Preparation
Disposal of your old air conditioner
Before disposing of an old air conditioner that goes out of use, please make sure it
is inoperative and safe. Unplug the air conditioner in order to avoid the risk of child
entrapment.
It must be noted that the air conditioner system contains refrigerant, which requires
specialized waste disposal. The valuable materials contained in an air conditioner
can be recycled. Contact your local waste disposal center for proper disposal of an
old air conditioner and contact your local authority or your dealer if you have any
questions. Please ensure that the tubing of your air conditioner does not get
damaged prior to being picked up by the waste disposal center, and contribute to
environmental awareness by insisting on an appropriate, antipollution method of
disposal.
Disposal of the packaging of your new air conditioner
All the packaging materials employed in the packaging of your new air conditioner
may be disposed without any danger to the environment.
The cardboard box may be broken up or cut into smaller pieces and given to a
waste paper disposal service. The wrapping bag made of polyethylene and the
polyethylene foam pad contain no fluorochloric hydrocarbon.
All these valuable materials may be taken to a waste collecting center and used again
after adequate recycling.
Consult your local authorities for the name and address of the waste materials collecting
center and waste paper disposal service nearest your home or office.
