Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage
during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected
from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and
should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the man-
ufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
Disposing of your old machine
Old electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materi-
als. However, they also contain harmful substances which were es-
sential for their correct functioning and safety. These could be haz-
ardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with
household waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore,
dispose of your old machine with household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection/recyc-
ling centre for electrical and electronic appliances. Consult your
dealer if necessary.
Please ensure that your old machine poses no risk to children while
being stored for disposal.
