Caring for the Environment
Responsible disposal of the packaging
The packaging of your appliance has been selected from environmentally friendly materials and
can usually be recycled. Please ensure these are disposed of correctly.
Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and young children, please ensure all
packaging materials are out of reach and are safely disposed of. Please ensure they are offered
for recycling rather than throwing these materials away.
Responsible disposal of the appliance
At the end of its working life, do not throw this appliance out with your household rubbish. An
environmentally friendly method of disposal will ensure that valuable raw materials can be
recovered and used again
.
Electrical and electronic appliances contain materials and substances which, if handled or
disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous on the environment and human health.
Observe any local regulations regarding the disposal of electrical consumer goods and dispose
of it appropriately for recycling and recovery of the refrigerant. This appliance contains the
flammable refrigerant isobutane (R600a) and cyclopentane (R141b) in the cabinet insulation,
and must be disposed of in a separate waste collection. Contact your local authorities for advice
on recycling facilities in your area.
Take care not to damage the pipework at the back of the appliance before or during
transportation so that the refrigerant gas cannot escape.
The plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind the appliance or the
machine to prevent misuse.
DANGER.
Risk of child entrapment: When discarding a fridge or freezer, make sure to take off
the door and the spring action or bolt catch. Leave the shelves in place so that children cannot
easily climb in, get trapped inside and suffocate.
