Disposal
Do not dispose of electrical appliances in mixed urban waste,
use separate collection services. Contact the local council for
information about available collection systems. If electrical
appliances are disposed of in landfills or in inappropriate
places, hazardous substances can escape into groundwater
and enter the food chain, damaging health and well-being.
When replacing old appliances with new ones, the retailer is
legally obliged to accept the old appliance for free disposal.
