TRANSPORT, STORAGE AND RECYCLING INSTRUCTIONS
• The unit must be transported according to the pictograms on the packaging.
• The unit must be transported and stored in dry conditions and freezing conditions must be
avoided.
EU directive 2002/96/EC requires selective collection and recycling of used electric and
electronic devices.
• The “rubbish bin with a cross” symbol on the device indicates that the product must be dis-
posed of separately from standard household waste at the end of its useful life, and must
be brought to a waste sorting centre for electrical and electronic devices or returned to the
seller when a replacement unit is purchased.
• Selective sorting, which allows a unit to be recycled at the end of its useful life and pro-
cessed in a manner that respects the environment, helps to avoid potentially harmful eects
on the environment and promotes recycling of the components that make up the product.
• To find out more about existing waste collection centres, check with your local waste collec-
tion service or the store where you purchased your unit.
• The packaging protects your water heater from damage during transport. We use materials
selected for the purposes of environmental protection.
We request that you return these materials to your nearest recycling or waste collection
centre.
• If the unit comes with rechargeable batteries, these must be removed before the unit is
discarded, and must be disposed of in a safe way. These batteries must be removed from
their housing, which is accessible under the plastic cover.
