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)
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning
used electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic equipment -
WEEE). The guideline determines the
framework for the return and recycling of used
appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
