Transportation information
The Li-ion batteries in the appliance are subject to the
requirements of dangerous goods legislation. The batte-
ries can be transported by the user by road without any
further requirements. In the event that they are shipped
by a third party (e.g. transported by air or freight
carrier), special requirements regarding packaging and
identification must be met. In this case, a dangerous
goods expert must be consulted when preparing the
goods for dispatch.
Dispatch batteries only when the housing is undama-
ged. Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the
battery in such a manner that it cannot move around
in the packaging. Please also observe possibly more
detailed national regulations.

Disposal information

Vacuum cleaners, batteries, accessories and packaging
should be recycled in an environmentally responsible
manner.

The packaging is designed to protect the vacuum
cleaner from being damaged in transit. It is made of
environmentally friendly materials and can therefore
be recycled. Dispose of packaging that is no longer
required at an appropriate recycling point.

als. You should therefore take appliances that have
