Recycling and Disposal Information

As part of Hotpoint’s continued commitment to helping the environment, Hotpoint

reserves the right to use quality, recycled components to keep down customer costs and

minimise material wastage.

Please dispose of packaging and old appliances carefully. To minimise the risk of injury to

children, remove the door, plug, and cut the mains cable off flush with the appliance. Dispose

of these parts separately to ensure that the appliance can no longer be plugged into a mains

socket and the door cannot be locked shut.
