Disposal of the Dishwasher
• When disposing your old dishwasher, first make it unusable.
Disconnect the hoses and unplug the mains cable. Cut
off the mains cable from the dishwasher. Make the door
lock inoperative, so that children cannot accidentally shut
themselves in. Make appropriate arrangements for the
disposal of the dishwasher.
• At the end of its working life, the product must not be
disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special
local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to
a dealer providing this service. Disposing of a household
appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences
for the environment and health deriving from inappropriate
disposal and enables the constituent materials to be
recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and
resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household
appliances separately the product is marked with a crossed
out wheeled dustbin.
• Please ensure that it presents no danger to children while
being stored for disposal.
