WASTE DISPOSAL AND DEMOLITION
WASTE STORAGE
At the end of the product life, avoid release to the environment. The doors should be removed before
disposal.
Temporary storage of special waste is permitted while waiting for disposal by treatment and/or final
collection. Dispose of special waste in accordance with the laws in force with regard to protection of the
environment in the country of the user.
PROCEDURE FOR ROUGH DISMANTLING THE APPLIANCE
All couintries have different legislation; provision laid down by the laws and the authorised bodies of the
countries where the demolition takes place are therefore to be observed.
A general rule is to deliver the appliance to specialised collection and demolition centres. Dismantle the
refrigerator grouping together the components according to their chemical nature. The compressor contains
lubricating oil and refrigerant, which may be recycled. The refrigerator components are considered special
waste, which can be assimilated with domestic waste.
Make the appliance totally unusable by removing the power cable and any door locking mechanisms in order
to avoid the risk of anyone being trapped inside.
DISMANTLING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
THE SAFE DISPOSAL OF WASTE FROM ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT (WEEE
DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC)
Do not dump pollutant material in the environment. Dispose of it in compliance with the relevant laws.
Under the WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive 2002/96/EC, when scrapping
equipment the user must dispose of it at the specific authorised disposal centres, or reconsign it, still
installed, to the original seller on purchase of new equipment.
All equipment which must be disposed of in accordance with the WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC is marked with
a special symbol
.
The improper disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment is liable to punishment under
the relevant laws in the countries where the offence is committed.
Waste electrical and Electronic Equipment may contain hazardous substances with potential harmful
effects on the environment and human health. You are urged to dispose of them properly.
