Disposal and waste prevention
Our contribution to protecting
the ozone layer
Our packaging is made of environ-
mentally-friendly, recyclable materi-
als:
– Outer packaging made of cardboard
– Moulded parts made of foamed, CFC-free
polystyrene (PS)
– Films and bags made of polyethylene (PE)
– Tension bands made of polypropylene (PP)
– Saving energy also protects against exces-
sive global warming. Your new appliance
uses little energy due to its environmentally
friendly insulation and technology.
If you would like to dispose of the packaging,
please dispose of it in an environmentally
friendly way.
Waste prevention
According to the provisions of Directive
2008/98/EC, waste prevention measures al-
ways take priority over waste management.
For electrical and electronic devices, waste
prevention measures include extending the
lifespan of defective 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.
More information can be found in the brochure
“Waste Prevention Programme - of the Ger-
man Government with the Involvement of the
Federal Länder”.
Disposing of old electrical
devices in an environmentally-
friendly manner
Electrical appliances contain harmful
substances as well as valuable re-
sources.
Every consumer is therefore re-
quired by law to dispose of old electrical ap-
pliances at an authorised collection or return
point. They will thus be made available for
environmentally-sound, resource-saving re-
cycling.
You can dispose of old electrical appliances
free of charge at your local recycling centre.
Please contact your dealer directly for more
information about this topic.
Disposing of activated
charcoal filters
You can dispose of activated charcoal filters
with your household waste.
