Bosch RDE1518407 Operating Instructions Manual page 4

Cleaning
Note: Mixing in of cold water at the faucet/fitting consumes unnecessary
water and energy.
This also accelerates calcification (scaling) of the appliance. Therefore,
please always set the desired temperature directly on the continuous-
flow heater.
3.7 Winter operation
Note: It is possible in winter that the supply temperature of the water
is reduced and the required outlet temperature is no longer achieved.
• Reduce the water flow on the taps until the desired water
temperature is reached.
4 Cleaning
• Only wipe off the appliance using a moist cloth.
• Do not use acidic or abrasive cleaning materials.
• Do not use a steam cleaner.
5 Customer Service
We ask you to always provide the BOSCH serial number (SNR/TTNR) of
your appliance when calling in a customer service engineer. You will find
the numbers on the ratings plate on the inner side of the front flap.

6 Environmental protection/disposal
Environmental protection is a fundamental corporate strategy of the
Bosch Group.
The quality of our products, their economy and environmental safety are
all of equal importance to us and all environmental protection legislation
and regulations are strictly observed.
We use the best possible technology and materials for protecting the
environment taking account of economic considerations.
Packaging
Where packaging is concerned, we participate in country-specific
recycling processes that ensure optimum recycling.
All of our packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be
recycled.
Used appliances
Used appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled.
The various assemblies can be easily dismantled. Synthetic materials are
marked accordingly. Assemblies can therefore be sorted by composition
and passed on for recycling or disposal.
Used electrical and electronic appliances
Electrical or electronic devices that are no longer
serviceable must be collected separately and sent for
environmentally compatible recycling (in accordance with
the European Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Directive).
To dispose of old electrical or electronic devices, you
should use the return and collection systems put in place in the country
concerned.
Batteries must not be disposed together with your household waste.
Used batteries must be disposed of in local collection systems.
Subject to change without notice.
