Disposing of electrical and electronic appliances

service life. Ask your local authority for information on how to proceed. Blum electrical and electronic
appliances meet the requirements of the WEEE Directive
2012/19/EU. Electrical and electronic appliances are collected separately, which enables old appli-
ances to be reused or recycled, and their materials to be reused. This is intended to prevent any haz-
ardous materials that may be contained in the appliances from damaging the environment and health
during disposal. In most cases, the entire appliance does not need to be disposed of according to the
WEEE guidelines, but only the part that is equipped with electrical components. Please refer to the
disassembly instructions for information on this. There are free collection points for returning electrical
and electronic appliances in your area. You will find further information on this under the following link:

authority for information on how to proceed. Batteries used at Blum meet the requirements of the
Battery Directive 2006/66/EC. Batteries are collected separately, which enables the batteries or their
materials to be recycled. This is intended to prevent any hazardous materials that may be contained in
the appliances from damaging the environment and health during disposal. Please refer to the disas-
sembly instructions for information on removing batteries. There are free collection points for returning
batteries in your area. Please avoid shorting the contact surfaces when disposing of batteries.
