Disposal of the packing mate‐
rial
The cardboard box and packing materi‐
als protect the appliance during ship‐
ping. They have been designed to be
biodegradable and recyclable.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of children. Dan‐
ger of suffocation!
Disposal of your old appliance
Old electrical and electronic appliances
often still contain valuable materials.
However, they also contain harmful
substances that were essential for the
proper functioning and safe use of the
equipment. Handling these materials
improperly or disposing of them in your
household waste can be harmful to
your health and the environment.
Therefore, please do not dispose of
your old appliance with regular house‐
hold waste.
Old appliances may contain materials
that can be recycled. Please contact
your local recycling authority about the
possibility of recycling these materials.
Please be sure that your old appliance
does not pose a danger to children
while being stored for disposal.
