Environmental protection
Disposing of old electrical
devices in an environmentally
friendly manner
Electrical appliances contain harm-
ful substances as well as valuable
resources.
Every consumer is therefore required
by law to dispose of old electrical appliances
at an authorised collection or return point.
They will thus be made available for environ-
mentally-sound, resource-saving recycling.
You can dispose of old electrical appliances
free of charge at your local recycling centre.
Please contact your dealer directly for more
information about this topic.
Disposing of activated
charcoal filters
You can dispose of activated charcoal filters
with your household waste.
Our contribution to the
protection of the ozone layer
Our packaging is manufactured using
environmentally friendly, recyclable
materials:
– Outer packaging made of cardboard
– Moulded parts made of foamed, CFC-free
polystyrene (PS)
– Films and bags made of polyethylene (PE)
– Tension bands made of polypropylene
(PP).
If you have sufficient space, we recommend
keeping the packaging, at least during the
warranty period. If the appliance has to be
sent in for repair or brought to one of the
repair service points, the appliance will only
be adequately protected in the original pack-
aging.
If you would like to dispose of the packag-
ing, please dispose of it in an environmentally
friendly way.
