Caring for the environment
Disposing of the packaging materials
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Return the packaging to your dealer.
Disposal of your old appliance
Old appliances may contain materials that can be recycled. Please contract your local recycling authority about the possibility of recycling these materials.
Instead, please contact your municipality's waste collection center to return and recycle electric and electronic appliances.
Please take care not to damage the pipework while the appliance is being stored for transport to a waste disposal facility.
By protecting the pipework, you help keep the coolants and compressor oil from contaminating the environment.
Before discarding an old appliance disconnect it from the electrical supply and cut off the power cord to prevent it from becoming a hazard.
