Caring For The Environment - Miele PW 6163 Operating And Installation Instructions

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect against transportation damage.
The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are
environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the man-
ufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites. Your dealer will take the packaging materials away.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials.
They also contain specific materials, compounds and components,
which were essential for their correct function and safety. These
could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if dis-
posed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please
do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household
waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recyc-
ling centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your
dealer or Miele for advice. You are also responsible (by law, depend-
ing on country) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on
the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your old appli-
ance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.
