Once your appliance has reached the end of its service life, do not throw it away with household refuse. Bring it to a central collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic household appliances. This symbol on the appliance, the instruction manual and the packaging draws your attention to this important point. This appliance contains recyclable materials. By recycling used household appliances, you can make a significant contribution to protecting the environment. Your local council can give you further information on collection points for electrical appliances.
