DISPOSAL
The product is packaged in recyclable materials. Dispose of it in compliance with the environmental
protection standards.
Pursuant to Art. 26 of Italian Legislative Decree no. 49 of 14 March 2014 “Implementation of Directive
2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)”, the crossed bin symbol on the
appliance or its packaging indicates that the product must be disposed of separately from other waste
at the end of its useful life. The user must therefore take the appliance to an appropriate recycling
centre for electrical and electronic equipment. Alternatively, instead of handling the disposal, the appliance
can be handed over to the retailer when a new, equivalent appliance is purchased. Retailers of electronic
products having a sales area of at least 400 m2 can also be handed electronic products that are to be
disposed of measuring less than 25 cm, free of charge and with no obligation to buy. Appropriate separate
collection for the subsequent procedure for the decommissioned appliance for recycling, which includes
treatment and environmentally friendly disposal helps prevent adverse effects on the environment and
health and promotes reusing and/or recycling materials that the appliance consists of.
DISPOSING OF THE BATTERY
This product contains a rechargeable Ni-MH battery.
Warning:
Do not dispose of the batteries in domestic waste: they must be disposed of separately.
Remove the batteries from the appliance
Dispose of the batteries at a specific collection centre.
REMOVING THE BATTERIES
Contact an authorised IMETEC assistance centre for the battery to be removed.
