Disposal of old electrical appliances

and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
household electrical appliances must not be disposed
of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old
appliances must be collected separately in order to
optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials
they contain and reduce the impact on human health
and the environment. 

The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the
product reminds you of your obligation, that
when you dispose of the appliance it must be
separately collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal
of their old appliance.

As part of our continued commitment to helping
the environment, we reserve the right to use

quality recycled components to keep down customer
costs and minimise material wastage.

Disposing of the packaging material: follow local 
regulations, so the packaging can be recycled.

To minimise risk of injury to children, remove the 
door and plug - then cut off mains cable, flush 
with the appliance. Dispose of these parts separately
to ensure that the appliance can no longer be 
plugged into a mains socket.
