Instructions for safety and use
INFORMATION FOR USERS
Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC
relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical
and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the
crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at
the end of its useful life, must be collected separately from other refuse.
Therefore, the user must consign the product that has reached the end
of its working life to the appropriate differentiated collection centres for
electrical and electronic refuse, or deliver it back to the retailer when
purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis. Adequate
differentiated collection for the subsequent forwarding of the
decommissioned product to recycling, treatment and ecologically
compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on
the environment and on health and promotes the recycling of the
materials of which the appliance consists. The illicit disposal of the
product by the user results in the application of administrative
sanctions.
