Protecting the environment

Separate collection. This
product must not be disposed of
with normal household waste.
Should you find one day that your Black &
Decker product needs replacement, or if it
is of no further use to you, do not dispose
of it with household waste. Make this
product available for separate collection.
Separate collection of used
products and packaging allows
materials to be recycled and
used again. Re-use of recycled
materials helps prevent
environmental pollution and
reduces the demand for raw
materials.
Local regulations may provide for
separate collection of electrical products
from the household, at municipal waste
sites or by the retailer when you purchase
a new product.
Black & Decker provides a facility for the
collection and recycling of Black & Decker
products once they have reached the end
of their working life. To take advantage of
this service please return your product to
any authorised repair agent who will
collect them on our behalf.
You can check the location of your
nearest authorised repair agent by

contacting your local Black & Decker
office at the address indicated in this
