Disposal
Any damaged or disposed devices must be
delivered to appropriate collection centres.
Transport packaging disposal
The packaging protects the machine against damage
during transport. Packaging materials are usually chosen
based on environment aspects and waste treatment
principles and are therefore recyclable. Returning the pa-
ckaging into material circulation saves raw materials and
reduces waste production. Parts of packagings (e.g. foils,
styropor®) can be dangerous for children.
Risk of suffocation!
Keep parts of the packagings out of reach of children
and dispose them as soon as possible.
