Caring for the environment

Disposal of packaging material
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.

Disposing of your old appli-
ance
Electronic and electrical appliances
contain many valuable materials. They
also contain certain materials, com-
pounds, and components which were
essential for their correct functioning
and safety. These could be hazardous
to your health and to the environment if
disposed of with general waste or if
handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with general waste.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal
points to dispose of and recycle electri-
cal and electronic appliances. By law,
you are solely responsible for deleting
any personal data from the appliance
prior to disposal.
Take care not to damage your refrigera-
tion appliance's pipework before or dur-
ing transportation to an authorized col-
lection depot.
This is to ensure that coolant in the
cooling circuit and oil in the compressor
is contained, and will not leak into the
environment.
Please ensure that your old appliance
poses no risk to children while being
stored for disposal. For additional infor-
mation, see "IMPORTANT SAFETY IN-
STRUCTIONS" in these operating and
installation instructions.
