However, they also contain damaging substances, which were necessary for their functionality and safety. If these were put in the non-recyclable waste or were handled incorrectly, they could be detrimental to human health and the environment. Therefore, do not put your old device into the non-recyclable waste under any circumstances. Utilise the collection point, established in your town, to return and recycle old electric and electronic devices. If necessary, contact your town hall, local refuse collection service or your dealer for information. Blowing gas inside the unit is ammable. The disposal of this ammable material should be in accordance with national regulations. Ensure that your old device is stored safely away from children until it is taken away: Remove the drawer doors, the partitions and the movable inserts in the inner space, so that children cannot be accidentalyinjured.

8.1 Disposal of the packaging

The packaging protects the device against damages during transit. The packa- ging materials are selected in accordance with environmentally compatible and recycling-related points of view and can therefore be recycled. Returning the packaging back to the material loop saves raw materials and reduces the quantities of accumulated waste. Take any packaging materials that are no longer required to “Green Dot” recycling collection points for disposal. PLEASE NOTECASO Sound & Cool
