DISPOSAL OF YOUR PRODUCT:
To minimise the risk to injury to children please dispose of your product carefully and
safely. Remove all doors and lids (where fitted). Remove the mains cable (where fitted) by
cutting off flush with the appliance and always ensure that no plug is left in a condition
where it could be connected to the electricity supply.
To help the environment, Local Authority instructions should be followed for the disposal
of your product.
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of
in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected
separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they
contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment.
The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your
obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately
collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information
concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
