bear in mind the following instructions:

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly 

manner.

The packaging of your appliance has been 

manufactured using only the materials which are strictly 

necessary to guarantee efficient protection during 

transport. These materials are 100% recyclable, thus 

reducing the environmental impact. You can also 

contribute to caring for the environment by following the 

advice below:

Dispose of the packaging in the appropriate 

recycling bin.

Before you get rid of an old appliance, make sure 

you disable it. Contact your local authority to find out 

the address of your nearest recycling centre to 

dispose of your appliance.

Do not pour used oil down the sink. Collect it in a 

sealed container and take it to an appropriate 

collection point or, failing that, place it in the rubbish 

bin (it will end up in a controlled dump; this is 

probably not the best option, but it will avoid 

contaminating ground water).
