General Maintenance

Always make sure the appliance is unplugged before performing maintenance work of any kind.
At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken
to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this service.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment
and health deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent material to be recovered
to obtain significant saving in energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household
appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
