Old appliances should not sim-
ply be disposed of with normal
household waste, but should
be delivered to a collection and
recycling centre for electric and
electronic equipment. A symbol
shown on the product, the in-
struction manual or the packaging shows that
it is suitable for recycling.
Materials used inside the appliance are
recyclable and are labelled with information
concerning this. By recycling materials or
other parts from used devices you are making
a significant contribution to the protection of
our environment.
Information on appropriate disposal centres
for used devices can be provided by your
local authority.
Using energy in a respon-
sible way not only saves
money but also helps the
environment. So let’s save
energy! And this is how you
can do it:
During transportation, pro-
tective packaging was used
to protect the appliance
against any damage. After
unpacking, please dispose
of all elements of packaging
in a way that will not cause damage to the
environment.
All materials used for packaging the applian-
ce are environmentally friendly; they are
100% recyclable and are marked with the
appropriate symbol.
Caution! During unpacking, the packaging
materials (polythene bags, polystyrene
pieces, etc.) should be kept out of reach of
children.
HOW TO SAVE ENERGY
DISPOSAL Of THE APPLIANCE
UNPACKING
■ Use appropriate cookware: flat and thick
bottom pots and pans will reduce power
consumption by up to one third. Do not for-
get to use lid to reduce power consumption
by four times!
■ Select properly sized cookware: make
sure the diameter of the pan or pot is not
smaller than the size of the burner.
■ Keep the burner surfaces and the co-
okware bottoms clean: Residues hinder
heat transfer, and lasting contamination
can be removed only by extremely harmful
chemicals. Particularly, the flame slots
of the burners must be kept clean at all
times.
■ Do not put up the cookware lids unless
really necessary.
■ Do not install the cooktop adjacently to
fridges / freezers: this increases power
consumption of the cooling appliances.
