7.3 Equipment disposal at end of
operation
Respect the laws in force in the country of use of the machine,
in relation to the use and disposal of the products used for the
cleaning and maintenance of the machine, as well as observe
what the manufacturer of these products recommends.
When disposing of a thermodisinfector, it is necessary to re-
member that it can still be contaminated by blood and other
organic liquids, pathogenic germs, genetically modified mate-
rial, toxic or carcinogenic substances, heavy metals, etc. and,
therefore, it must be decontaminated before its disposal.
For safety and environmental protection reasons, dispose of
all chemical residues in compliance with applicable legislation.
When performing this operation, use protective goggles and
gloves.
Remove or damage the door lock so that no one can get closed
inside the machine, e.g. playing children. Finally, deliver the
machine to a suitable and authorised collection centre.
The electrical and electronic devices to be disposed of contain
reusable materials.
They also contain components harmful for the environment, but
necessary for the correct operation and safety of the equipment.
If they are not disposed of correctly or are disposed of as house-
hold waste, these components can damage human health and
the environment. Never dispose of the old thermodisinfector
among conventional waste.
Unauthorised product disposal by the user entails the appli-
cation of very strict administrative sanctions provided for by
current legislation. Enquire about this at your local dealer.
Depending on the country in which one resides and the reg-
ulations in force, one is obliged to delete the data referring to
people and stored on the machine.
Finally, make sure that the old equipment is kept out of
reach of children until its actual disposal.
