Disposing of the appliance
Old devices must not be dis-
posed of with household waste!
If the appliance can no longer be
used,
every user is required by
law
to dispose of old appliances separately
from their household waste, e.g. at a collec-
tion point in their community/borough. Waste
electrical equipment is accepted free-of-
charge there. This ensures that old devices
are recycled in a professional manner and
also rules out negative consequences for the
environment.
For this reason, electrical equipment is
marked with the symbol shown here.
