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 2002/96/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.
