WEEE Directive
IMPORTANT ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION – EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA ONLY
This appliance has been assessed in accordance with the European Parliament
Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, usually referred to as the
WEEE Directive.
The WEEE Directive requires that the appliance be disposed of at the end of its
useful life in an environmentally responsible manner. Parts and materials should
be re-used or re-cycled in order that the use of new resources and amount of
waste going for landfill can be minimised.
The WEEE Directive stipulates that the supplier should collect the used item
without cost to you. Please inform the supplier of your wish to have the old
appliance collected when ordering the replacement.
If you wish to dispose of the appliance yourself, do not mix it with unsorted
municipal waste. The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on the unit label
(figure 21)
indicates this requirement. You must ensure that the appliance is disposed of at
an authorised treatment facility. Details can be obtained from your local council.
