DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS – OUR ENVIRONMENT POLICY
Our products are only packaged using non-pollutant, environment-friendly, recyclable materials. We urge you to
cooperate by disposing of the packaging properly. Contact your local dealer or the competent local organisations for
the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal facilities.
Never leave all or part of the packaging lying around. Packaging parts, and especially plastic bags, may represent a
suffocation hazard for children.
Your old appliance must also be disposed of properly.
Important:
deliver the appliance to your local organisation authorised to collect scrapped appliances. Proper
disposal allows the intelligent recovery of valuable materials. Refrigeration appliances contain gases which may
damage the environment; it is important to ensure that the refrigeration circuit pipelines are not damaged until the
competent service has taken delivery of the appliance.
Before scrapping your appliance, it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in position as for use, to ensure
that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. Also, cut the power supply lead and remove it
and the plug.
NOTICE TO USERS:
PURSUANT TO DIRECTIVES 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC, 2003/108/EC, RELATING TO THE REDUCTION
OF THE USE OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES IN ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT, AND
WASTE DISPOSAL, THE BARRED RUBBISH BIN SYMBOL ON THE APPLIANCE INDICATES THAT IT
CANNOT BE DISPOSED OF AS HOUSEHOLD WASTE AT ITS END-OF-LIFE. THE USER MUST
THEREFORE HAND THE PRODUCT OVER, AT ITS END-OF-LIFE, TO THE APPLICABLE COLLECTION
CENTRES FOR THE RECYCLING OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC WASTE, OR RETURN IT TO THE
DEALER ON PURCHASE OF ANOTHER EQUIVALENT APPLIANCE, ON A ONE-FOR-ONE BASIS.
CONSIGNING THE END-OF-LIFE APPLIANCE TO THE APPROPRIATE COLLECTION POINT FOR
RECYCLING AND ECO-COMPATIBLE TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL PREVENTS POTENTIAL
NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND HUMAN HEALTH, AND HELPS ENSURE THAT THE
PRODUCT’S COMPONENT MATERIALS WILL BE RECYCLED. UNLAWFUL DISPOSAL OF THE
PRODUCT BY THE USER MAY LEAD TO PROSECUTION.
