CONTENTS
In accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU and Polish legislation regarding used
electrical and electronic goods, this appliance is marked with the symbol of the crossed-out
waste container.
This marking indicates that the appliance must not be disposed of together with other
household waste after it has been used. The user is obliged to hand it over to waste col-
lection centre collecting used electrical and electronic goods. The collectors, including local
collection points, shops and local authority departments provide recycling schemes. Proper
handling of used electrical and electronic goods helps avoid environmental and health haz-
ards resulting from the presence of dangerous components and the inappropriate storage
and processing of such goods.

For many years, Amica has consistently pursued pro-ecological policy.
Concern for the environment is as important for us as the use of modern technology.
The development of technology has enabled our factories to become more environmentally
friendly – we use less and less water, electricity and less waste water and solid waste is gener-
ated in the production.
A lot of attention is paid to materials used in production. We strive to use only those that do not
contain harmful substances and make recycling and safe disposal possible after use.
