The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
Rather than just throwing these materi-
als away, please ensure that they are
recycled.

Electrical and electronic appliances /
machines often contain materials
which, if handled or disposed of incor-
rectly, could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the cor-
rect functioning of your appliance or
machine. Please do not therefore dis-
pose of your old machine or appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local com-
munity waste collection / recycling cen-
tre and ensure that it presents no dan-
ger to children while being stored for
disposal.
It should be unplugged or discon-
nected from the mains electricity supply
by a competent person. The plug must
be rendered useless and the cable cut
off directly behind it to prevent misuse.
See the "Warning and Safety" section of
this booklet for further details.
