Disposing of sales packaging
The packaging material protects the
vacuum cleaner from transport damage.
We recommend you keep the packaging
for transport purposes.
The packaging materials used are
selected from materials which are
environmentally friendly for disposal and
can therefore be recycled. Recycling the
packaging material reduces the use of
raw materials in the manufacturing
process and also reduces the amount of
waste in landfill sites. Make sure the
packaging is disposed of in the proper
manner for your area.
Disposal of your old appliance
Before disposing of your old appliance,
remove the fine dust filter and dispose
of it with your household waste.
Electrical and electronic appliances
contain valuable materials. They also
contain certain substances, compounds
and components which are essential for
the proper functioning and safe use of
the equipment. Handling these
materials improperly by disposing of
them in your household waste can be
harmful to your health and the
environment. Therefore, please do not
dispose of your old appliance with your
regular household waste.
Instead, use the official collection and
disposal points provided by local
authorities, dealers or Miele, in order to
dispose of and recycle electrical and
electronic appliances. You are legally
responsible for deleting any personal
data on the old appliance you wish to
en-CA - Caring for the environment
dispose of. Please ensure that your old
appliance is kept away from children
until removal.
Disposal of old batteries
Many electrical and electronic
appliances contain batteries which must
not be disposed of with household
waste after use. You are legally obliged
to remove any old batteries which are
not securely enclosed by the appliance
and take them to a suitable collection
site (e.g., retailer) where they can be
handed in free of charge. Insulate the
metal contacts with adhesive tape to
prevent short circuits. Batteries may
contain substances which can be
hazardous to human health and the
environment.
The labeling on the battery will provide
further information. For example,
batteries containing lithium are marked
"Li-ion". The bin symbol with a cross
through it means that the batteries
must not be disposed of in household
waste. We are also required to inform
you that a bin with a cross through it
which also has one or more chemical
symbols on it indicates that the battery
contains lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and/
or mercury (Hg).
Old batteries contain important raw
materials and can be recycled.
Disposing of batteries separately makes
them easier to handle and recycle.
