only the materials which are strictly necessary to guarantee
efficient protection during transport. These materials are 100%
recyclable, thus reducing the environmental impact. You can
also contribute to caring for the environment by following the
advice below:
Dispose of the packaging in the appropriate recycling bin.

Before you get rid of an old appliance, make sure you disable
■
it. Contact your local authority to find out the address of your
nearest recycling centre to dispose of your appliance.
Do not pour used oil down the sink. Collect it in a sealed

failing that, place it in the rubbish bin (it will end up in a
