Safety Devices Appliance switch Lock trigger gun Overflow valve with pressure switch Proper use Environmental protection The packaging material can be recycled. Please arrange for the environmentally appropriate dis- posal of the packaging. Old appliances contain valuable recyclable mate- rials that should be recycled properly. Please ar- range for the environmentally appropriate disposal of the old devices. Electrical and electronic devices often contain components which could potentially pose a dan- ger to human health and the environment if han- dled or disposed of incorrectly. However, these components are necessary for the proper opera- tion of the device. Devices marked with this sym- bol must not be disposed of with regular house- hold rubbish. Cleaning operations which produce oily waste wa- ter, e.g. engine washes, underbody washes, may only be carried out using washing stations equipped with an oil separator. Work with detergents must only be performed on liquid-tight work surfaces with a connection to the sewer system. Do not let release detergent into waters or earth. 9EN– 5 The scope of delivery of the device (depending on the model) is illustrated on the packaging.
