DISPOSAL
The packaging of the appliance is made of recyclable materials. Dispose of the packaging in
accordance with the environmental protection regulations.
Pursuant to Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), the
crossed bin symbol on the appliance or its packaging indicates that the appliance must be
disposed of separately from other waste at the end of its useful life.
The user must therefore take the appliance to an appropriate recycling centre for electrical and
electronic equipment. Alternatively, instead of handling the disposal, the user can hand over
the appliance to the retailer when a new, equivalent one is purchased. The user can hand over
electronic products measuring less than 25 cm to retailers of electronic products having a sales area
of at least 400 m

subsequent procedure for the decommissioned appliance for recycling, which includes treatment and
environmentally friendly disposal helps prevent adverse effects on the environment and health and
promotes reusing and/or recycling materials that the appliance consists of.
