DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS – OUR ENVIRONMENT POLICY
Our refrigerators 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 refrigerator 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.
