disposal of packaging and appliance
The packaging of this appliance is recyclable and could be
made of:
■ cardboard;
■ polythene (PE) film;
■ CFC-free polystyrene (PS – hard foam).
These materials are to be disposed of responsibly and in
accordance with government regulations.
To draw attention to the obligation to process electrical
household appliances separately, the product carries the
symbol of a dustbin with a cross through it:
This means that at the end of its working life the product
may not be disposed of as household waste, but must be
taken to a segregated waste collection centre run by the
local authorities or to a dealer providing this service.
Processing household appliances such as this hob
separately prevents negative impacts on the environment
and public health, which might otherwise result from
inappropriate processing.
It also enables the recovery of materials used in the
production of the appliance, thus realising considerable
savings in terms of both raw materials and energy.
