W
hen disposing of packaging material: observe local
legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
The European Directive 2002
/
96
/
EC relating to
W
aste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(
W
EEE) states that household appliances should
not be disposed of using the normal solid urban
waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be
collected separately in order to optimise the cost
of re-using and recycling the materials inside the
machine, while preventing potential damage to
the atmosphere and to public health. The
crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to
remind the owner of their obligations regarding
separated waste collection.
Exhausted appliances may be collected by the
public waste collection service, taken to suitable
collection areas in the area or, if permitted by
current national legislation, they may be returned
to the dealers as part of an exchange deal for a
new equivalent product.
All major manufacturers of household appliances
participate in the creation and organisation of
systems for the collection and disposal of old and
disused appliances.

You can help to reduce the peak load of the
electricity supply network companies by using the
oven in the hours between late afternoon and the
early hours of the morning.
Always keep the oven door closed when using the
GRILL and DOUBLE GRILL modes. This will
achieve better results while saving energy
(approximately 10%).
Check the door seals regularly and wipe them
clean to ensure they are free of debris so that
they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding
heat dispersion.
