Caring for the environment

Disposing of the packaging
materials
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of children. Return
the packaging to your dealer.

Disposal of your old appliance
Old appliances may contain materials
that can be recycled. Please contact
your local recycling authority about the
possibility of recycling these materials.
Instead, please contact your
municipality's waste collection center to
return and recycle electric and
electronic appliances.
Please take care not to damage the
pipework while the appliance is being
stored for transport to a waste disposal
facility.
By protecting the pipework, you help
keep the coolants and compressor oil
from contaminating the environment.
Before discarding an old appliance
disconnect it from the electrical supply
and cut off the power cord to prevent it
from becoming a hazard.
