DISPOSAL OF USED EQUIPMENT
PART - 8.
This device has been designed and manufactured of high-quality reusable materials and
components.
The symbol of the crossed waste container placed on the product (Fig. A) means that the
product is subject to selective collection in accordance with the provisions of Directive
2012/19/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council. A crossed-out wheelie bin
symbol (Fig. B) placed on the product means that the product contains batteries that are
subject to separate collection in accordance with the provisions of Directive 2006/66/EC
of the European Parliament and of the Council. Such marking informs that electrical and
electronic equipment and batteries (if any) must not be disposed of with other household
waste after the period of use.
The user is obliged to return waste equipment and batteries (if any) to collection points for
waste electrical and electronic equipment and batteries (if any). Collectors of such waste,
including waste equipment collectors, treatment plants, distributors (shops), municipal waste
separate collection points (municipal units), and other entities specified by law form
an appropriate system to return this kind of equipment.
Correct disposal of waste equipment and batteries (if any) allows avoiding consequences
that may be harmful to health and the environment, caused by the possible presence
of hazardous components in the equipment and batteries, and inappropriate storage and
processing of such equipment and batteries. Households play an important role
in contributing to the reuse and recovery, including recycling, of waste equipment. At this
stage, attitudes are formed, affecting the common good, which is a clean natural
environment.
Moreover, households are one of the largest users of small equipment and the rational
management thereof at this stage affects the recovery of secondary raw materials.
Penalties may be imposed in accordance with national legislation for improper disposal
of this product.
If the device has a lock, please remove it for the safety of all persons who may later come
into contact with the device.
Some refrigerators and freezers contain insulation material and CFC refrigerant. Therefore,
be careful not to pollute the environment when you dispose of your old refrigerator.
