Disposal of an old air conditioner
Before disposing an old air conditioner, please
make sure it is inoperative and carry out the
disposal by adopting all safety precautions.
Unplug it from the power line in order to avoid
risks of electric shock.
Please remember that an air conditioner
contains refrigerant fluid, requiring specialized
waste disposal.
The valuable materials contained in the air
conditioner can be recycled. Contact your local
Waste Disposal Center for adequate disposal or
contact your Dealer for any question.
Please make sure that piping of your air
conditioner does not get damaged before
being picked up by the relevant Waste Disposal
Center. You can contribute to the protection of
the environment by adopting an appropriate
anti-pollution method of disposal.
Disposal of the packaging of your new air
conditioner
All the packaging materials used in the package
of your new air conditioner can be disposed
without any danger for the environment.
The cardboard may be broken or cut into small
pieces and given to a Waste Paper Disposal
Service. The wrapping bag made of polyethylene
and the polyethylene goam pads contain no
fluorochloric hydrocarbon.
All these valuable materials may be taken to a
Waste Collecting Center and used again after
adequate recycling.
Consult your local Authorities for the name
and address of the Waste Materials Collecting
