Instructions for disposal

3. ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

3.1 Our environmental responsibility

Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC relating to

the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic

appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the crossed out bin symbol on

the appliance indicates that at the end of the useful life of the product, it must be

collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, at the end of the product's

working life, the user must deliver it to the appropriate differentiated collection

centres for electrical and electronic waste, or deliver it back to the retailer when

purchasing an equivalent product, on a one-for-one basis. Adequate

differentiated collection for the subsequent forwarding of the decommissioned

product to recycling, processing and ecologically compatible disposal

contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the environment and on

health, and promotes recycling of the appliance's constituent materials. Illicit

disposal of the product by the user will lead to the application of administrative

sanctions.

The product does not contain substances in quantities sufficient to be

considered hazardous to health and the environment, in accordance with

current European directives.

3.2 Your environmental responsibility

Our product's packing is made of non-polluting materials, which are therefore

compatible with the environment and recyclable. Please help by disposing of the

packaging correctly. You can obtain the addresses of collection, recycling and

disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local organisations.

Do not discard the packaging or any part of it, or leave it unattended. It can

constitute a suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.

Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.

Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for the

collection of electrical appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal enables

intelligent recovery of valuable materials.

Before disposing of your appliance it is important to remove doors and leave

shelves in the same position as for use, to ensure that children cannot

accidentally become trapped inside during play. It is also necessary to cut the

connecting cable to the power grid, removing it along with the plug.
