Disposing of old electrical
devices in an environmentally
friendly manner
Electrical appliances contain harmful
substances as well as valuable re-
sources.
Every consumer is therefore required
by law to dispose of old electrical applianc-
es at an authorised collection or return point.
They will thus be made available for environ-
mentally-sound, resource-saving recycling.
You can dispose of old electrical appliances
free of charge at your local recycling centre.
Please contact your dealer directly for more
information about this topic.
Disposing of activated
charcoal filters
You can dispose of activated charcoal filters
with your household waste.
Packaging
Our packaging is manufactured from
environmentally friendly, recyclable
materials:
– Outer packaging made of cardboard
– Moulded parts made of foamed, CFC-free
polystyrene (PS)
– Films and bags made of polyethylene (PE)
– Tension bands made of polypropylene
(PP).
If you have the space available, we recom-
mend storing the packaging at least for the
duration of the warranty period. If the ap-
pliance needs to be sent out for repairs or
brought to a repair centre, only the original
packaging will provide sufficient protection.
If you would like to dispose of the packag-
ing, please dispose of it in an environmentally
friendly way.
