disposal of appliance and packaging
APPENDIX
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 accor-
dance with government regulations.
To draw attention to the obligation to process electrical house-
hold 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 pre-
vents 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.
