6. Recycling
This crossed bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at the end of
its life, must be disposed of separately from domestic waste, either by taking it to a
separate waste disposal site for electric and electronic appliance or by returning it
to your dealer when you buy another similar appliance. The user is responsible for
taking the appliance to a special waste disposal site at the end of its life. If the disused
appliance is collected correctly as separate waste, it can be recycled, treated and disposed of
ecologically; this avoids a negative impact on both the environment and health, and contributes
towards the recycling of the product’s materials. For further information regarding the waste
disposal service available, contact your local waste disposal agency or the place of purchase.
