Disposal

 Disposal of packaging materials: observe local legislation

so that the packaging may be reused.

 The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that

household appliances should not be disposed of using the

normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances

should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost

of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine,

while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and

to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all

products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding

separated waste collection.

For further information relating to the correct disposal of

household appliances, owners may contact the relevant

public authority or the local appliance dealer.
