Waste Disposal Advice
Packaging from your new machine
Dispose of all packaging materials properly.
Packaging materials are not toys.
Processing and reuse saves raw materials and reduces
waste volumes.
The packaging can be returned to the retailer or sup-
plier.
All packaging materials used are environmentally friendly
and reusable. All card is made of 80-100% recycled paper.
Wood is not chemically treated. Films are made of poly-
ethylene (PE), banding is made of polypropylene (PP).
These materials are pure hydrocarbon compounds and
are recyclable.
Disposal of your old machine
Worn out machines should be made unusable:
After unplugging the machine or after an electrician has
removed the connection, cut through and remove the
mains cable. Destroy or remove the door lock so that
playing children cannot become locked in and put their
lives at risk.
Components from your old machine must not be
reused.
The old machine contains valuable materials which
should be sent for recycling.
Please ensure that your old machine is disposed of
pro perly.
Please do not keep your old machine and under no
circumstances dispose of it in your normal waste.
Additional information on the recyc ling of this product
can be obtained from your commune, your waste
disposal contractor or the shop in which you bought the

In this way you can help to ensure environmentally
friendly disposal and/or recycling methods.
