cutting off the power cord. Do so only after unplugging it from the mains!
Do not dispose of the machine as ordinary rubbish, but leave it with
personnel, qualified to collect such material. In this way it will be properly
disposed of and recycled. This is a valuable aid for safeguarding our
environment!

way it will be properly disposed of, but most of all it will be possible to
recycle components, and reuse them to make other objects, safeguarding
the environment, which belongs to all of us.
