QUATTROCODE
10 DECOMMISSIONING
The machine is durable and when properly maintained and occasionally overhauled can be used
throughout time.
Before dismantling carry out the following operations on the machine:
- Disconnect the electric circuit
- Separate the plastic and metal parts
- Remove the lithium battery from the electronic rack (fig.
49).
WARNING: the lithium battery must be disposed of in the special
containers.
This done, dismantle the machine and dispose of the various
parts according to the regulations in force in the country of
use.
• Waste disposal
EU regulations lay down specific rules for the disposal of
waste (***).
Packing
The QUATTROCODE is delivered in a cardboard cover which can be recycled as packing, if intact,
or disposed of with solid urban waste. Do not throw it out into the environment, but place it in the
special containers for cardboard.
Key-cutting machine
The machine is not only durable, but is also made of recyclable materials. Recycling is
recommended as good ecological practice.
Waste from key cutting operations
Although the waste deriving from key cutting is classified as special waste, it can be considered
metal wool and therefore be included in solid urban waste. As such, it must be disposed of in
special centres according to its classification under current Italian and EU law. In the case of
contaminating or toxic-noxious substances which transform the metal waste classifiable as solid
urban waste into toxic-noxious waste, the regulations concerning disposal of such waste in Italy
and the EU are attached in the appendix to this manual.
regarding waste from electric and electronic appliances (RAEE),
• The symbol illustrated above, also found on the machine, indicates that it has been placed on the
market and must be included in separate rubbish collection when the user wishes to dispose of it
(including all components, sub-assemblies and consumables that are integrated in the product).
• For information about the collection system for such appliances please contact SILCA S.p.A. or
another subject registered in the various National Rolls for other countries in the European Union.
Household waste (or of similar origin) can be included in the separate collection system for urban
waste.
• On purchasing a new appliance of equivalent type, the old one can be consigned to the dealer.
The dealer will then contact whoever is responsible for collecting the appliance.
• Suitable separate collection of the unused appliance and its dispatch for treatment, recovery and
environmentally compatible disposal, makes it possible to avoid potential negative effects on the
environment and human health, and aids recycling and the recovery of the materials used.
• Unauthorised disposal of the product by users involves the application of the sanctions provided
for in received Directives 91/156/CE and 91/689/CE.
(***) Waste is any substance or object deriving from human activity or natural cycles, disposed off or to be disposed off.
