Caring for the environment
Disposing of the packaging material
The packaging material is used for handling and protects the
appliance from transport damage. The packaging material used is
selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for
disposal and can generally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material reduces the use of raw materials.
Use material-specific collection points for valuable materials and take
advantage of return options. Your Miele dealer will take the packaging
material away.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances contain many valuable materials.
They also contain certain materials, compounds and components
which were essential for their correct functioning and safety. These
could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if
disposed of with household waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do
not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with household waste.
Instead, please make use of officially designated collection and
disposal points to dispose of and recycle electrical and electronic
appliances in your local community, with your dealer or with Miele,
free of charge. By law, you are solely responsible for deleting any
personal data from the old appliance prior to disposal. You are legally
obliged to remove any old batteries which are not securely enclosed
by the appliance and to remove any lamps without destroying them,
where this is possible. These must be taken to a suitable collection
point where they can be handed in free of charge. Please ensure that
your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored for
disposal.
