaging made of
cardboard
– 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 ade-
quately protected in the original
packaging.
If you would like to dispose of the
packaging, please dispose of it in
an environmentally friendly way.
