Disposal
Warning Danger of suffocation!
Keep packaging parts out of the reach of children and dispose of them as soon as possible.
The packaging protects the unit from damage during transport. The packaging materials are usually selected according to environmentally compatible and disposal aspects and are therefore recyclable. Returning the packaging to the material cycle saves raw materials and reduces the amount of waste. Packaging parts (e.g. foils, Styrofoam®) can be dangerous for children.
Do not dispose of electrical appliances in household waste, use the collection points in your municipality. Ask your local authority for the locations of the collection points. If electrical appliances are disposed of in an uncontrolled manner, hazardous substances can enter the groundwater and thus the food chain during weathering, or flora and fauna can be poisoned for years. If you replace the appliance with a new one, the seller is legally obliged to accept the old one for disposal at least free of charge.
When disposing of the unit, the relevant regulations on the disposal of used oil must be followed.
Devices that are damaged and/or need to be disposed of must be handed in at the recycling points provided for this purpose.
