ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS
Disposal of packaging and
appliance
In the manufacturing of this appliance use has
been made of durable materials. The
appliance packaging is recyclable. The
following may have been used:
■ cardboard;
■ polythene film (PE);
■ CFC-free polystyrene (PS hard foam);
Dispose of these materials in a responsible
manner and in accordance with government
regulations.
On the data plate is put the symbol of a
crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
This means that at the end of its working life,
the product must not be disposed of as urban
waste. It must be taken to a special local
authority differentiated waste collection
centre or to a dealer providing this service.
Disposing of a household appliance
separately avoids possible negative
consequences for the environment and health
deriving from inappropriate disposal and
enables the constituent materials to be
recovered to obtain significant savings in
energy and resources.
As a reminder of the need to dispose of
household appliances separately, the product
is marked with a crossed-out wheeled
dustbin.
