Important information on environmentally compatible disposal
In certain European Union countries this appliance is not subject to the requirements of national laws
implementing the WEEE Directive; consequently, there is no obligation to observe sorted collection procedures
when disposing of the appliance in these countries.
This appliance complies with European Directive 2012/19/EC.
Where an appliance is marked with the crossed-out wheelie bin symbol, this means that, at
the end of its useful life, the product has to be disposed of separately from household waste:
it must be taken to a sorted collection centre for electrical and electronic appliances or
returned to the retailer when a new equivalent appliance is purchased.
The user is responsible for taking the appliance to a designated collection centre at the end
of its useful life, and liable to penalties applicable under current statutory regulations on
waste disposal.
Appropriate sorted waste collection for subsequent recycling, treatment and eco-compatible
disposal of decommissioned appliances helps to prevent any possible negative impact on the environment and
on health, and favours recycling of the materials used in the manufacture of the product.
For more detailed information on available waste collection systems, contact the local waste disposal service or
the shop where the product was purchased.
Manufacturers and importers comply with their responsibility for recycling, treating and eco-compatible disposal
of waste both directly and collectively.
