9. WASTE MANAGEMENT
Old appliances should not simply be disposed of with normal household waste,
but should be delivered to a collection and recycling centre for electric and
electronic waste. Old appliances are not unusable waste. A lot of valuable
resources can be gained by serious waste management.
Materials used inside the appliance are recyclable and are labelled with
information concerning this. By recycling materials or other parts from used
devices you make a significant contribution to the protection of our
environment.
Packaging
The packaging is recyclable. The recommended modus operandi is:
Dispose of any paper and cardboard into the corresponding containers.
Dispose of any plastics into the corresponding containers.
If a suitable container is not available in your residential area, you can dispose
of these materials with your domestic waste; but it would be better to take it to
an appropriate facility for waste recycling.
WARNING!
While unpacking, the packaging materials (polythene bags, polystyrene
pieces, etc.) should be kept away from children. CHOKING HAZARD!
These materials can be recycled when you depose them of in a suitable collecting
container of your local facilities.
Appliance
Do not dispose of the appliance with your domestic waste.
Waste separation is essential so that the single components of the appliance will
be recycled according to their appropriate use.
Do not dispose of electric appliances as unsorted domestic waste. Use the local
or municipal facilities for waste separation.
If electric appliances are disposed of at landfills, substances which are dangerous
to one's health can get into the ground water. Such substances will become part
of the food chain and cause damage to your health.
