Introduction
The appliance has been manufactured using high quality materials that can be reused
or recycled. Dispose of the appliance in a suitable waste collection centre.
To rule out any abuse and dangers involved, ensure that the machine cannot be
plugged into the mains before delivering it to the scrapping service.

as possible to the machine.
Directions for correct disposal of the product according to European Directive
2002/96/EC and Italian Legislative Decree no. 151 dated 25 July 2005. At the end of
its useful life, the product should not be disposed of with unsorted household waste.
It should be taken to a suitable selective waste collection centre set up by the local
authorities or returned to a retailer who provides this service. Separate collection of
an electric household appliance avoids a possible negative impact on the environ-
ment and health arising from improper disposal and enables the materials it is made
of to be recovered so as to achieve signifi cant savings of energy and resources. The
crossed-out wheelie bin symbol applied on the product highlights the need to dispose
of electric appliances separately. Improper disposal of the product by the user shall be
subject to specifi c administrative sanctions as provided for under current regulations.
The packaging is made from recyclable materials. Contact the competent authorities
for information regarding local legislation.
Descale the appliance regularly, following the instructions provided. If you do not, the appli-
ance may be damaged and may become harmful to your health.
Clean the appliance carefully and regularly. If it is not cleaned, the build-up that forms may be
hazardous to your health. Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool before cleaning.
If you do not expect to use the appliance for a long period of time (leaving on vacation, etc.),
unplug it.
